This article introduces the Bedside Table Archives, a curatorial project and archive intervention that explores the domestic culture of lesbian and queer women at a particular moment in time. Inspired by the sociology of Ben Highmore and the methodological approach of Rachel Hurdley, this project borrows from arts-based research practice, oral history, and archival theory to create a collection of records relating to women's queer homemaking practices in the intimate realm of the bedroom. 1
