A lamp, a decorative white stick tree thing (we used it as a memory tree at our wedding 6 years ago), phone charger, a book, AirPod pros, lip balm, pack of tissues, medication and a glass of water.

DH's side has a matching lamp, a couple of watches, his wedding ring and his AirPod pros. He's also got a can of Pepsi Max there right now as he's not been well so he's been chilling in the bedroom for most of the day.

Assume you're American as you called it a nightstand, it's a bedside table in UK.
On mine is a lamp, alarm clock, hand cream, nail cream, lip balm, 6 books, David Austin rose brochure, hot brush.

So many responses on here giving me palpitations. Too much stuff.

On the left side table is a lamp, a lumie clock, a coaster, the dog's water bowl.

On the right side table is a lamp, a coaster, a sansevieria plant.

I can't stand to have things on surfaces in the bedroom.

Oh you'd love mine then. Both tables each side only have a lamp on them. Unless it's bedtime then it just has baby monitor on😁

Cpap machine
Book

A nightstand? Where do you live - Downton Abbey?

😂 I must be common, because we just call it a side table!

Some people must have huge units next to their beds, with the amount they're fitting on them!

Lamp, coaster, ipad, headphones, that's it. I have all my crap in the draws underneath though!
