So friends, I’ve finally gotten around to putting together our bedroom tour. Progress has been slow on getting rooms sorted in our new flat. Somehow these things just end up being a lot more drawn out than you think and then there are little touches you want to add that you put off for a while…and then a little more.

All in all I love the space and it feels like my happy place at the end of a day. That’s what it’s all about eh? Hope you enjoy having a little snoop. I do love a room tour myself! No before photos were really necessary as it was literally just this room but empty, the perks of renting in a new build!
