Choosing the right bedroom furniture can make all the difference in creating a space that is both functional and visually appealing. Honeypot Furniture offers a wide range of bedroom storage options, including wardrobes, chests of drawers, bedside tables and sideboards in finishes such as oak, black, grey and white.

This guide will help you make informed choices when selecting storage furniture for your bedroom, offering tips on style, layout and functionality.
How to Choose the Right Wardrobe
Wardrobes are often the central piece of bedroom storage, providing essential space for clothes, shoes and accessories. When choosing a wardrobe, it is important to consider both size and style. Honeypot’s wardrobes come in two-door and three-door designs, including options with mirrored fronts, making it easier to check your outfit while adding the illusion of space to the room.
Wardrobe Materials and Finishes
The finish of your wardrobe can set the tone for the entire bedroom. Oak wardrobes offer a warm, traditional feel, while grey or black designs can create a modern and minimalist aesthetic. Mirrored doors not only enhance functionality but also help brighten a room by reflecting natural light. Choosing a wardrobe that complements your existing furniture, such as matching a chest of drawers or bedside table, ensures a harmonious look.
Internal Layout
When assessing a wardrobe, consider how the interior is organised. Adjustable shelves, hanging rails and drawers can help you maximise storage space. A well-planned layout ensures that clothes are easy to access and prevents clutter from building up.
Tips for Selecting Chests of Drawers
Chests of drawers are practical, stylish and versatile. Honeypot’s chests of drawers provide storage for clothing, linens and personal items, while the top surface can be used to display decorative pieces, lamps or framed photos.
Matching Your Bedroom
A chest of drawers should complement your wardrobe and other furniture in terms of colour, material and design. Oak chests pair beautifully with oak wardrobes, creating a classic look, whereas grey or black drawers suit contemporary interiors. By choosing furniture with a consistent style, your bedroom will feel organised and balanced.
Size Considerations
The size of a chest of drawers should be proportionate to your room. Smaller chests work well in compact spaces, while larger units provide more storage without overcrowding the room. Consider the height of the drawers too; taller units may require a step to access the top drawers, whereas lower units offer easier reach.
Bedside Tables: Essential Convenience
Bedside tables are small but indispensable pieces of furniture. Honeypot’s bedside tables are designed to hold your night-time essentials, such as lamps, books and alarm clocks, keeping everything within easy reach.
Choosing the Right Bedside Table
When selecting bedside tables, consider the height of your bed to ensure easy access. Look for tables with drawers or shelves if you need extra storage, or opt for a simpler design if you prefer minimal clutter. Matching the table’s finish to your wardrobe or chest of drawers helps create a coordinated and stylish look.
Placement Tips
Place bedside tables on either side of the bed for symmetry, which enhances the room’s aesthetic. If space is limited, consider a single table or a floating design that can be mounted to the wall without occupying floor space.
Sideboards: Extra Storage and Surface Space
Sideboards are versatile storage units that can be used in bedrooms to hold clothing, linens, or decorative items. Honeypot’s sideboards are available in oak, black, grey and white, allowing you to match them with the rest of your furniture.
Benefits of a Sideboard
Sideboards provide additional surface space for decorative items, such as vases, framed photos or ornaments, while keeping smaller items out of sight. They are particularly useful in larger bedrooms, offering practical storage without compromising on style.
Styling Tips
Consider placing a mirror above a sideboard to create a focal point and reflect light around the room. Decorative trays or baskets can also be used on the top surface to keep everyday items organised and easy to access.

Space Planning
Measure your bedroom before ordering furniture to avoid overcrowding. Leave sufficient space around beds, drawers and wardrobes to ensure ease of movement. Consider circulation, access to windows and natural light, and how furniture placement affects the overall balance of the room.
