My bedroom.

NC as obviously outing.

Just finished my bedroom.

Mutual exchanged for this house last year and my bedroom had no flooring down, just rough planks, constant splinters in my feet 😂 No curtains, it was grey and red previously, just didn't feel like my own space at all.

But finally finished my room and I love it so much.

The room looks lovely. Bet you can’t wait to go to bed at night. That rug is amazing, it looks so expensive.

DisforDarkChocolate · 16/03/2024 19:47

Wow! You have done an amazing job, it looks wonderful.

How did you do the flooring?

It's just click together laminate.

I love it.

Best bit about the thread was

"It's missing a cat"

"Here it is" Grin

What's a mutual swap? As in council house. Looks gorgeous and not how I imagined council property

Yes, agreed swap in housing association properties.

Looks like a great place to relax , and really impressed at the budgeting reusing. Obviously the cats a bonus too !

Thankyou, it's definitely more cosy.

And I've had to put a cat bed on top of the wardrobe as Puss has claimed it.

Beautiful room.
I’ve saved your colour in my photos. Gorgeous!

PuppiesOnTheWay · 17/03/2024 09:05

Beautiful!!!
It's nice to see something created by someone without a limitless 'Grand Designs' type budget 😊

It look me an age to choose.

I would definitely say to buy a sample for your wall as I originally chose a different Valspar paint based on the swatch card instore and online photos.

It looked absolutely nothing like either once dried on my own wall.

It's lovely. Beautiful room.

For years I have had horrid bedrooms, all beige and bland and ratty carpet. We always spent money on the kids or other parts of the house. Every house we lived in our bedroom was the shabby one.

I finally did my bedroom about 3 years ago and I love it. It's my sanctuary and I can't believe I've spent 30 years (or more) living in grotty bedrooms I hated, thinking it didn't matter and I could put up with it.

ssd · 17/03/2024 20:22

Its really nice looking op, well done!

ssd · 17/03/2024 20:23

I also loved the comment "all it needs is a cat "......"what that cat on top of the wardrobe ".....

Classic Grin

ChickNorris · 17/03/2024 20:26

Gorgeus result, OP. You clever thing. This gives me the inspiration to crack on with my own bedroom.
I myself have embraced the dark, in my living room, and still feel SO happy walking in there, years on. I'm sure it'll be the same for you.

dontcallmelen · 17/03/2024 20:32

@3RingCircus I really love it beautiful colours, the rug is very pretty & you’ve done a great job painting the furniture, I have similar colours in my front room & find it very calming & peaceful enjoy your lovely new room & house.

Jowak1 · 17/03/2024 20:33

Such a beautiful 🤩 room I wouldn't want to get out of bed lol 😂.

VivienneDelacroix · 17/03/2024 20:37

Wow - really stunning op.

EveryOtherNameTaken · 17/03/2024 20:42

It's lovely!!

Tessisme · 17/03/2024 20:44
