This was such an awkward room to work with. It's absolutely huge, I think it possibly used to be the lounge because it is ridiculously huge for a bedroom. It is also square which is always pretty hard to work around and one of the walls is almost entirely covered in huge Georgian windows. I adore it. It's total love. It will be my bedroom, dressing room, workshop, sewing room, study space and so much more and oh my god I can't wait to show you it when it's finished!

A first look at my room.

Much much better!!!
ReplyDeletewhere did you get all the awesome furniture from? gosh ally, it's looking amazing! have you and george bought this place yourselves? i'm so jealous!
ReplyDeleteFirstly it's a pure and simple ikea hack! They're all expedit units, I think the whole thing cost me about £200 which is pretty ace. And sadly no, collectively we couldn't afford a cardboard box. One of my friends' parents live abroad and they bought a house for her to live in throughout uni, I'm tagging along... I seriously realise how lucky I am.
DeleteI can't wait to see the final result, it already looks so niiiiice :D Too bad you left, I was thinking of flying to Edinburgh next Saturday and stay until early September. Could have been fun to meet ^_^
ReplyDeleteAww naw that would have been so cool!!! I'm coming back up on the 9th if you're still there then?
DeleteNo, it would be until the 3rd :( I'll be moving in definitively in a year at most anyway (and probably visit a lot too, my love does his PhD in Edinburgh) High probability our paths will cross ;)
DeleteOh my goodness how have you never told me this!? That's so exciting!
DeleteLOVE this, our room is tiny so I'm totally envious of your space for starters, the idea to add handing rails was amazing though it looks amazing.
ReplyDeletejust found your blog btw, new favourite xo

We've just moved out of a single bed room that we've been living forever so I totally feel your pain. We're back at my family home for a while now and in my childhood room. It's so small I have to jump from my door way onto my single bed to avoid the pile of clothes that has arisen from lack of wardrobe space. I am pining for this space!
DeleteThat little gifset is so cute! :)
