Inspiration: Bedside Tables + Lung Leavin' Day

My bedside table is a plain wooden table that has a small pile of books, an small alarm clock, a small Bath and Body Works candle, a pill-shaped light, two pens, two lip balms, some notes, and a hard glasses case to keep my glasses in overnight. It's not the worst-looking table ever, but I was thinking of sprucing it up a little, so I turned to Pinterest for inspiration. 

I think some flowers, even if they're fake, would add some color, and moving my little macaron trinket box to my bedside table would up the cute factor. What's on your bedside table? Do you use anything unique as a bedside table?

P.S. -- I'm giving away $15 to Starbucks over on The Modern Austen's blog!

Today I want to introduce you all to Lung Leavin' Day
This isn't a sponsored post, but I felt that this was something you all should know about 
and something you could participate in if you wanted to. 
Lung Leavin' Day 2014
Eight years ago, Heather Von St. James was diagnosed with mesothelioma; a rare cancer that kills most people within 2 years of diagnosis. She had just given birth to her daughter Lily, and was only given 15 months to live. After a life saving surgery that included the removal of her left lung, LungLeavin’ Day was born. On February 2nd, Heather celebrated 8 years of being cancer free.
The purpose of LungLeavin’ Day is to encourage others to face their fears! Each year, Heather, her husband, and her daughter gather around a fire in their backyard with their friends and family, write their biggest fears on a plate and smash them into the fire. They celebrate for those who are no longer with them, for those who continue to fight, for those who are currently going through a tough time in their life, and most importantly, they celebrate life! 
You can participate by "smashing" your fears into a virtual fire and spreading the word about Lung Leavin' Day! Learn more about Heather Von St. James and learn more about Mesothelioma
