There’s nothing like a dressing table to help organise your makeup and beauty items and make a nice place to get ready. Whether you have a dedicated space in your home to make into a dressing table, or a corner of your bedroom, there are many things you can do to ensure you have a beautiful space. In this article we take a look at some top tips to help you keep your dressing table (or space) organised and looking great.
Ensure you have a good space for it
The first thing you need to think about is where you’re going to create the ideal dressing table space in your home. It could be that you choose a corner in your bedroom where you don’t know where to put anything, or if you have a spare room or study, this can be used instead. There are many useful spots you can utilise and really make the most of when it comes to creating the perfect dressing table – you could have a play around and see what works best.
Include seating
The seating you use can make or break the ideal dressing table space in your home. Look for a designer small stool for something that fits neatly into the space and also looks stylish too. Think of the colour scheme you want and something that will work in the area, tucking under the desk or space you’re using for your dressing table. Stools that swivel can also be a good idea if you have multiple mirrors and want to see your hair and make up from all different angles.
Pick your lighting carefully
When getting ready, the lighting is one of the most important factors in your decision-making. You want good enough lights to see what you’re doing to your hair and makeup and ensure it’s done evenly and neatly. Try to pick a spot with good natural light and consider investing in something such as a ring light or one that goes around your mirror. This means you can make the best beauty and hair looks with even lighting.
Maximise your storage
Storage is an equally important part of your dressing table space as you don’t want it to be cluttered with items all the time. There are many things you can use for storage, including drawers or wicker baskets which can be utilised. Consider labelling these to describe what’s in them so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for when you need it. Pinterest has a host of great dressing table storage ideas too!
These are just a few things you can do to create a dressing table space in your home. Whether it’s in the side of your bedroom, in your study or a dedicated room for getting ready, there are so many things you can do to really make it your own.
