New work in progress nightstands and dresser in the bedroom

What I like most about the Heritage bedroom is while all required pieces are accounted for -- fancy bed, nightstands and vanity -- nothing matches exactly. I don't mind a bedroom suite, but I rather like the idea that grandma has chosen pieces simply because they spoke to her not because they made up a matched set.
To that end, grandma still needed a dresser. I picked up a furniture and accessories lot from craigslist some time ago, and in it was a Houseworks bow front dresser kit.
I made no changes to the base kit, though I did add a mirror made of frame strip wood. To fancy up the mirror, I added laser cut embellishments from Heritage Laser Works. They have such great things!
I made sure the dresser wouldn't be too tall for the corner with the added mirror. I plan to angle the dresser so I can see more of it when looking into the room from the open back.
Here I've used The Chair from the parlor as a stand in for the one I plan to make. I think everything will fit well in the room without seeming crowded.
