Wallpaper, Paint and All Things Pretty

We've been living in our house for almost 11 months now and slowly but surely we are really making it our home. The trouble with home improvement is that it takes not only time but money, something that we are quite short of right now but we are managing to make little changes here and there at minimal costs. A bit of wallpaper here, a splosh of paint there, throw in a few accessories, it is amazing the difference the smallest of jobs can make.

Re-designing the Bedroom

Since moving into our own home we've been trying to decorate one room at a time. Progress has been slow as money has been tight but the focus right now is on the loft room which happens to be our seven year olds bedroom.

I previously revealed to you the bench/toy box that my husband very cleverly built. This unknowingly set the theme of the room. We painted the bench white and purple and decorated it with silver writing and a mix of plush cushions. The look is modern and bright yet clean and it made great use of the space it was put in.
