Matching Bedside Tables to Your Bed Height for Reading Comfort
Choosing the right bedside table height helps create a comfortable and functional reading nook in your bedroom. The perfect bedside table should align with your bed height, ensuring easy access to your holiday reads and other essentials without straining. Here’s how to achieve the ideal match:
- Measure Your Bed Height: Start by measuring from the floor to the top of your mattress. This measurement will guide you in selecting a bedside table that aligns well with your bed.
- Ideal Bedside Table Height: A general rule of thumb is to choose a bedside table that is level with or slightly lower than the top of your mattress. This allows for easy reach and helps maintain a streamlined look.
- Consider Your Reading Habits: If you frequently read in bed, opt for a bedside table that offers easy access to books and a lamp. Tables with built-in shelves or drawers provide convenient storage for your holiday reads.
- Style and Functionality: Ensure the table complements your bedroom decor while offering practical storage solutions. Look for designs that incorporate innovative book storage, such as open shelves or a combination of drawers and cubbies.
By carefully selecting a bedside table that matches your bed height, you can improve your reading comfort and create an inviting space for enjoying your favourite books. Mocka offers a range of stylish and functional options, perfect for crafting the ultimate bedroom reading nook.
