Wall-Mount Bedside Shelf

When organizing your bedroom, a great place to start is the bedside table. If yours is a jumble of books, medicine bottles, and empty water glasses, take steps to ensure a more calming before-bed spot. Start by storing just the bare necessities--an alarm clock, light, and single book or magazine. Another lesson from this savvy setup: Get that nightstand off the floor. Mount a shelf on the wall, as shown here, or integrate it into your headboard. You'll give yourself an out-of-the-way spot for storage baskets that hold books and magazines.
