Posted by Eloy on Feb 3rd 2020

The dresser is one of those furniture pieces that wasn't necessarily designed and manufactured for a single specific function. The truth is that this piece can have several uses and can be a very useful and easily accessible resource for organizing various objects and managing the space that's available inside the home much better. Many people who have chosen a particular decorative style for their space choose a mid-century modern dresser to maintain the image and aesthetic coherence within the environment.

The vast majority of people use the dresser to store clothing, bedding, and personal belongings. However, each person can give their dresser the use they deem most relevant and appropriate, according to their particular needs. In this article, you'll discover some of the most usual ways in which users can take advantage of everything that their mid-century modern dresser can offer them.

Some Valid Ways to Use Your Dresser

* .- As a warehouse for your handmade objects. You are probably an artist, or someone fond of crafts, painting, and creativity. It's possible that at some point you thought that your art utensils and all the material resources you use for your creations no longer fit comfortably inside any container or briefcase, possibly because you already have too many or because no space in your house ends up being the appropriate one to have them saved. A mid-century modern dresser can be a very valid, authentic and original option for storing brushes, paints, folios and other materials that you use on a very recurring basis.

* .- Your dresser can be an excellent buffet. This, in fact, is another of the most typical uses that can be given to a mid-century modern dresser, especially when placed in a spot outside the bedroom, such as the dining room, living room or even in large enough kitchens. In homes where the kitchen is in constant motion and large volumes of kitchen utensils are handled without stopping, it's necessary to have a place to access them quickly and in an organized manner. A piece of this style can be a great answer to those kinds of needs.

The Tracy Wood Dresser is a good candidate to become that mid-century modern dresser that you can choose as a buffet. This mid-century modern dresser pays homage to past eras, presenting a mixture of elegance with a traditional touch. It's a model that requires assembly when purchased and is built with solid edges with artisan techniques. It's very aesthetic, formal and would be a perfect store for diverse instruments.

This furniture piece can become your perfect store of dining objects such as plates, platters, and bowls, as well as fine crockery and expensive cutlery. In addition, it can fulfill the function of becoming the repository of your serveware and dishes that you want to save for special occasions. You know... expensive dinnerware. If you choose your dresser well to store this type of utensils, you'll realize that it can be much more convenient than choosing a traditional mid-century modern dresser.

* .- The perfect media cabinet. Do you already have too many movies, video games, music and software discs and don't know where else to store them? The drawers of your mid-century modern dresser can work very well as a warehouse for your multimedia supplements and those collections that you treasure so much and that you no longer know where else to preserve. Even, many models are designed with a wide enough surface so that you can place a television on top, which will allow you to turn your dresser into a very interesting entertainment center. If you are looking for a piece of furniture for these purposes, make sure that your style matches the rest of the internal decoration.

* .- A large library at your fingertips. Books are wonderful objects, and more than instruments of learning and culture, for many they have become a great fetish. Having the books sorted on a shelf can look great and offer a very inspiring image, but the time may come quickly when you already have too many and don't know where to place the new volumes that are added to the collection. Having a mid-century modern dresser to store your books is a very valid alternative since you can store them in a very efficient way, especially if they are books that for any reason you'd prefer that are not visible to everyone.

The Double Dresser Line is a mid-century modern dresser that serves as an example for this type of use. This piece presents a touch of Scandinavian style that makes it robust and strong. Its greatest aesthetic feature is based on the wooden slats it shows on its front facade and each side.

If you haven't yet set up a space in your home to convert it into your reading room, library or personal study, imagine that you have a solid wood shelf full of printed volumes but you can no longer add one more to the list because you no longer have space and additional shelving seems very inconvenient. In that case, this could be the mid-century modern dresser that best accompanies your interior decoration.

One of the reasons why it could serve to store your books is because of the large space offered by its six drawers and its strong structure made of solid fir wood and walnut veneer. It's a piece of furniture designed to last a long time and resist multiple uses. Also, if your decorative environment contains many wooden elements, this piece can look great, as part of the overall layout.

The use you can give your mid-century modern dresser will depend largely on your pace of life and the type of objects you want to keep in it. This type of furniture is one of the most versatile that exists, due to the wide possibilities it offers. Many of them have a lot of storage space and there's such a wide variety of designs and styles on the market that finding the most appropriate for your layout is a very safe possibility.

It's possible that, even with all the possibilities described above, you don't want to give your mid-century modern dresser another use than the one for which its creators originally conceived and designed it: store clothes. If what you are looking for is to use your dresser simply for these purposes, some models come with additional resources that can be of great help and greatly expand the functionality of your furniture piece, for example, a mirror on the top.

A very valid example of this is the Madison Dresser and Mirror. This model is the favorite of those who prefer not only practicality but also elegance and good taste. It's a mid-century modern dresser that stands out for its high-class classy aesthetic, rescued from other times and adapted to modern trends.

If you've made sure that in your room every detail looks bright, and that each element is seen as an integral part of a chic design, which surprises the first impression for its fineness and good taste, this mid-century modern dresser may be the one to choose. It's also a piece of great quality, so attractive that it could easily become the focal point of the interior design of its compartment. Thanks to its large mirror, you can use it as your recurring site for makeup or combing. It's a model designed to use it together with the bedside table and the chest that are part of the same set. Besides, it's a model that doesn't require great maintenance, as it can be easily cleaned with a dry cloth.
