The best bedside tables to transform your sleeping quarters
For such a small piece of furniture, the humble bedside table really puts in the work. While some are used as platforms to place items you need within easy reach, such as your favourite book, magazine, or that all-important glass of water, others can store trinkets or provide a place to display your favourite table lamp.
