My Boudoir...

I have so many ideas for future blog posts and one of them was a little taste into what's inside my bedroom however since last year I've really wanted to decorate it but I just had no idea  what I could possibly do with it. Do I have it pink? Green? White? So, February 2014 I bit the bullet and just thought 'lets just see what happens and go with it'. At first I thought I wanted to downsize in bed size, I've had a double bed since the age of 5 but I had seen so many daybeds that looked so good! After sleeping in a single bed for a night I decided I couldn't get rid of my double! Then I wanted a place where I could sit and work but also sit and chill. I wanted bright, happy colours in my room because before it got done it was dark purple and made my room look quite small! Me and my parents started to paint it all white and instantly it made it look huge. I was up to my eyes in picture frames and lamps and bedding! But after a month of pulling it all together it's finally done! Walls and radiators are bright white along with all the door frames and doors! Everything has been built up and put exactly where I want it! The following pictures are some of the favourite things in my room that I chose.

I chose my bedding first. I wanted something that would stand out amongst the white walls and I was 110% adamant to get something flower related. I chose this bedding from ASDA Living and as you'll see throughout this post I got quite a lot of things from ASDA because I do think they sell really good things for your room/home!

Next thing I bought was this throw just to put over the end of my bed. I put this over me as well as my duvet in the winter when its too cold and then in the summer when its too warm I can just put this over me instead of a heavy duvet!

(Cherry Smelling Hearts- Sold out)

I got an old fish-bowl from my grandparents a few weeks ago and straight away knew exactly what I was going to put inside. Now as my auntie works in Lush she sends down all the left-overs quite often and as Easter will shortly be here I'll no doubt be receiving some Easter Lush things! 
If I go out shopping and smell something nice it will probably end up coming home with me and this is how the two candles ended up in my room...they smell soooo good!!
And finally, the cherry smelling hearts are like a present from heaven. I have hung these above my wardrobe and my wardrobe is near my bedroom door so every time I walk out of my room I just get this strong smell of cherries and its just too good.




My grandparents went on holiday the other day and bought these lilies the day before so obviously as it was a waste if they were just going to sit in the house whilst nobody was in for a week so I claimed them and now they feature in my room and I love them. I'm going to make a point of buying different flowers every few weeks as I think they look gorgeous!



 I'm a sucker for sweets and you'll soon realise that very quickly. I used the last little bit of the coffee the other day and the best idea I had ever came up with popped into my head so with that idea I went out straight away and bought 6 packets of jelly beans. (Whilst writing this I am currently sat with the jar in-between my legs and eat them). The live next to my Lush fish-bowl and I've even asked my gran to save her coffee jar the next time she finishes one so I can put more sweets in!

(Buy in purple: Lamp)
(Desk)

The last thing I wanted to share was this little part of my room, its by far my favourite bit. I can sit here and do homework and everything but also put my feet up and relax whilst watching my television or on my laptop. I bought the desk on Amazon when I seen it had a super good deal on it... It was meant to be £60.00 but I got it for £38.00!


I hope you enjoyed this super long post (the next one won't be this long!)
I'll be uploading a mid-week post next week!
