bedroom design help

2 years ago

I’m laying in the bed trying to figure out what to do with this space. How would you arrange this? What would you get rid of? We need both dressers but not the tv stand. Should I put the tv in the wall and get a chair and table or something? Any idea to improve this space across from our bed? (Sorry it’s so messy I threw everyone the bed since I’m cleaning and dusting)

    Hi Tara, can you send a few more pics with some more angles? Do you have a large closet, also?


  • 2 years ago

    The closets are kind of on the side. It’s a small hallway of closets leader to our own bathroom.

    Any suggestions? Also I’d like to get a different furniture color? What wld look good with these dark floors? I want something lighter in color for furniture.

    The room is beginning to look like a furniture warehouse.

    Take out the TV stand and place the TV on the dresser closer to the bed.

    Place the high chest in the nook and place the mirror on top of that narrow chest if it fits.

    Add drapery panels to your windows.



    When they ask for more pics of the room, they don't want different angles of the same shot. They want photos of the complete room.......like where the bed, nightstands & closets are placed.

    Okay I’ll take some pictures when I get home. This is a very good idea as far as the image you presented in really like it. I just need to make sure that the dresser will fit without hanging off on the left side. Which I think it will. The dresser is about 62 inches wide. The tv stand is way shorter than the dresser.

    So what would be good to put where tall chest of drawers was? Maybe just a floor plant?

    I really like this. Thanks. Do you think I should get lighter colored furniture?

    I was also thinking of putting the tv on the wall.

    Also wondering if I should paint the room white. …

    Oh and where the chest of drawers is a blank wall. The window is next to the chest and in the other side of the chest is one long window. I’ll add some more pics shortly.

    Just because we eliminate an item from the room doesn't mean you have to replace it with another item. Sometimes a room just needs space.

    Do you have nightstands? Room for nightstands? I had my underwear in my nightstand, so I needed less room in the dresser. That allowed me to have a smaller dresser.


    I'd put the TV on the smaller dresser and put the taller one in the nook where the shorter one is. Or, I'd buy another dresser similar to the shorter one and put the TV on it.


    I would not put a table in your bedroom unless you know you will use it. An armchair is nice, but will it be used or just covered with clothing? And right in front of the door is an awkward space for it. Where the tall dresser is would be better.


    You could get a fancy wall paper for the wall behind the mirror.

    Do you like the furniture that you have - except the color? Then....maybe paint it lighter.

    Is the current bed location the best? Post pics.

  • 2 years ago

    Would be helpful if you drew a very simple plan of the room with measurements. Can you clarify, you said you wanted to keep both dressers but are thinking about getting new furniture. Are you starting from scratch here or working with what you have?

  • 2 years ago

    Update. The dresser is 12 inches too long. It will hang off of the wall on the left if that matters. The right side is where the door opens.

  • 2 years ago

    Update: pictures

  • 2 years ago

    @ Kendra’s for now I will keep what I have.

    @Shirlpp yes this is the best spot and I actually like the bed here bill post a pic. I thought about painting it but that is def a lot of work and not sure it’ll be what I actually like.

    @sigrid I was thinking a fancy wall paper behind the bed.

    Have you tried the tv on the dresser where the mirror is located currently. If that works, then just put artwork on the current tv wall.



  • 2 years ago

    No, I haven’t tried that. I do like the idea of the dresser being where the television is, but the dresser is too wide for that wall because the door is on the right side of the picture and it will not be able to open and close.

    I would want to remove the console below the TV and mount the TV on the wall (removes a piece of furniture without impacting clothes storage)

  • 2 years ago

    Yeah I’m thinking that may have to happen

  • 2 years ago

    Any other suggestions?

  • 2 years ago

    Can the swing on your door be reversed?

  • 2 years ago

    No it can’t reversed. I also made a slight change yesterday. I removed the mirror to the dresser and replaced it with a gold round mirror. Haven’t decided what I’m doing with the tv yet. I guess on the wall…

  • 2 years ago

    As I’m sitting here I think I’m going to remove the round mirror and mount the television there instead…. I’m torn…

    That's the pic I showed you above. It is worth a try, Tara.

    If the tv has a stand that is even better to determine if you like it.

  • 2 years ago

    Def worth a try.

  • 2 years ago

    How much do you use the TV? Is it going to be too far away?

  • 2 years ago

    I use it a couple times a week. No it’s not too far for me to see anything. It’s pretty big. If I were to keep it there I think I wld put it up in the wall. Actually no matter where I have it it’ll go up on the wall.

  • 2 years ago

    As long as you can see it well enough, that's a good option. You can decide if you would rather have the TV there or on the wall by the door. You could put art on the door wall. Would your bench fit there?

  • 2 years ago

    That’s a good idea. My bench would def fit there …

  • 2 years ago
    last modified: 2 years ago

    Do you really need a bench there? As soon as you walk into the room - you are currently hit with the tv and console.

    Moving the tv and just putting artwork on the wall, gives breathing space.


    For what it's worth - The round gold mirror looks good as well.

    Have you considered doing a custom closet in the niche where the dresser is? It would create one long wall of closet doors, hide clutter, and provide a lot of individual closet niches, rods and drawers.

  • 2 years ago

    Yes that’s true too.
