Finaly finished decorating my bedroom and I'm quite pleased with it Still needs a few small finishing touches but it's back to a form of normality after having no real furniture and boxes everywhere for what felt like ages!


From deep red walls, dark blue carpet and cluttered beech furniture:






To Calico walls, cream carpet and oak and glass furniture:

Where I sleep, sit and surf.


Some home entertainment and drawers.


From one end of the room...


... and from the other end.



Still to add some shelves, some art/photos to hang on the walls and curtains. But It's good to have a room that matches now!

Blimey, your room is almost of identical size and set up to mine. I have those slidey door wardrobes in that corner, my door is also in the same place, as is my window!


Looks really good!

Cheers for the replys guys!
Corsa-sxi, it's all from Ikea! Except the glass stand. The drawers are called "Malm"

Yeah it is a lot fresher Mav. The room seems much bigger and more peaceful now, rather than clutter and in-your-face red everywhere. The room felt very before I thought.

Yeah same as Mav said, The Ikea stuff is much better, very sturdy and well made. I looked at Argos and Homebase stuff etc. but even the display models were shakey when you touched them and as said, felt like polystyrene. Not a good advert for the product! And for similar stuff I found Ikea to be cheaper than Argos and the like too!

Ikea. It's called "Globbo" or something. It was £90.

Marc, the colour is Natural Calico from Dulux.

Aye. It's a double bedroom but if you put a double bed in it, nothing else fits the room!

Thanks for the comments folks.
