One Dresser, Three Ways

Mar 27, 2021 | Bedrooms, Design 101

Need help stying the top of your dresser? In pictures we receive of spaces and requests for help, we see a lot of dresser tops that are eitheer too cluttered or too empty.

If your dresser top is looking a bit sad,  we want to give you 3 examples how you could style your dresser beautifully on a budget. 

Look 1

We started styling the top of the dresser with a vase with a few eucalyptus sprigs to make your room smell incredible,  and added a stylish table lamp to add a little bit of mood lighting, and a couple of candle holders with candles to help you unwind.
We also added a diffuser paired on top of a beautiful design book to this look, because we wanted it to be stylish. Making the room smell nice always helps too, right?
When you’re styling a dresser, don’t forget the wall space above the dresser. In this case, we opted for an asymmetrical gallery wall as the back drop to this gorgeous dresser.
This look is one of those more is more kinda looks and probably works if you are into maximalism.

Look 2

If you feel like Look 1 was a bit much, but you are generally onboard with the way it looks, this next Look is for you.

Look  2 aims simplify design of Look 1. We got rid of the candle holder and it immediately makes it feel like there’s a little bit more breathing room on top of the dresser.

It’s not minimal at all though because we’ve still got that gallery wall in the back and there’s still a whole lot of style being delivered in this combo. 

Look 3

This look is completely different from the previous looks.
We love the asymmetric mirror in this space and that was really the starting point for this look.
We went for a slightly more whimsical and stylish feel with this one. The red vase brings a lot of personality as does the pieces of art work leaning in front of the mirror.
We also placed a cool looking vanity box to store all your valuables.
There you go. One dresser styled in 3 different ways. Do you have a favourite?
