5 Tips for Decorating a Dresser Top

“A key factor in creating a peaceful master bedroom is decorating your dresser. Even if the drawers are full of neatly folded clothes, it seems like dresser tops are too often cascading with clutter or completely bare.

Our first instinct may be to cover flat surfaces with items that are pretty or special to us, but beauty must be balanced by function. The first time you discover how romantic your bedroom becomes when softly lit by lamps (instead of glaring overhead light), you’ll be a believer. Bonus: These ideas can also be used to style an entryway table, console table, or even a mantel!

Tips

Center a framed piece of artwork or a mirror at eye-level above your dresser.

Flank either end of your dresser with a pair of matching lamps.

Provide attractive storage, such as decorative boxes, trays, or bowls, to hold jewelry or odds and ends.

Layer in interesting objects—such as a clock, candle holder, or collectible.

Finish with something beautiful. You can’t go wrong with fresh or silk flowers!

Bedroom Cleaning Check List

“

Bed sheets

Clean: Once a week According to a recent YouGov poll, one in ten of us wash our sheets only every four weeks, and more than a third wait 14 days. Laura recommends washing them once a week at a minimum of 60 degrees to destroy bacteria. ‘Dry sheets and pillowcases in direct sunlight if you can, as UV light is effective in killing micro-organisms. Run a hot iron over pillowcases on the cotton setting (200 degrees) to kill any leftover bacteria.’

Pillows

Clean: Every three months This is where it gets really disgusting. According to Mail Online, doctors have found that up to a third of a pillow’s weight can be made up of bugs, dead skin, mites and their faeces, and the average unwashed pillow can contain a revolting 16 species of fungi. Luckily, washing at 60 degrees hould kill most bacteria so chuck them in the washing machine once every three months.

Football Season Has Arrived!

“

Football season has arrived, let the games begin! For the next four months my home will be inundated with sights and sounds of football whistles, crashing helmets, and of course football paraphernalia.

As a coach’s wife, I’m convinced that I receive more than my fair share. From jerseys to trophies and plaques there is hardly any room to display it all without someone mistaking our home for a sports hall of fame.

Resisting the temptation to store everything in a cardboard box, I’ve had to find creative ways to show my support. Many of you Houzz readers have found solutions to this decorating dilemma and provided some great ways to support the home team. There’s nothing like teamwork!

If you have the luxury of space, create a comfortable den to stretch out and watch the game. Decorate surrounding walls and shelves with collectibles from your family’s favorite teams.

Is there an older gamer in your midst? Use antique trophies as flower vases. How’s that for a balance of masculine and feminine?

No matter the sport, little helmets add big style. Integrate your child’s sporting equipment into his room’s decor and maybe less of it will end up on the floor. You know the saying, “”If you can’t beat them, join them.””

Have your treasured sports collectibles framed and hung gallery-style. The archived pieces make a proud display and are preserved for many generations to come.

For a less expensive option, frame a jersey yourself using a frame from a mass retailer. This gives you the flexibility to switch from football to basketball immediately after the Super Bowl.

Show support for your budding athlete in a big way. Paint a wall with chalkboard paint (it now comes in colors!) and help them to map out their winning strategy.

Tiny tokens of appreciation are the easiest to blend into your decor. This silver helmet is a lovely accent among a pair of floating shelves. Need a change? Use this statuette as a paperweight or a bookend.

This may be the best example of compromise I’ve ever seen. A formal room instantly becomes a overflow space to watch the big game. Unsuspecting guests receive a pleasant surprise when a full-sized television lowers from the ceiling and retracts when the party is over.
