Jo Alcorn shows us that changing the look of your bedroom can be as simple as changing your bedside tables!



We just love to see a gorgeous headboard and luxurious bedding! The neutral colour and classic feel of this set up suits so many different styles. For instance, if your taste is TRADITIONAL...These white side tables are ideal.
They have tons of storage and the pull out shelf for extra counter space always comes in handy!There are few things more luxurious than being served breakfast in bed!
A side table with a removable tray is the ultimate in double-duty furnishing. A steel and glass table such as this one is perfect for a modern space.
Adjust the height and you can swing it over to use as a tray in bed!

Regardless of the size of your home, many of us find storage to be an issue. Designer Jo Alcorn showed us some amazing "secret" storage pieces that would look great in any home!
This bright, stylish living room not only looks great, it's got a wonderful little secret...heaps and heaps of storage!
Our entire team fell in love with this sofa from Ikea. It's a pull-out bed and contains a TON of storage.
These adorable pillows contain cozy little blankets. Perfect for cuddling up on the sofa.
We love this coffee table from Structube... hidden media storage at your fingertips!
This brilliant little side table can house anything, from brightly coloured blocks for kids to TV remotes - fill it up with ice for a party and use the top as a nifty little tray!
These adorable Candy Pouffs from Calligaris are both stylish and functional and come in a variety of fun colour combinations!
We just LOVE these Transit Mailboxes by designer Steven Hugo-Seinader for Centrifuge! In a grouping of three they provide both artistic appeal and 'hidden' storage in any stylish space.
A sofa table or desk console is ideal such as this one provides drawer storage and room for baskets and boxes underneath.
And the After! 
Mirrors are the best things ever for a small space! They create the illusion that the room is bigger and help bounce off the light as well. You can't go wrong with adding mirrors. Fake it! By using mirrors in the right place, you can create the illusion there is a window or an adjoining room. We love the way 
We love this upholstered armchair with under-seat storage and side arm storage boxes - the best part is it's an environmentally friendly piece and you can't beat that!
This streamlined storage solution keeps your work area open and clutter-free. It also works as a petite console storage unit for those tight places. You can hide objects behind the door and display your nicer pieces on the shelves and on top. We'd love to see it used as a little bar storage area or as a small entryway table.
Perfect for a small office, this multifunctional cabinet has a file drawer with a sliding printer shelf and two storage drawers, keeping everything conveniently within reach and neatly stored.
This desk makes great use of corner space, which is key in tight rooms! Its surface makes a great desk with lots of extra counter space. We love the idea of rolling a small filing cabinet or baskets underneath for additional storage.
The Ikea NORDEN table is made of solid wood. It's perfect for a small space as the drop-leaf construction provides seating 2-4 people and can be adjusted according to need. Drawers are great for storing: cutlery, napkins, candles, etc.
