Blossoming bedroom

We all know I lie around all day, plotting world domination and concocting interior design ideas just in case I ever own my own home, right? Right.

All this goes on in my headquarters, the bedroom, my room of choice on account of the heavy curtains over the window. The bedroom is a lovely dim cave. Like many PWME I’m light sensitive, too much light and my fronds shrivel. I save my light exposure for when friends are over and we hang out in the lounge.

My dear friend came over some weeks ago, bearing a magnificent lunch and decals for the wall at the foot of the bed.

She set to work while I hopped on and off the bed with the camera, fretting about whether we should draw out a plan on paper first. My perfectionism didn’t perturb her, she said it was best to whack them on the wall organically and proceeded to do so.

Below are pictures illustrating before (plain wall stunningly accented with two switches), during (herself at work) and after (unfinished in that picture, it looks even better now, but you get the idea).

I’ve always adored botanical motifs, it’s lovely to look at these.

Well done, both to the generous and gifted friend and the warm receiving photographer. That's living.

N, she is a beautiful friend and I am loving the wall.

Sherry, I quite agree, it is indeed living!

Foodycat, she looks so cute in that frock, it's a shame you can't see the front of it in that photo.
