Streamline your the items on your nightstand and add a splash of color.

What was once an unfinished wood dresser now has sleek style.

A reflection from this mirrored lamp adds light and sparkle to this bedroom.

Another great idea from Michelle: turn a simple wood dresser into a glam nightstand. Find detailed instructions on the project here. See more of Michelle's DIY skills in her Houzz Tour.

Alarm clocks. For many of us, they play an important role each day, but my goodness, can they be unsightly! Styling night table decor is a great idea, and this little vignette means business. It'll wake you up, quench your thirst and keep things bright for reading at night — all while looking chic.

If your base color is gray and you don't want to make a big commitment to an accent color, bring yellow in through small accessories, like this tray. Side note: A trayscape is a good way to corral items on a surface and keep things looking streamlined.

4. Give them know the time of day (or night). Hosts often overlook the need for an alarm clock for guests because they haven't slept in the room themselves. Another item in this room that's a nice touch is a bottle of water. If you want to be super-hostess, leave them the latest copy of People mag so that they can keep up with the Kardashinanigans.

A guest room tray with current magazines, local maps, a book or two, a holiday snack and other comfort amenities is a wonderful way to say "Welcome to my holiday home" after a guest's hectic trip.

Proof that bright color sometimes works best in small packages: an eye-catching tray that corrals night-table necessities.

Trays keep everything contained. This particular tray gives the entire look a new personality with its cheery yellow.

3. Unify the space with a single color palette. If you can see from one end of your flat to the other without getting up, an overall color palette will help pull everything together and make the space feel more expansive. Pairing one main color with an accent hue and filling in with neutrals is an easy way to start. To add interest, try using the accent color as the main color in a smaller space. For example, use navy as the main color with sunny yellow accents in the living room, but go for a bold yellow wallpaper in the bathroom.
