Nightstands:
Few things are worse than staying overnight with your loved one in a space with just one nightstand. Make things easier by adding a transitional Gabby nightstand on either side of your guest bed. Not only will it elevate the style of your room, but also make things a little easier for your guests. The Hazel chest features a dark cerused oak finish with lucite handles and ample storage, perfect for a guest bedroom. Top the nightstand with unique lamps and accessories to allow functionality and design.

Extras:
Everyone knows the feeling of traveling to an overnight destination and realizing you forgot that one necessity. Soothe those worries by providing a basket with a few extras. Keep a couple tooth brushes, phone chargers, and razors on hand to help your guests feel more at home.
Pillows:
Help your guests feel at home with a mix of sleeping pillows. Since preferences for sleeping pillows vary for each person, its important to have a few options to meet a variety of sleeping styles. As well, a sprinkle of decorative pillows is any easy way to make a guest room feel more like home. Our Wendy Jane pillows add a sprinkle of color, transitional style, and pattern to a neutral pallet. Wendy Jane pillows are made with a soft yet durable fabric intended to withstand the changing seasons and tides of people walking through your doors.
