if you caught my instagram stories {now a highlight under ‘max room’} and posts these past couple weeks, you might have noticed a theme. for both practical {she doesn’t need a “nursery” anymore. insert wow and crying emojis here} and aesthetic {read: i’m bored} reasons, i’ve been spending a lot of time revamping max’s room.
the layout is now perfect for her to play and grow and really opens up this small room which is only 9 x 11’. there’s just one thing that’s not quite working…her existing dresser {i added these knobs}. i love the dresser itself and it’s served us well, fitting all of max’s clothes as she’s grown. but in order to make this layout work, the dresser needs to go between the closet and main door. and as you can see above, it’s just too wide and the door won’t fully open. for now it’s fine but it looks a new dresser is on the horizon.
i’ve rounded up a few that i think would work well in the space. whatever we get needs to be spacious given it’s max’s primary storage {right now the closet in the room is a combo catchall for max, bill, and storage} so it needs to be a taller chest of drawers vs wider dresser, but not too tall that it overwhelms the small room and its low ceilings.
one / might be a little too modern but i like the overall look.
two / a pretty classic style that will look good with different design schemes.
three {in natural maple} / can’t decide if the base is too bulky but love the matching handles.
four / also like the matching handles here and the base is similar to what we have now.
five / the color is what gets me here.
six / this is an unfinished style so i’d probably just seal it and keep the color as is.
seven / this is a whopper of an investment from kalon studios but it’s handmade and perfect.
eight / i’m so so on the base but like the general design.
keep in mind that for the styles that have knobs, i would replace with something more decorative. lots to think about…
