A Quick Master Bedroom Refresh…plus a new family member!

May 11, 2021 33 Comments

Bet I got you going there! Nope, I haven’t been secretly pregnant for the past nine months (although, it would have been a good explanation for my tardiness around here). But we do have an inherited fur child in the form of this curly beast… Meet Rose, affectionately known as Fluffle – when she is...…READ MORE

Master Bedroom Mini Refresh

March 5, 2020 33 Comments

I’m interrupting my regular suite extension posts to share this impromptu little make-over of my master bedroom. Not having anything pretty or finished to show you guys has been bugging me (and probably you too!), plus I’ve been going a little crazy with nothing to decorate or style, so yesterday I decided to play around...…READ MORE

A Master Bedroom Mini Refresh

June 9, 2016 41 Comments

I last shared pics of my master bedroom over three and a half years ago. Not that I think there’s anything wrong with that. In fact, there’s actually lots that’s very right about it. You see, when I did share those pics, I also mentioned that creating spaces with a focus on longevity is a...…READ MORE

Master Bedroom Mini Makeover

January 24, 2013 85 Comments

I first, and last, shared a complete tour of my master bedroom waaaay back in 2010. It was a time when I still ignored the kid’s department in Kmart, thought ‘twitter’ was simply the sound a bird made, could wear a white shirt and keep it clean all day long, and had no idea how...…READ MORE

Sliding Wardrobe Door Update

January 27, 2012 24 Comments

If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you probably remember this simple robe door makeover from about a year ago…. When I re-decorated my master bedroom, I simply painted the ugly beige metal surround with enamel spray paint to create a more cohesive (i.e. less ugly) look. I thought some readers, who may be entertaining...…READ MORE

Time Management and New Ticking Sheets

November 14, 2011 23 Comments

Check out pics of my updated bedroom here. I pretty much never publish posts like this (with potentially boring ‘real life stuff’). I know many of you visit purely for decorating inspiration, so if you’re simply interested in seeing some pretty pictures then scroll straight to the bottom where you can read more about this…. Anyhoo, in non-decorating related news,...…READ MORE

Quick and Easy Robe Door Revamp

Firstly, thanks so much to everyone for all the baby well wishes – you guys are just too sweet :-) Now, on to some decorating stuff!!! I wanted to finally share the little face-lift I gave my master bedroom built-in robe. Remember how a little while ago I put out an S.O.S for some dummy strap hinges like...…READ MORE

Enhanced Natural Timber Furniture

December 1, 2010 43 Comments

Update: Check out how my timber furniture looks in my refreshed farmhouse style master bedroom here. Before I began my master bedroom revamp I knew I wanted some rustic timber to keep the space warm and grounded, however finding the right pieces to ‘restore’ rather than ‘refurb’ is easier said than done. We all know how easy and...…READ MORE

Distressed White Cabinet

November 19, 2010 17 Comments

Remember this little cabinet from my bedroom reveal? I reckon this early 1900’s cupboard was originally some kind of kitchen dry store or food safe though I picked it up for $60 off eBay knowing it would be a perfect new house for all our shoes. This was the simplest of makeovers. I really wanted to retain the chippy,...…READ MORE

Chalky Washed Armoire

November 11, 2010 72 Comments

Thanks so much for all the lovely comments about my bedroom revamp. One of the most mentioned and asked about items was the armoire. Well, ‘armoire’ is perhaps a tad too fancy, it’s just a plain free-standing robe really. It was funny to read all the different comments eluding to its colour. Most of you thought it...…READ MORE
