Uni Bedroom

I've been naughty and haven't posted in here for a while. Not sure why, just went through a cba phase I guess. But I'm back and hopefully for good!

I started my second year at university in September and moved into my first student house! I got the short straw on choice of rooms (smallest room on the bottom floor) this is what I had to work with...


So I rolled up my sleeves and became a thrifty goddess.
This is what my room looks like now...



As you can see I like Victoria's secret! I'm also trying to lose weight so the dresses hung on my wall are for 'thinspiration'.


The theme of my bedroom is Shabby chic. I got my dressing table from Ebay for £60 and I covered the horrible blue wall with material from Ikea which was £6.99. The fairy lights are from a shop in the lanes in Brighton called Cable and Cotton (http://cableandcotton.co.uk/blog/) - You can choose your own colours and they're reasonably priced. I may do a separate blog post on them.


Fairy lights under material are from poundland.
Lamp is from Ikea.
Chandelier is from TK Maxx

Chalkboard heart from Hobbycraft, Fiat canvases from Primark.

 A job well done I think! I'm so happy with my room now. There's nothing like coming back to a nice cosy bedroom!

How have you decorated your room? What style do you like?
