10 Easy Pieces: Bedside Wall Shelves with Lamps

We like the idea of a bedside shelf and the floor space it frees up in lieu of bedside tables. But then the question of lighting comes up. On one hand, a pint-sized cordless LED lamp might suffice, but real gains are made when a bedside shelf contains a reading lamp. Here are our 10 favorite wall shelves with lamps for a multi-pronged problem solver.
