Hi! A few people asked to see a bit more of my room, I'm not very good at taking photos so these pics will have to do I'm afraid! I knew in my head I wanted a very minimal, white bedroom but I have to say most of the credit must go to my Mum...she's way more creative than me and has a real eye for interiors. Like I would never have thought of having white floors or that statement wallpaper! I really wanted hints of grey and pink to break it up a bit but what's good about having everything all white is I can easily change the colour scheme with a few new cushions or something if ever I get bored of it in the future.
My dressing table was this old pine thing that we had for years, all it took was a bit of paint and some new handles (we found these marble ones in TK Maxx) to breathe a bit of new life into it. We put the mirror on the wall instead of having one on the actual table to save space and although I planned to keep it a lot more minimal it's a little cluttered with knick knacks...a few were gifts and others were bought by me, I can't stop getting random little things! I usually have flowers but at the moment I don't so it's feeling a little bare right now. I keep my make up here but I don't actually do it at the table, I prefer sitting on the floor and using my wardrobe mirrors.
Here is just a little corner of my room, I want to paint the stool white. I should be too old for teddies but I just love em! These four are all special to me, they have nice memories so I don't like the thought of them sitting in a box somewhere. The Vogue print was a gift from my brother when he went to Paris and the bin is from Cath Kidston...in a moment of madness I paid £20 for a tin bucket :/
My bed! Favourite place on Earth. I have a few different bedcovers, these grey and white crochet ones were only from ASDA. I love my bedside table with the fluffy IKEA lamp but I think the other side is ugly because of the machines haha...they so don't match my room! One is my overnight feed machine and the other is my nebuliser, I can't really put them anywhere else so they just have to stay there and be annoying. The wallpaper is from Next and my Mum drew the rabbit drawing when she was a teen...my nan recently found it and gave it to me, I think it's so cute!
My wardrobes are from B&Q, they're mahoosive and I love them. You don't want to see the mess behind those doors though, I need to seriously organise it! Sometimes I have to swap the doors around at night time or I make myself jump in the mirrors if I wake up in the night paha.
And finally, you will always find this little guy sitting on my bed watching the world go by out the window. And yep, there's always snacks in my room too...but it's a long way to the kitchen haha!
Well I hope you enjoyed my mini room tour! It really is my dream bedroom, I never wanna move out haha. It's definitely not finished, I still have photos to put up and I'd like a new chair for my dressing table. I also need a new rug because poor Freddydog was so ill on Friday and vommed on it (all of the wooden floor and he does it on the carpet...) You can find more snippets of my room here :)

I love how minimal your room is. Being at Uni leaves me unable to do much to my bedroom..!

You have such an awesome room, Josie. I may be slightly jealous.....:P
ReplyDeleteAnd that dressing table....want want want!
you have no idea how much i love your bedroom! wish i could redecorate mine but i'm moving out soon (again) so can't really ask haha. wish my 16year old self had been as obsessed with white walls and minimal things as i am now as my room is so impractical for storage as my collection of thing/hoard has got bigger!

ReplyDeleteYou have such a pretty room Josie. I can't wait til I have a place of my own and can have a bedroom full of white furniture! I just moved to a new rented flat and whilst I love most of it the bedroom has yellow wallpaper and flowery curtains that look like they belong in a kids room haha xx
