* Work out where you want to put your dressing table and take measurements of the space. Make sure the dressing table won't interfere with the rest of the room, such as the 'walking' space around the bed or wardrobe doors.

* If you're planning to place it in an alcove, take into consideration skirting boards and radiator pipes.

* Consider the best position for the dressing table in terms of lighting. Placing it in or near a window will be the ideal spot for applying makeup, or if you need a lamp, make sure there's a socket nearby.
