I like the fact that you don't need a big budget, D.I.Y. experience or huge amounts of time to make a significant difference to your bedroom.

Morning All
My main bedroom hasnty been touched since I have moved inyears ago 😲 lol The room is cream, has Huge double floor to ceiling gold trimmed edges to hit and a beige carpet... Oh and paneling on a feature wall that has started coming away from the plaster... Think I will have to watch the bathroom renos 😲 lol The problem always is which room do i do first. I want the kitchen and dining room to be redone, the laundry to be redone or a the bedrooms. I think my first step should be to cull anything I havnt touched in the last year. 🙂 We are all bowerbirds!
