My present room:
My room has been pretty much the same since years! Though I would of loved to redecorate it, I just didn't have the money for it and sharing room with a little sister doesn't make the task easy either. As you can see from the pictures above, my room is very childish. When we first moved in, I wanted the walls yellow and my sister wanted pink, thus the disastrous wall color!
Now, things are about to change... My older sister is about to move out with her boyfriend and my little sister is going to take over her room, leaving me with a big room just for myself. I can already savor the joy of redecorating everything! Here are some inspirational pictures I found on lovelyish.com:
My room-to-be
The idea is to have a very pale blue for the walls. You could almost say that it's white. My room lets in alot of light from outside, so a pale blue will absorb it well. Wouldn't long, white, sheer drapes go great in the room either?
My inspiration is the afternoon sky, when everything seems to be just a little burnt. I just wanted a room where I could feel relaxed, comfortable, refreshed, but at the same time young and original.
Another idea I had was to cover just one wall with a very light wallpaper like the one you can see on the picture above. It would give some dimension to the room. How about some wallpaper hung behind my large wardrobe? Plus, it gives a little vintage taste.
Actually, I would love my room to have a vintage look! The white iron bed and baskets are winners! All of these things, we can find in bazaars and thrift stores. What do you think? Anyhow, the whole redecorating process may take some time before it even happens! I'll keep you guys updated on that matter!
