Nightstands a must!

We decided to take the family and rent an Airbnb.  Pandemic has kept us close to home for almost a year. It is now about making the most of what we have. We have some beautiful places to visit close to home. We drove an hour and stayed at a beautiful old home (1844) right on the water. The owners bought it a month ago and are renting it out.

We had pretty well all we needed. Claw foot tub to soak in, fireplace to enjoy and enough bedrooms for everyone.  What was missing in a few bedrooms were nightstands.  Seriously no big deal until I'm in bed wondering what time it is and not wanting to get up and go over to the dresser. Yes, I know I could have left phone on the floor by bed.  

That had me thinking of nightstands and that they are a must. Somewhere to put your phone, book, lamp for reading. That was the other thing no nightstand so no lamp by  bed. They don't have to take up a lot of room. Some are simple shelves next to the bed. Here are my top takes on nightstands. Let me know your thoughts!

 

If you want extra storage in your bedroom a nightstand with drawers is a must.  Also if you don't want a cluttered top just pop your stuff into the drawer.

This one is more modern with a drawer and a shelf.  Plenty of space for lamp, book and alarm clock.  Plus space for a few of your favorite knick-knacks you might want on display.

You might have to be more tidy with this one. I love the idea of baskets and display space. 

A simple nightstand doing its job. Lamp check. Space for phone and also book. Visually not taking up hardly any space.

Visually not as heavy looking with the legs.  Plus drawer to drop stuff in.

There are also more antique looking nightstands, glass, different woods and metal.  Just make sure you have room for a lamp and somewhere for phone or alarm clock. Decision is nightstands are a must.
