It's been a long time coming, but I can finally show you my finished bedroom interior, along with some extra festive decks that I've scattered about for the season. If you'd have seen my old bedroom in previous posts, then you'll notice that some furniture is still the same, I've just given it a little re-vamp and made my room much brighter, by lightening the colour scheme and injecting some colour in to it. Initially I had seen the colour palette below, of a baby pink, dark green, and a bright yellow, all of which I wanted to include throughout my new bedroom. Of course, although I hate to admit that I am getting older now, I also wanted a maturity about the styling of the interior, as well as being quirky and most importantly being able to suit my style.

Beginning with the walls, which were a major part in the transformation, by choosing a lighter shade I was able to bring more light in order to create a bigger space. In the end I chose the lightest, almost white, pink shade, only contrasting ever so slightly with the off-white on the rest of the walls. This was because I didn't want to go too bright of a pink, and it ending up becoming a little girls room. Of course, after the foundations were there, the best bit was to then add all of the soft furnishings. If you'd like, you can see the Pinterest board I had made HERE, where I kept most ideas of how I wanted my new space too look.
A big change to my room was getting rid of my wardrobe, and replacing it with a clothing rail and shoe rack, something which not only looks better, but also allows me to reach for clothes that I perhaps don't wear as often since I can physically see them. As for shoes, the same also applies, and every so often I'll alternate shoes that I display and keep the rest under my bed in plastic storage boxes. As for my desk, the space is so much tidier, and feels minimal which is what I was aiming for.

With some pieces in my room, particularly the wooden jewellery box and set of cactus, I also personalised them by hand-painting geometric designs in the same colour palette as my room. This was super simple, and really effective for making things your own, by simply using acrylic paint and tape. This would be great to do on files, picture frames, make up brush pots, the list is endless really.
In other parts of my room, all of my furniture has stayed white, however this time I've taken elements of natural wood to give it a Scandinavian edge. I've been loving this combo, and having monochrome and copper alongside, has tied the look together perfectly in my opinion. For example, the addition of the black picture frames, with some of my favourite prints, or the copper detailing on the wire basket on my shelves - I'd like to think that I've taken the scheme right the way through my bedroom.

I always think that sometimes it's in the detail, and so little things like matching candles, prints, and cushions, can really tie a room together, and by having a simple colour on the walls, I'm also able to change up these details whenever I like. That's why I've also been loving adding the extra festive details around the room, mostly from Paperchase and Ginger Ray, including a mini Christmas tree, bunting, and lots of fairy lights of course!
