Do these nightstands work together?

I have this bed from Thomasville and the line is discontinued. Unfortunately I did not get any nightstands with the bed and have been looking for them for the past couple years. I may be able to get one from someone in another state after a long search, but that still leaves me missing one. I am interested in another nightstand offered by Thomasville now but can't tell if it will "go" with the bed and/or other nightstand. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Here is the nightstand that from the same line as the bed I own.

Here is the nightstand currently in stores. Would this work as a pair? Does the style look okay with the bed?

I love Arhaus and would shop with them, but they don’t do in store pick up and the shipping to my area is just not worth it. Got ready to purchase a bed and the cost to get it to me was $300. I’m going to need 3 stools and most everything comes in pairs or outside that practical cost zone for me. May end up with an additional stool. I’m telling you it is a real struggle to get anything besides the same ole boring and tradition decor and furnishings in that area. I agree with you about the chairs, but they are really good quality and finding something to replace them around here or without paying shipping cost is my same old song and dance. Fabric and an upholster I can get. Plus if I don’t use the stuff, there’s that “What am I going to do with it”? Nobody will pay me anything for it, and I already have a storage building with stuffed full, so I might as well use it. I’m getting to old for this, but I will get it done sooner or most likely later. I’ll send you a photo when it’s hung. And that will take weeks. Have a good evening. Thanks!

A quick, easy change would be the bar stools. Try flipping the buffet with the piece in the foyer and let's see how that looks. If I were you, I'd eliminate the tables, lamps and art flanking the door. You should consider using that wall space for drapery stack back like in the dining room. It appears the door is in the center so you shouldn't have a problem doing that. Try stacking the two pieces of art vertically on the bit of wall between the dining and living spaces with one hand's breadth between them and that space at 5' above the floor. Stacked art that hangs close to the floor can be striking!

I need help redecorating guest bedroom - do these items work together?
Q

I like a small desk or table in a guest bedroom. Many people will bring a laptop and will want to have a surface to work on, and it is not advised to work on the bed or your lap, it gets lots of lint and dust in there. That's why college students fry their laptops on a regular basis, they work on their beds and laps and on the floor, and lots of dust and lint get in them and they don't vacuum them regularly or replace the heat paste either. I would keep clutter to a minimum in a guest room and one of the ways to do that is to not have a bedside lamp. You can have wall-mounted sconces that are plug-in so you don't have to use an electrician.

Well, that settles that. I’m going with pots only in the kitchen, keeping all sight lines open to the large wagon wheel fixture in the sitting area.

Matchy matchy is not the trend right now. Many people use two different night stands. Personally I would rather have two of the newer style. If you like them both why not go for it?

Can you purchase one of the newer version with a return option if you don't like it? Sometimes, I think you have to see a piece in the room with the other furnishings to be certain if it works or not.

Personally, I don't mind if nighstands don't match, but they have to feel right together.

Ours don't match because DH had one he wanted to keep when we got a new bed. They didn't match before that either (I was using a small bookcase for a while). In our room, you seldom can see both at the same time anyway, so it doesn't bother me. I do like them being the same height (the bookcase was taller) and having some similar details.

I really like the old style, personally, but it just can't be found. I am not even sure if the one I did find is a guarantee. The local Thomasville store does have one of the new styles in stock and it is actually a floor model on clearance so it is a good price, but it is final sale (there's only one there). Unless they are willing to make an exception I don't think I can take it home and return if it doesn't work. I can't quite tell if the wood is a match either. It looks very close but it might be slightly lighter in color than my bed. I stopped in quickly at the store last night but didn't have much time. I will have to go back and look again. I just wasn't sure if the style worked well with the bed.

I would prefer a closed back (chest style) as opposed to open because there are outlets and cords in sight behind the nightstand from the lamps and clocks (as is the case with what I'm currently using for nightstands). But I'm trying to keep my options open because I am really wanting to finish the room.

I think the night stands are fine together, but that second one is very poorly proportioned.....it looks like a drawer set on top of a stand meant for something else.

I don't like the second one and I don't think they go together. The second one is odd, with the feet on an angle. Just my opinion. Find something that you love.

For the side where you can't get a matching nightstand, could you go in a totally different direction - like a skirted table? You can have a skirted table in any style from very tailored to very frou frou. Search "skirted table" on Pinterest for some ideas.

Take a look on Ebay, there are lots of sets of Thomasville nightstands. The link is below

I agree I am not a fan of the open back one, I am not sure it will match your color either.
If you aren't in love with it then keep looking.
I used the skirted tables for a while in the guest room, it looked fine.
I want storage in my bedside tables.
