Bedroom Dressing Tables

Beautiful bedroom dressing tables

When you're in a rush to go out the door, having your makeup and jewellery in one location is super helpful. That is why a bedroom dressing table is ideal for quickly getting ready in the morning. Besides its practicality, a compact dressing table in your bedroom is also a stylish accessory that adds a touch of classic glamour.

This lovely piece of furniture is both versatile and trendy. It has the potential to be the statement piece you've been looking for. We have a large collection of vanity units in various shapes and styles at vidaXL, so we invite you to have a look at our selection to find the ideal makeup table for you.

What is the best material for a bedroom dressing table?

The material used to make a piece of furniture is very important to consider. Aside from durability and appearance, the material determines the style of the bedroom dressing table and the overall décor feel.

1. Solid wood vanity units

Solid wood furniture, especially when it comes to a classic dressing table desk, is a timeless addition to any home. A mango wood vanity table can be the perfect choice if you love a blend of unique grains and a raw-looking finish. Oak and pine are also excellent choices for sturdy and long-lasting vanity units that bring a rustic touch to your home.

2. Dressing tables made of MDF

MDF stands for medium-density fibreboard and is a type of engineered wood. Due to its numerous fantastic features, this affordable yet sleek option makes a great modern dressing table. MDF is an extremely durable material that will last for years without requiring any maintenance. Because the MDF texture allows the furniture to be painted as desired, you have a wide range of colours to choose from when purchasing an MDF bedroom dressing table. Moreover, MDF dressing tables are more lightweight and less expensive than wooden ones.

Which dressing table model should you choose? 

The design of a bedroom dressing table grants its versatility; the different shapes allow you to select one that best suits your needs. A dressing table can look lovely and be just as useful in a bathroom or even a hallway, however, it's more common to have it in the bedroom. 

A makeup table with a mirror

As the name suggests, this vanity table is specifically created for your makeup needs. The large mirror attached to the vanity table offers the optimum conditions for applying makeup. Some of these pieces include built-in LED bulbs, allowing you to have professional makeup illumination in your room. Furthermore, a makeup table provides ample storage space for your cosmetics in order to keep everything you need close at hand.

A modern dressing table

A compact dressing table is an excellent option if you need a larger piece that can be used in multiple areas of your home to help you get ready for the day. This is a larger table with plenty of storage in the form of shelves and drawers. Normally, a dressing table does not include a mirror, but we do have some with mirrors in our collection. Its design makes it appropriate for hallways, dressing rooms, or bathrooms.

The corner dressing table

This dressing table is designed to fit into a tight corner while still providing a lot of storage in a small space. A large locker facing sideways for easy access and an open shelf under the table help you keep everything in its place. Moreover, a 3-panel mirror (with LED bulbs) can also be added to a corner dressing table to create a 3-sided perspective for makeup application. For more practicality, lower shelves for cosmetics and ornamental items are sometimes attached to the two side panels.

What is a good size for a makeup table?

Whatever style you choose for your beauty station, make sure the counter can be reached easily from a sitting position. The normal height of a bedroom dressing table is roughly 75 cm, while sit-down vanities with a height of 69–75 cm are also available.

Depending on how much table top space you need for your cosmetics, the table's width and length vary.

When picking a dressing table with a mirror, make sure there are at least a few centimetres on both sides of the vanity top to keep the mirror balanced and robust. Take the time to measure your vanity before buying a mirror (if you're buying one separately). The recommended distance between the mirror's edge and the vanity's edge is five to ten centimetres. 

How to choose the right style for your bedroom dressing table

A vanity dressing table is a lovely piece of furniture that also serves as a fantastic decorative item. Our dressing tables come in a variety of designs and styles to suit any taste. We have everything from baroque to modern designs so that you can choose the appropriate vanity unit for your home décor.

• The contemporary dressing tables

If you have a contemporary taste in interior design, our selection of dressing tables is sure to please. A white MDF dressing table with wooden legs is one great option. The sleek design works well in a modern bedroom, and you can choose from a variety of neutral colours, including white, black, and grey. You can also choose between different coatings, such as a glossy or matte finish. 

• Vintage vanity units

The vintage look of a bedroom dressing table inspires beauty and elegance in a way that is absolutely unique. If you've always wanted a beautiful centrepiece for your bedroom, consider one made of solid wood with a baroque design. The oval-shaped mirror on the majority of these vintage vanity cabinets has a wonderfully adorned frame.

• Bohemian makeup tables

For a bohemian touch to your bedroom, a vanity dressing table made of reclaimed wood with unique grains will serve the purpose. These vanity units blend varied shades and textures because the wood comes from different furniture pieces or even old building sites. This particular feature makes them ideal for a boho-chic interior design, showing your interest in both organic shapes and environmentally friendly décor.

How to style a bedroom dressing table

• If you've decided on a makeup table with open shelves, you can decorate them with various items, such as memorabilia or framed photos, for a touch of individuality.

• A lovely table lamp and some string lights on the mirror will make your setting look beautiful, as a useful but also cosy accent.

• When it comes to adorning tables, fresh flowers or potted plants go a long way.

• Place your vanity unit against a gallery wall for a more inspiring design; this way, you can hang your favourite fashion prints or mood photos.

• Finally, for a balanced yet creative setting, the stool of your choice should match the size and style of the makeup table.
