Do bedside tables have to match?

I mean really? Do they?

I am not taking about random pieces of furniture due to lack of money, just what you end up with, but, more deliberately, but two nice tasteful piece of furniture that are not the same.

Are you an interior designer? If not just do what you want - your bedroom!

I am thinking say, we both go for something that will compliment each other, but not twins.

We will argue forever about what to get. And I hate matching everything. I think the theme or idea needs to be similar (ie not minimalistic cube alongside a morrocan ornate wooden piece).

But maybe some indian wood furniture, or perhaps moroccan feel. And they are all quite individual items.

I am certainly not barratt home

Bluejeans not by a long shot! But, we are spending a LOT of money converting our loft to become our bedroom, so I do want it to look good. Not just another room, but it will be the first room that will be designed from scratch how we want it, rather than just whatever we happen to own, replaced as and when.

So I would like to get it 'right' so to speak.

Southeastastra - not afraid of the police
