by Luc Obdam
We wanted a new bed,but it ended in a total make-over of our bedroom.
We painted the walls,1 wall got wall-paper,a new laminat floor,I redid the make-up dresser,mirror and chest,new lamps and curtains and ofc......the new bed:)))
before,we had this for 12 years.I was looking for a bit scandinavian/romantic look
after painting and new wallpaper
before
I scrubbed the make-up dresser and the put white wash on it.new floor and new curtains.
The white may look very "white",but it is "gentle taupe",which has a bit of brown/grey touch in it,so it does not hurt you're eyes:)
I placed this to cover up the pipes a bit
a lot of wooden items are used
I added a few more things to the wall to finish
old skates,wheel and suitcase
closer look to what is hanging above the bed

    Looks lovely. Wondering, did you put grommets on the other ends of the curtains that have grommets on the bottom?

    You have given me some ideas for our bedroom. It has all sorts of nooks and crannies like your room has. I am seriously thinking of doing something similar to your storage that you have in your walls. We have 45 inches from floor to where the ceiling starts and we don't have a lot of storage space. You did a wonderful job with what you have. Where in the Netherlands do you live? My best friend from college met her husband over there. He and his family lived in Eindhoven.
