How to Decorate a Bedroom With Chairs and a Small Table

Decorate a bedroom with chairs and a small table to add more function to the space. Offer visitors a spot to sit in your guest room where they can enjoy a meal, snack or after-dinner beverage in peace. Or create an area in your master bedroom for an office or hobby space or romantic meals for two. Whatever your intentions are in bringing this seating area into the room, do it with your own personal flair for style and design.

Instructions

    • 1

      Place the chairs and small table in an area that makes sense for the space that you have. For example, place them in the area at the end of the bed instead of a conventional storage trunk or ottoman. Use a round table and chairs with rounded backs so there are no sharp corners to bump against.

      Cover the table with a cloth for additional hidden storage. Place baskets, boxes or other storage containers underneath to store craft supplies, books or napkins. Leave the table exposed if it matches your interior design style and you do not need the area underneath for storage.

    • 3

      Add cushions or pillows to the chairs that coordinate with the tablecloth for extra comfort. Drape throws over the arms of chairs in a complementary material. Create a comfortable area to sit with a good book and a glass of wine in the evening.

      Place a rug underneath the table and chairs to define the seating space, especially in a large bedroom that contains other functional areas. For example, choose a plush rug for tired feet to rest on at the end of a long day or add an antique rug for a decorative effect. Other options include a braided rug for a country feel or a faux bear skin rug if the table is in front of a fireplace.

      Decorate the wall behind a small table and chairs to further separate the area from the rest of the room. For example, hang pictures from the ceiling to the floor. Ensure the space between all of the paintings is equal. Place a picture in the center of the space and then work outward.

      Bring additional lighting to the area if needed. For example, hang a small chandelier above the table for a romantic setting or add a few pendant lights for a modern dining experience in your own bedroom. Other options include an adjustable reading light in a work or craft space or a decorative antique table lamp that adds character as well as task lighting.

      Place accessories on the small tabletop that add function as well as visual interest. For example, a stack of your favorite novels underneath a lamp offers texture as well as ease of access. Other options include candlesticks and decorative matchboxes or a gift basket filled with wine or fruit for your guests.
