This follows on from a previous thread I had but can’t be bothered to change user name back. Immmaking my small single into a spare single which my DC will use when back from
uni. It’s tiny so thinking just lovely rug, lovely bedding and maybe dark colours to make it feel nice and cosy and a fabulous lamp and textiles. Show me yours if you don’t mind. Or any lovely pins you know of if working on your own little teeny room? Thank you 🙏

Yes
that isn’t a bedroom size

Overthebow · 12/10/2025 19:53

I’m not sure that’s a bedroom size room. Would you even get a proper bed in it?

Moonlightdust · 12/10/2025 20:04

How about something like this?

would the bed need to accommodate the bulkhead cupboard if so it’d be a squeeze. I get a joiner in and they can build a platform for a bed so you can get a proper size single. Clever storage under. Drawers , cupboards.

Alternativrly a Murphy’s bed that folds up to be a desk

I hadn’t seen OP size before i posted the reply they aren’t ‘substantially larger’ they are about the size of the box room in the house- OP asked for box room pictures xx

I wouldn’t describe those as box rooms… comfortably fit a bed, desk, chair, chest of drawers, plus empty floor space
