When I spotted the My Dream Bedroom competition on Love Chic Living and Mammasaurus, run by Debenhams earlier in the week, I was so excited to get designing!
I do love any excuse to spend my evening browsing the web to bring together a look and feel for a particular room in the house. This time it was made easier by sticking to one website alone. This competition was also easy to get into as I am already thinking about how I would like our bedroom to look in our new house. So, being encouraged to sit down and really think about it was bliss.
I started to style this room around the John Rocha bed linen which I would describe as classic and crisp with a vibrant edge. I love colour but I also think a bedroom should be calm and relaxed so I tried to accent a mainly white theme with some interesting splashes of black and red. I admit I do always get tempted my luxurious floral wallpaper and bed linen but then I remember that I need something that reflects Neil and I both.
