TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - A bedside table or a nightstand can make your bedroom atmosphere looks more beautiful. Besides tables, there are some other objects that are also able to make the look of the bed become more interesting, or even unique.
Here are five unusual things that can be used as a substitute for a nightstand to change the look of your bedroom:
1. Book
A stack of several thick books by the bedside can act as a nightstand. Bed lights and gadgets such as smartphones, watches, or alarm clock can be placed on the surface of the top book. These books will create an aesthetic value in a minimalist space.
2. Ladder
Besides the books, an alternative to the ordinary nightstand is a ladder. You can use small pieces of a ladder or a small folding ladder. You want to cut the ladders as you need before making it as a nightstand substitute. Then, you can repaint it to look more neat and attractive, or adjusted to the dominant color in the room. The ladder can be used to hang something.
3. Chair
If you have a single chair, try to use one or two to be placed in the bedroom both on the right and left the side of the bed near the headboard, just like the usual position of nightstands. The single chair also functions like a table. You can put a variety of objects including a night lamp on it. The look of the chair will also be very attractive.
4. Drum
A drum that has a circular surface can also be used as a nightstand and its unique shape will make the bedroom looks more aesthetic. Choose the drum size that has the same height as the bed, and then place it right next to the bed. Decorate it as unique and as you please and the drum will be a very attractive decorative table. Inside of the drum can also be used as storage.
5. Wooden Crates
An unused wooden pallet can also give a unique look to a minimalist room. Replace the nightstand function with a box of wooden pallet that resembles wooden crate. You can choose wooden pallet with a smooth surface, or a rough-textured to highlight the rustic impression.
