Bedroom

Everything has a home

EVERYTHING HAS A HOME Moving house is hard! It is said to be one of THE MOST stressful events in an average persons life. Hmmm, I am beginning to agree. As a child my family moved a lot; I can remember coming home from school and finding empty packing boxes in my bedroom, this would be my signal… we’re moving again. When I grew up, and had control over these life-changing events, I chose not to move too

Love your bedroom

LOVE YOUR BEDROOM This one room needs to set you up for your day, it needs to inspire, rejuvenate, as well as excite you.   That’s a lot to ask in a space that is often neglected in terms of decorating.  Think about it; not many people get to see this room, but as its where you both start and finish your day it’s probably the most important to your well-being. Quick Tips Invest in a good quality bed

Child Space

CHILDSPACE Creating a peaceful and calm home is one of my priorities, however each room must be reflective of the personalities that inhabit them and then come together cohesively as a whole house. Children’s rooms can be neglected, after all their interests wax and wane over time and keeping up with those trends or fads can become expensive. Merchandise is cleverly marketed to children, not you and so if your littlest is Barbie – mad you can be sure

A Guest Room Joosh Up

A GUEST ROOM JOOSH UP My Guest Bedroom is a tricky space to furnish, the pitched ceiling means a much lower bed which means that most bedsides towered above or just looked a little, well little.  This clever shelf, part of the Made of Tomorrow Fold range is the perfect alternative.  Being wall-hung it can be positioned perfectly, its powder coating is durable enough to take any knocks and its curves add a bit of softness to the

My Tips for a Top Sleep

MY TIPS FOR A TOP SLEEP The older I get the more sleep eludes me.  What used to come naturally now seems to need preparation.  So I’ve done the research and I’ve tested the tips and here is what comes out on top. #1.  The bedroom itself plays a role; though the aesthetics won’t help you sleep, if the environment pleases us it will encourage you to relax, there are also a few practical things you can do

Styling 101 | The Bedroom

STYLING 101 | THE BEDROOM When my little house was photographed for Homestyle Mag the photo that seemed to dominate Social Media was our Guest Bedroom, formally our master bedroom.  It surprised me somewhat as the room had been styled by me, expecting that cropped shots would be taken, not for the doorway shot that ended up being in print.  You see to me the room is too busy; there are wall lights – that I would prefer

Style up a guest room

STYLE UP A GUEST ROOM Guest rooms are fun to style as you don’t need to be practical; you can finally use that gorgeous stool you’ve always wanted to use as a bedside table; that cushion with a burst of colour; that lamp that never quite finds the right home… however I do recommend that you use good quality bedding as this can make or break the look. This small bedroom has only room for a double bed, a side table, and a shelving

Its a small world

Some of us aren’t blessed with a home with large bedrooms, in fact most of the homes I frequent have dedicated that extra space to living areas leaving the bedrooms a modest size quite adequate for what they intended… a bed. And so often here we are trying to cram all manner of equipment into them and wonder why our sleep is less than enjoyable. After being asked to help with this tweens room after she took it

Bedside Beauty

BEDSIDE BEAUTY I am searching for the perfect bedside table. Though it cant just be a table can it – we need to store things – important things like face creams. My client brief is simple; it needs to white and it needs to be different from a normal bedside. So I’ve narrowed it down. I wonder if Goldilocks had trouble with the bedsides during her foray into the little house in the woods? Anyway these are my pickings to date…
