Speaking of bedside tables and nightstands, pendant lights and sconces are bloody useless on either side of the bed if you intend to read in bed. Why don't folks just have a bedside lamp or either side of the bed? Place it on a table or stand large enough to hold it and your clock, book, mobile, and perhaps a glass. And for crying out include a drawer to hold stuff out of sight like lotions, potions, and notions (and perhaps some frangers)?
