Where do you do your grooming? Do you balance your make-up bag on the edge of the basin or maybe sit at the kitchen table? In the heyday of Hollywood glamour women dreamed of emulating the stars.
Why don’t we reinstate this period feature? It is pretty easy to source a genuine art deco dressing table.
This drum dresser is quite similar to the upholstered one in my first image. Then, all you have to do is accessorise with a pair of lamps and a dressing table set.
Pretty in silver and pink.
Or striking in green.
Or maybe blue is your colour – there is literally something for every taste and pocket. Sets on a tray are easy to get hold of, especially if you are in the country and passing an antiques centre. I picked up a gorgeous one, (a little like the one below) with a plethora of brushes, combs mirror and pots on a pretty little tray for under £20.
And if there are any men still reading – you’re not wasting your time, this would make an unusual Valentine’s or mother’s day present – she couldn’t say you haven’t been thoughtful!
