SIMPLE
BACK TO BASICS
You can’t get more
versatile than this: a
white coverlet, “wow”
shams, and a same-
color blanket. Need a
new look? Just change
the shams and blanket.
GO ROUND
A tiered table
borrowed from the
living room makes a
handsome nightstand.
Ideal bedside height is
24
to
30
inches, same
as most side tables.
NIGHT LIGHT
Try a small-scale
chandelier over the
bed, about where you
would hang a sconce.
Soften the bare bulbs
with clip-on shades,
just a few dollars each.
MAKE A CASE
To update your bed
on a budget, focus on
what shows. Keep your
sheets but buy new
cases with a color
border. They freshen
the look of any bed.
