Bedroom makeover...



Recently we've been getting our bedroom ready for the next stage of its makeover! We're going to rip up the carpet and paint the floorboards white-then we'll finally be able to put down the Aubusson rug which is still rolled up in our dining-room!

The rug is massive and I want to place it length ways underneath the end of our bed, then we'll at least have some carpet to tread on when it gets cold in the winter.
My cluttered chest of drawers also got tidied up-it's a shame TVs and digi-boxes are so ugly, but I definitely couldn't be without my TV in the bedroom! The big white roses are velvet and came from BHS (each stem is separate) and I got the fluted mercury glass candle holder for Xmas from The White Company .
The big pillar candle is from Florence-the Santa Maria Novella pharmacy. Even unlit it makes my room smell lovely and I really want to visit their London shop in Chelsea (it's on my list of shops to see along with Rachel Ashwell's new shop) to buy some of their famous pot-pourri. I keep all of my bedlinen in this chest as it holds so much-it's nearly as tall as me!
