Comments (85)It looks great, I'm glad you and your daughter are so pleased and she has lots of room for friends over, playing etc. It can also be easily and cheaply adapted as she grows if she wants. My only criticism (if you can call it that) is that if not already your daughter may soon also want the desk to double up as a dressing table and therefore I think a mirror was a good idea but the memo board (which looks great) can always be moved as and when needed. (I thought i'd posted a comment on that previously but obviously not!). I might also add a desk light there for working during winter months. So which room next?!...See MoreHelp with HUGE living room dilemma please!
Comments (42)I think that the fire place is beautiful as it is and does not need any make up!! The sideboard on the right is no so big at all and if painted with different colour than grey and distressed could become a much lighter piece with its own character. I would take the top off the left one and again shabby chick it, filling the doors with ornaments to make it more interesting. It is amazing what a transformation you can achieve with a bit of chalk paint! I am using chalk paint for my oversized wooden clocks and it can give an amazing look to a piece for wood: Giant Shabby Chic Wooden Wall Clock Contemporary Large Wooden Wall Clock Rustic Oversized Handmade Wall Clock Give it try before you get rid of them:) Anna...See MoreAwkward bedroom layout dilemma!
Comments (5)Budget permitting, matching the curtains and bed spread and adding a pair of matching and/or coordinated pillow shams along with a coordinating solid color bed skirt could make the room more formal/decorated. Something interesting above the headboard, preferably something that reflects your family's interest -- art or something on shelving, preferably modern artsy shelving -- or even a pair of swing arm wall lamps above the headboard could be all the wall decoration you need. Choose something that would add your favorite colors to the room but, unless and until you find something you truly like, leave the walls blank. Pressed metal wall art might be something to consider. http://ep.yimg.com/ay/newportantiques4-shop/mountain-scene-burnished-metal-wall-art-10.gif http://www.interiortaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/abstract-metal-wall-art.jpg You likely need more drawers for storage. Instead of bedside tables, consider a pair of wider cabinets or dressers with drawers that can serve the same purpose. You might also consider a pair of his/her file cabinets for bedside tables -- everyone has documents to file away or they could just be used for clothes. I like the second one on this page. http://office-turn.com/solid-wood-four-drawer-file-cabinets/ http://office-turn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Modern-Shaker-Solid-Wood-4-Drawers-Lateral-File-Cabinet.jpg You don't mention how high or wide the radiator is. It may be you cannot put anything above one that provides heat but see if you could add a corner cabinet or see if the white chest of drawers could fit beside the radiator or would that impede walking around the bed. Alternately, across from the bed you might consider adding shallow shelving to the wall above the radiator and/or beside it -- perhaps something with a drop down shelf/desk. http://www.eastsidehomelink.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Wall-Mounted-Desks-Fold-down-Desk-with-Drawers.jpg...See MoreHall, stairs and landing dilemma
Comments (46)Haha! No I forgot! But I let everyone choose a couple of things, including a ballerina, Eminem, some other rapper I don't recognise, the Beagle 2 Mars lander, an eighteenth century astronomer, Durham Cathedral, Groucho and Karl Marx, the Rocinante space ship from The Expanse, a famous (apparently) meme, and an x box controller!...See Moresandrasal
