Writer's Clutter + Giveway Winner

Over the weekend , in between a mountain of photography prep, my mother and I decided to change my room up a bit. I've always loved the idea of a desk in front of the window where I could look out and dream whilst sketching (or more likely doing homework). We moved my bed, my desk and my wardrobe and I just LOVE the results. I plan to show you the rest of my room soon :)

Now for the giveway winner...It was SO hard to choose just one as I appreciate all of your support. In the end I put three of my favourites in a tea light holder and asked my brother to do the big reveal.

Congratulations BETH from @catchingoptimism

Room Inspiration #1

Hello! Ever since I first moved into this house I have had the same room. And I will continue to have the same room unless I change it. Considering I am doing this mini redecoration with money from my own purse, I cannot purchase everything I desire... So I will DIY it! This summer I have decided to turn my room from a prettypastelvintage palace in to a sophisticated bedroom. However, I don't have a lot to work with considering I cannot purchase any furniture or move the furniture around or paint the walls. Hmmm. 

I really really really LOVE this mood board I created from bea-u-tiful rooms I found on the wonderful wide web. I am hoping to incorporate some black into my bedroom *goth alert* alongside the blues and greens of the pastel colours to add an industrial edge *my inner interior designer is escaping*. I am so excited to start and will make sure I document any DIYs I do and share with you guys! So far I have come up with a list of steps:

1. Buy new black and white bedspread

2. Buy fairy lights to brighten up the wall

3. Print out pretty black and white prints

4. Change poster in frame with a DIY print

5. Hang up photo frames in a collage

6. Up-cycle my bin AND my chest of drawers - paint mint green/ pale blue

7. Make a dream catcher

8. Think of more steps (erm)

Hope you enjoyed this style of post, have a happy happy day...
