The Swedish Touch

Those of you who have been my blogging buddies for a while know that we have been living in a house that my talented hubby designed and built, which means that it is really cool, but also unfinished, and has remained undecorated in many areas, our bedroom being one of them. We finally decided to just go for it and get some proper furniture. I am happy to report that I have a dresser that I know longer have to wrestle with. IKEA is my friend- we got simple, sturdy furniture there that didn't cost an arm and a leg (savings hint- you can get it items at a discounted rate if you head to their "as is" section near the tills... if you don't mind a scratch or two, it will save you some moola). Anyways, here are some before and afters of part of our bedroom- the bed is my favourite item, as well as the pics on the wall behind. I like a simple, uncluttered, yet relaxed look. There is more to do, but that will come another on another day and another budget!
