Quote fail, but you get the gist 😂

It doesn't look like this now 😬 this was when we first decorated it. Replaced our wooden wardrobes with the Ikea ones which I wasn't sure was the right thing (but was the cheapest option) and they've really given us much more storage space. Really wished we'd changed the carpet when the room was empty!

@PurpleButterflyWings @ClaudineClare thanks, we lost him last year, utter dude he was! This is his brother (foreground) with one of the puppies behind in my room. They had waited for me to get out of the bath. I’m more into comfort than style in the bedroom, brushed cotton sheets!

Right. I wanted to “wait until my room is tidy” (never post a photo) but something needs to be done. This is my bedroom, right now, in all its rot and glory. Replete with brassiere tossed asunder, my son’s evicted Super Mario (his face was scary, Sudocrem, discarded baby bottles (evidence of my failure as both a breast feeder and dishwasher loader), creased bed sheets, laundry on the chair “waiting to be put away”, wires on the floor, enormous telly and no intellectual books in sight.

This is where I made, held and nursed my children. This is where we giggle on Saturday mornings. This is where I lie on husband’s chest and chortle at Taskmaster when the kids are in bed. This is where I put together my best and worst outfits. This is where I went into labour. This is where my c section scar burst! This is where my grandmother told me she had cancer. This is where I live.

Now, share yours!

Thank you. A great post.
You have some fascinating little cupboards. Do they give access to the eaves.

thaegumathteth · 23/11/2022 23:04

Ha no. My room is a shit tip where everything goes to be shoved in a cupboard.

PeloFondo · 23/11/2022 23:04

@userxx yes, I love them! I have these in the bedroom, living room and kitchen

This is my bedroom

I adore everything about this room!!! 😍😍

Sd352 · 23/11/2022 23:05

Mine from 6 years ago. Perhaps the one time in my life I got it tidy. Bedroom in current house has never ever been tidy…

I miss Crumbs and her grand bedroom/Parisian hotel room.

Festooned with cumberland sausages.

ChillyFingers · 23/11/2022 23:10

Don’t those of you with laminate floors, without rugs next to the side of the bed, get cold feet when you get out in the morning? Makes me shiver thinking about it.

Nothing else to add as I cbarsed to go upstairs and take a pic of my very tasteful boudoir.

It's Christmas, she's too busy hanging fairy lights on goats and baking the village Wellington

ljs22 · 23/11/2022 23:11

Here's mine. I did a quick tidy up just for this photo. Grin

(On a serious note, anyone know where this is? It's breathtaking, I could spend all day in this room... )

Crumbs will be stirring the puddings. It's a month long task

the meat filling being all those chippy villagers who didn't bow and say 'm'lady' to her when passing her in the street.

Ohdofuckofdear · 23/11/2022 23:14

OP I love your bedroom it's gorgeous!

The square shelving you have is what I've been looking for for ages but the one place I hadn't looked was Amazon(I've been trailing round different shops instead)so thankyou for sharing where they came from.

Spanglybangles · 23/11/2022 23:14

Here’s mine. Not very exciting, but I like it (strategically hidden the mess elsewhere in the room of course) 😆

Are they stars on the ceiling or where did you get them as very calmin. On the middle shelf to the right of the window is that a furry spider hanging out of a pot?

Hollywolly1 · 23/11/2022 23:17

Calming not calmin🤣

danceyourselfdizzy1 · 23/11/2022 23:17

@MoonlightMedicine Is your bedding from La Redoute? It's really lovely (sorry if this has been asked already, haven't read all the posts)!

MerryHen · 23/11/2022 23:19

It's too dark to get a photo, I'm already in bed and the room is a pit so I'll try paint a picture with words instead.

DH and I sleep in the smallest of three bedrooms, almost half the room is taken up by a Hemnes day bed (Ikea darling 😆), pulled out into a double which is currently covered by a waffle blanket, fleece blanket and topped with a lovely patchwork quilt my aunts made us when we married (I find it hard to get a comfortable temperature with duvets so have done away with them).

The other half of the room is my home office including a painted black desk with dark wood stained top (upcycled the pine desk from when I was a teen), a large wooden chest made by my step dad (he was a furniture maker) covered with a giraffe print throw, which I usually use as a desk seat, a dark pine bureau also made by my step dad, many box files and a floor strewn with books. Most remaining space between bed and desk is currently taken up by a massive gym ball which I'm sitting on to work while pregnant. Various photos, art work, kid's artwork, a wire notice board thingy and a small shelving unit adorn the walls, which are a pale blue.

Floor is mostly covered by a large mustard coloured rug (IKEA!), curtains are dark blue, behind which are large double mullioned window (house is almost 200 years old) which take up most of the outside wall, there's a tapering chimney breast behind the bed, the room has double sliding doors with a double fanlight window above them covered with this art nouveau design.

If you successfully picture what that looks like then well done!

@TattoedLady

Thank you! Gosh, it's insanely stunning! And only 27 million dollars. Might arrange a viewing. Always fancied moving to Colorado. Grin

Hmm. I don't think so but I can't remember where I got it tbh... online somewhere. Confused
