- Consider how you will use a custom-made dressing table to
ensure it meets your needs without overwhelming the space.
- A neutral-colored chair, different from the dressing table, will
provide contrast and prevent the whites from clashing.
- Peel-and-stick wallpaper can create a focal point on a narrow
wall without overwhelming the space or requiring additional
decor.
