Buying Guide
Caroline is a young, New York-based interior designer and home decor writer, obsessed with textiles and designer furniture. Backed with rigorous training from a prestigious design school, as well as a profound understanding of material quality and fabric care, she offers spot-on advice on how to furnish your place with reliable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing pieces.
If there's one piece of furniture that's really underrated, it's definitely the bedside pedestal. So let's discuss how to decorate a pedestal side table. Aside from the nightstand giving an aesthetic appeal to the room, it also allows you the opportunity to add some unique personality and design flair to your bedroom.
When it comes to decorating your bedside pedestal, keep it simple. This doesn't necessarily mean that it should be boring, but just avoid clutter and remember that less is more. So in most cases, a lamp and a couple of well-balanced personal decor items will do the trick.
Books are a staple for bedside pedestals, especially the ones that are not read. So not only will they help to educate and enlighten you, but they'll also serve as a great piece of decor.
Natural elements will also give your bedside pedestals life and vitality. Try some miniature succulents, a bonsai tree, a large shell, or an unusual piece of driftwood to bring in a quiet and peaceful ambiance.
Lastly, add a personal touch such as an art piece or a picture frame with you and your other half.
The most common shape for a wood pedestal side table is round, perfect to make the most of its central pedestal design. Most of these models will rely on a round top surface, but they’re far from boring: you can choose among more or less decorative pedestals as well as different finishes and styles.
However, while they might be a bit harder to scout for, you can also find wood pedestal side tables in other traditional shapes (like square) and a few more creative ones (such as octagonal tables or one-of-a-kind asymmetrical pieces).
You can place your wooden pedestal side table in various locations. When placing the table in the living room, position it next to your sofa or beside an armchair. Ensure the depth of your wood pedestal side table is equal to the depth of the chair or sofa it will sit beside. For aesthetic, convenience, and accessibility reasons, it should not exceed the depth of the seating furniture.
When placed in a bedroom, pedestal side tables can sit comfortably next to a bed in place of a bedside table. A wood pedestal side table has the perfect surface space for books, lamps, and phones. You can also place your wood pedestal side table in a study. Position in between two comfy chairs and place an ambient lamp on the table to provide the perfect lighting for reading or conversation.
