How can I repurpose these bedside tables?
We recently repainted our daughters bedroom a medium blue with a white wainscots on the lower 1/2 of the room. I had wanted to paint the ceiling the same color blue and then paint clouds all around but later changed my mind... anyways, for the most part her room is blue and white (photos enclosed).To give you an idea of what I am working with... her curtains are off white with grey, khaki and coral colors, her bed frame is an antique white-ish. I have a white ladder shelf at the foot of the bed and her tv mounted above it to appear as though its sitting on the shelf.. i had bought white nightstand for a bedside table but she decided she would rather have two of my other tables that are "yin & yangish".. they were once black and my husband painted them white and then they got nasty stains on them due to drinks being spilled etc.. so they need to be repainted.. I just dont know what color to do... PLEASE HELP

Maybe paint them gray, the color of her pillows??
Are the patterned curtains staying? You could pull a color out of them. Red would be lively and the other color more subdued.
the pillows and bedspread are a light almost sky blue.. idk about the curtains.. as of now they are staying.. the corner table is coming out and there is a chair in the corner that is also temporary.
color in the curtain is coral..
I like the gray idea.
I think it should be the same color as the stand the tv is on.
Paint them the same blue as the walls. They will stand out in front of the white wainscoting
If the curtains aer staying, I would suggest a high gloss coral for the end tables. The hi-gloss paint would be more washable.
I think they would be nice painted the coral or another color in your curtains to bring it all together and to give it a pop of color
I agree with Cheryl, the coral would be a great pop of happy color! especially if your duaghter loves coral.
What about 2 toned? Gray legs with coral tops on that nightstand. Find a coral color that is not too bright but more like what is in your curtains.
I think matching the coral in the curtains would be great. It would be easier to keep clean than white.
Too much white. She needs color. I like the coral idea. Paint the inset panels in the headboard and footboard coral also.
I would paint them the coral color in the curtains. The room needs some color. Use Rustoleum spray paint, let dry completely between coats and no top coat will be necessary. I would also add Coral pillow cases.
If coral is too bold a choice, keep it in the blue family and go with a deep navy blue in a high gloss for protection. As the pieces were previously black, it should only take one coat of a good quality paint/primer.
I agree to add color! Especially for a girls room to feel happy
i would for sure add color like above suggests to bring some interest to their shaape
