On Wednesday I mentioned that I’m adding a touch of glamour to one of the bedrooms. Here’s the not-so-glamorous ‘before’ shot the day after we moved in. According to an Estate Agent who recently showed a friend round a house, using a bedroom as a Dressing Room is all the rage. With no little kiddiwinks on the horizon it makes sense for Mr C and I to take a spare room each, and so on weekdays my room becomes a Dressing Room.
This room has already had a bit of a make-over and currently there’s a whole lot of monochrome. We’ve already added a white iron bed, painted up an eBay dressing table and made a lexicon card picture.


Next on the list would be finding new curtains (currently black eyelet ones that I’m not particularly fond of), adding frilly linen pilows (completely unnecessary), putting up a few rolls of wallpaper (in the alcoves), finding homes for my excessive costume jewellery collection (so that I can buy even more), and tracking down a super special light fitting (more than likely another chandelier).
Would love to know your thoughts on what colour to paint that fire surround. Do I go black, white, natural or something a little bolder?! Let me know what you think. Lauren x
