How to Style a Bedroom Dresser
1. Chose an Anchor Piece
Choosing your starting point allows you to build your design around that piece. Adding a mirror, a work of art, or layering these two pieces are some of my favorite ways to style a bedroom dresser. Mirrors are functional and also combine many design elements in one piece.
2. Add in Height
Add your tallest item to one side of your dresser. Lamps and vases are excellent choices when you want to add height when decorating your bedroom dresser. If you love a piece but it is not quite the right height, you can include a riser or tray to add those extra few inches you are looking for.
3. Add Greenery
Whether you use fresh greenery and flowers or faux, adding greenery brings the outdoors in, giving your room a new, natural feeling. If you don’t have a green thumb, choose a faux greenery alternative that looks real. Stay away from the cheaper-looking options. Although some faux greens can be expensive, my bedroom dresser is styled with three stems from Ikea at a low price point and looks beautiful.
4. Curate Accent Pieces
Add accent decor that you love and that makes you feel good. Use items that work with your style, colors that coordinate with your room, and textures to give dimension. Layer books, storage boxes, candles, pottery, or unique collected items. You want the space to feel tranquil, serene, and yours.
5. Edit and Update
Ensure the styling feels balanced, whether it is symmetrical or asymmetrical. If you love change, allow a few pieces to be swapped out for the seasons. Depending on the season, things like faux stems and seasonal accents will offer subtle changes and add warm or cool tones.
