Looking for help with finding bedroom sconces and an armoire

6 years ago

Hello, I am looking for suggestions for a pair of wall sconces/ reading lamps to go on either side of a headboard in our primary bedroom, as well as a narrow armoire or other vertical storage unit to be placed in the far corner of the room. I posted a few days ago and was advised (wisely!) that I needed to choose the other elements in the room first, including colors and textures, to help guide the lighting decision. The room is being repainted and the lights will be hardwired so I am trying to pull all the pieces together- after a too long delay!

I plan to paint the room “Silken Blue” from Benjamin Moore (color swatch is on the pillow sham in second photo) for the wall color and I found a rug that I Iove from West Elm-

which has blue/ gray and cream tones and a bit of shimmer/ elegance- sample square is next to the sham. I plan to keep the gray/silver bedding, keeping it simple, and will add more blue tones with a blanket and pillow accents.

The only other light in the room is a white modern ceiling fan. The room has a southern exposure so gets good daytime light. One design dilemma to note is that there is only 12.75 inches between the headboard and the wall on each side. The only furniture in the room is a king size bed and a mid century walnut dresser. I had a matching highboy type dresses in the room but it seemed to take up too much space- and didn’t look right lined up on the same wall as the dresser. The room is 14”x11.5”. There is 47” of space between the footboard and wall, therefore any type of amoire/ storage unit would need to be pretty narrow.

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions for sconces/ reading lamps or an armoire/ vertical storage to help pull the room together. Thank you!
