  • Me again!
    Went shopping today and bought the bedding for my bedroom and for the spare room! Along with curtains for both bedrooms and the living room!
    The curtains for my bedroom are the matching ones for the bedding - loving the colours :D The curtains for the spare room are blue and brown stripes, they seem to match up nicely. The curtains for the living room are plain but pretty, they are a mink colour and will go well with the sofa I am hoping to get! :D

    I saw my bedding and curtains online, wasn't too sure initially seeing it in store today but when I went and had a second look I actually really loved it! Loved the colours.
    The other bedroom was a no brainer once I saw the duvet cover. Then the curtains in another shop, when I saw them I knew straight away they would go together! :D
