10. Floating Nightstand Conversion
If your bedside floor is cluttered, the most transformative makeover is to take the legs off entirely and turn your nightstand into a floating unit.
How to Make
Remove the existing legs from your nightstand and fill the holes with wood filler, sanding until smooth. Paint the exterior to match your wall color—this helps it “disappear” into the wall. Mount the nightstand to the wall using heavy-duty L-brackets or a French cleat system, positioning it at the perfect height for your bed. It immediately makes the room feel larger, more modern, and easier to clean.
Things Needed
- Heavy-duty L-brackets or French cleat
- Wood filler and sandpaper
- Wall paint (to match the unit)
- Drill and level
- Stud finder
