We just redid our whole bedroom. I have new furniture and my dresser is bare. I have no idea how to decorate it.
I am really trying to curb my clutter. On my old dresser I had a ton of pictures in frames and knick-knacks people had given us over the years. I put most of that away because, well, it was ugly. Pictures are now on the walls.
So, what is on your dresser? Point me to a blog that will tell me how to decorate.
I have a glass tray that holds my every day perfume and my ring holder. We have a small wooden box that hold H's watch. I also have a jewelry tree from Target that holds some of my prettier earrings. Otherwise it's clear.
Our dresser also has two smaller drawers on top and a big oval mirror attached so not a ton of space. I have my grandmother's milk glass and a couple picture frames on there.
Everything on there is functional. I hate random "stuff".
-jewelry box -necklace stand/rack -crystal dish for anything I tend to wear really often, like my watches, favorite necklace, earrings, etc. -pile of maternity tops that I don't want to get lost in the closet -bottle of my favorite perfume -lamp
I don't have a dresser. My chest of drawers has a TV and an Xbox on it, and my lingerie chest has one of our phone handsets, a small flower pot filled with little organza bags filled with bracelets (and a stuffed owl), this weird bag thing that holds a miscellaneous assortment of Shout, scissors, and a flashlight, a bottle of perfume, and a small jewelry box (with another smaller jewelry box stacked on top). It's more about function than looking cute.
Two pictures in frames-one of each of my kids, a blank frame that i liked but never put a picture in, and at the moment laundry that needs to be put away

I have a jewelry box, a Scensty warmer, a framed photo of DH and I, and a lamp. We have a long, low dresser. I also have a mirror hanging over one side (above the jewelry box).
Oh, you mean besides the pile of clothes that DH seems to toss onto it daily? I have a small jewelry box and that's it. I do have framed art hung above the dresser though, so it doesn't look all empty on that wall.
