Top 5 Useful Tips To Organise Your Dressing Table

What is a dressing table first of all? Well a dressing table is a table or stand, usually a mirror is mounted above it and  in front of which a person usually a female sits while dressing, applying makeup, or brushing her hair. If you have only started looking for a dressing table  it’s always a good idea to find one that has lots of drawers, big or small, the more the merrier! 

Your dressing table might be the first thing you look at in the morning placed in the bedroom or even at the end of a hallway. No matter the location, if you want to dress to impress, your dressing table can’t be a mess. This is one of the best ways to organise a dresser as it allows you to fit a lot of things into small spaces and have them all organised at the same time. You can have your jewellery in one drawer, hair accessories in another and underwear in another separate drawer. It’s a win-win no matter how you look at it! Here are the Top 5 Useful Tips To Organise Your Dressing Table.

  1. If you’re serious about your dressing table, you’ll have at least one large mirror and a smaller zoom mirror for makeup detail work. If you want to get fancy, you can put another mirror on a mount so that you can swing it out. These mounts are a bit expensive but can help your organisational scheme by keeping one more thing out of the way when it’s not in use. As far as your largest mirror goes, it’s the centrepiece of your dressing table set. Make sure that there isn’t anything that blocks your frontal view of the mirror.

     

  2. Accessories are pretty-looking. There are plenty of ways to put them on display: use transparent boxes or simple trays to organise your jewellery, bracelets or head pieces. We all know that if you hide them inside the drawers, you just won’t wear them! One of the best dressing table organiser ideas is to add some flowers. They really liven up the mood in the room, look good with accessories and plus, they smell really nice.

     

  3. The first thing you should do is choose the things you use the most and put them within hand’s reach. Think about your everyday routine and the stuff you need first thing in the morning and put them on display. Whether it’s a bottle of your favourite perfume or a box filled with cosmetics. After all, it’s your room!

     

  4. Small tables are also great as they allow you to experiment with style and design. If you don’t have a lot of space, use the wall! For example, you can put a big mirror in front of your dresser and have more space on the table for your things. Also think about using a modern lamp with a thin design and a separate shelf for books.

     

  5. Lighting is one of the first things you need to think about. If your dressing table is dark, you’ll need to introduce some proper light. You can’t be expected to do your makeup with precision if you can’t see. Use candles for a more cozy and romantic feel or modern lamps to create a contrast with your table’s design. And don’t forget you can use chandeliers and floor lamps! The best lighting will combine natural lighting with a series of small lights which surround your biggest mirror. Make sure that the switch for your lights is easy to reach and that the cable is nestled behind the table itself, so you don’t trip over it. 

Now that your dressing table is well-organised, your morning and evening routines will be more efficient. You may even have a few extra minutes in the morning to eat breakfast if you’ve done a fantastic organisational job.For your dressing table to remain organised, you’ll need to keep putting stuff back in the places you designated for them to go. 

Don’t be surprised if you need to reorganise your dressing table once in a while…
