Apartment Refresh: Bedside Table Makeover
posted on May 8, 2014 | by Amanda Holstein
As you all know by now, I get bored easily and will find any excuse to change up my look – whether it’s my hair, my wardrobe, or my home. I spent a lot of time on my living room this year, but recently I’ve been focusing on my bedroom. My goal was to find ways to update it without doing or spending too much. The first thing I decided needed a major refresh was my bedside table.
Before & After:
I’ve had this white IKEA one since my old apartment and it just doesn’t feel like my style anymore. This time around, I decided I wanted something modern, edgier, and more San Francisco. After looking all over the web for the perfect bedside table, I found a few amazing options on Overstock and finally went with this one (only $130!). I absolutely love it and can see it staying with me for years to come. To go with the new furniture style, I updated some of the little decor items on the bedside table. I also hung new art behind it as well. Take a look at the finished product below!
