reveal day

welcome to today's share
my room reveal

I am pleased to say we have moved back into our bedroom but there are still a few things that need to be added like wardrobes (still can't make my mind up) but for now I love my chic (to me) bedroom.
so again I'd like to thank: Ian, Adrian (my son), Dave (plumbing work) Kenny, Jimmy (plastering), Matt (electrical) and Andrew (flooring and ballestrade )

the bedding and curtains are by Dorma

the next stage of the room renovation will be adding

wardrobes, unit/cupboards, table lamps and t.v. 

but that will be when funds allow lol

but for now I'm happy with my dream room.

thanks for stopping by 

have a fab day, now to get back to crafting. Ann
