bedroom makeover...not quite finished!

It's taken me days of my holiday...days I tell you, to paint my bedroom and install the gallery wall.  Nothing, but nothing went easily...including the great gloss enamel  'fall down and splatter the floor and one of my new shoes' paint debacle!  And the blunted drill bits when putting up the picture ledges into the brick wall...sigh. Still, it's almost there.
I'll do a full before and after post when I get back from Taswegia (I'll be on a plane just about now!) but thought I'd give you a bit of a glimpse from the doorway just to tide you over...hope you like it...Buffy seems to 
And yes Mary, that empty shelf will be filled before you know it!

  1. It's gorgeous Kerry. I love that you have (usually very feminine) toile teamed with some more bold and dramatic elements.

  6. Mary here: It looks great Kerry. That nook looks like a great place to relax and read in. And I know from experience how comfy that chair is. And I have to tell you, I love seeing book shelves filled with books rather than just a few books and then decor pieces. Hope you have a great holiday. xx

  15. Kerry - it's gorgeous! Love how the sleeping area is dark and cocoon-like, and then it opens up into this fabulous, white and sunny spot. It just make syou long to climb into that bed at night, and get out of it in the morning. Really great! Pinning - x
