The Darling Den – My Bedroom!
The power of dodgy photoshop! Above is a little mock up of how I DREAM my bedroom shall look. This is what the listing picture looks like. My main colours will be white, black and silver. I’ve been debating between pink or aqua accent colours. The far wall will be a feature black & white striped wall, with a super huge photo of Frodo and I. The rest will be white. I’m going to see about silver paint to do the trimmings. I’m not sure what will be happening with the carpet. I need to figure out curtains too & bedspreads. I have one doona cover and it’s bugging me, but…

New house & a poll!
I’ve mentioned in passing that we are moving, the ‘we’ being my parents and I. It’s a bit of a mixed reaction, I am very excited about the move and the fact that the place we are moving to will give me my indipendence with a sort-of granny flat. Sad though, because the house we are moving from is the house I grew up in. I’ve lived here since I was around 4, it has a lot of memories. It is, however WAY to be, it’s tri-level, with a pool, and the stairs are bit too much for my parents as they are getting older. This is the house we…

Inside my room – The Rest!
I figured I should finish off my room tour! I’ve been back around 8 months and I think this is as clean as it will ever be. Can you believe I still have about 10 full boxes still! Yeah, going from having your own home to one (very large) room is not easy! I’ve made do, and I’m just happy to have a roof over my head. I’m lucky to have great parents who let me move back home at 25! So, my room is the ‘rumpus room’ of the house. It’s large, brick walled and has a VERY high ceiling. It has a set of stairs to get down…

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
I left all my Christmas decorations in Adelaide, silly me, so I wasn’t going to put up any decorations this year, instead I’d wait and buy some at the after Christmas sales. Thing is, Christmas is one of my favourite holidays. I love finding the perfect gift for a loved one, wrapping it, and watching them open it. Those plans seemed to have changed though, after walking into Big W and spotting these little Christmas trees for $5 each, my only problem was, I couldn’t decide what colour to get. As you can see, I bought all 3! Then came the fact that I didn’t have any decorations for them,…

Welcome to my closet..
As I mentioned in my ‘Welcome to my bed…” post, i’m slowly getting my room together. Next up on my tour is my wardrobe. Basically, this is the area at the end of my bed, it’s a big step away from the ‘Clothes Room‘ I had in Adelaide, but it’s made me realise how much stuff I had and never wore. I have three tubs of clothing stored and about 2-3 to sell and give to Vinnies. I’m using a wooden clothes rack thingy I put together myself that I Mum had lying around, and my Grandmothers old linen cupboard. Nope, I didn’t get a picture inside, basically it’s tubs…
