I found this upcycling project by stylist Nancy Straughan very inspiring. It’s amazing what a lick of paint and a few decorative knobs can do, isn’t it? Below Nancy’s image (top) are a few door knobs that I’ve been coveting recently. 

1) John Lewis | Round Wood, £3.50

2) John Lewis | Round Marble, £5.00

3) John Lewis | Brass Fox, £5.00

4) Anthropologie | Orla, £10.00

These images by Cate St Hill create a wonderfully tranquil atmosphere. I love the combination of the soft grey and dusty pink tones. The contrasting yet natural textures of the woven basket and linen bedding are calming, and I love how the eucalyptus leaves tie everything together. I also like the idea of a decorative shelf above the bed.

With the new year still ripe with opportunity, I feel motivated to take up the interior projects I’ve been dreaming up over the last few months. I thought I’d share the list of tasks I’d like to complete in our bedroom this year.
