The White Room

I decorated my room, and it's all fresh and white.



So I finally had some time to decorate my room. I never really have the chance to update it all at once, i've been pinning away for months now with inspiration and little accessories, so i had a good idea in my head of how I wanted it to turn out!
I just have a little printer to buy which will probably go where the flowers are and then I think i'm done. Some thinks it's a little spacious and empty but I really like how clean, bright and fresh it is, and i'm excited to work here.

The flowers are fake! from Wilkinsons, i'm really impressed with them, they're lilies, daises and other little flowers and leaves, they look great from a distance and they don't look too plastic. My lovely vase is my great Grand-fathers which is from the 1920's so I'm really glad i've found a nice place for it to go, even if it does hold fake flowers.

The top shelf is empty right now but i've got three tiny cacti to put at the top, they're currently potted in red, yellow and lime plastic pots, but i'd like to replace them with ceramic white ones.

Thankyou for looking, and I hope you like it :D

2014 Scandinavian Interior Design

Interiors have been a massive inspiration for me this year, having designed lots of cushions I've really taken a big interest in design and how they can fit within surroundings that i like. I've really loved scandinavian design, the bright whites with contrasting colours really appeal to me.

I've put together some buys based on my inspiration, I'd love to buy the expensive things, but what's the point when IKEA and Habitat have beautiful versions, i'll be buying these all AFTER christmas, so hopefully they'll all be a little cheaper, the thing i'm most excited about is the desk, its only £90 and the side pulls out, so it's great for when i'm crafting and that extra space when i'm sewing. I'm planning to put it in the corner of my room so it'll fit perfectly!

I would adore a real Eames chair to go with the desk, but as usual Ikea have brough out something which I love just as much.  The perspex chair (on the moodboard above)
I have lots of bits and pieces to organise so i love the habitat suitcase for all my threads and craft materials.

 I'll be posting pictures early next of my new room coming together!
