The bedroom makeover

When we saw this house for the first time, our bedroom certainly didn't look as bright and airy as it does now. It was rather dark and brown...which I suppose fit in rather nicely with the rest of the house (you can see before and after pics of other rooms here and here)

 This was what it looked like before.

For the most part I don't think you can go wrong with lots of white and neutrals in the bedroom all year round. I find white to be very calming and relaxing, so sometimes our bedroom is the perfect sanctuary for me to escape to when some of the other occupants of this household are driving me bonkers ;)

So, the first thing we did was paint all the walls and trims white. Aside from that the only changes we made were putting in new curtains and pulling up the carpet - which still hasn't been replaced, but I would rather live on concrete floors than that cack-green mess that was on the floor before!

 And of course all white bedding and tonnes of pillows are a must too :)

 So what do you think? Better now? Could you get a good night sleep in here? 

Have a great week peeps!

p.s. Husband says thanks for all of your nice comments on his terrarium. I'm very pleased with his first attempt at upcycling too ;)
