How to: Style a bedroom dresser

Great day ladies and gents! Today I wanted to share with you some variations when it comes to styling dressers/chests. At times it may seem as though we are limited but changing even a vase can make all the difference (who would’ve thought?) When I initially purchased my dresser a few years back, I was aiming for something simple, decent in size and dark. I wanted to ensure it would be able to be transfer with the times and that I could style it the way I wanted, without the dresser being the focal point.

I ended up with the MALM 3 drawer chest in black brown from Ikea.  It’s sleek, simple and has deep drawers that can hold tons of storage.

Before we begin though, first things first. I always suggest adding a back drop to your dresser / chest. I personally prefer mirrors but a decent piece of art work (either leaned up against the wall or hung) will look just as beautiful.

For today’s how to, I used a majority of the same items but arranged them differently each time. Enjoy !
