Clutter Clearing Twist
Well my clutter clearing has taken a bit of a twist. It's sort of like
it has a life of its own and I'm just assisting, but it must be coming
from my brain!
Today I went to Dunelm Mill (UK interiors shop,
not expensive) and bought two pictures, 2 lamps and 2 small tables for
my bedroom, came home and reorganised my bedroom layout. I need to get
things tidy again in there now, but it does make more sense than it did.
The new pieces are more contemporary and give a fresh feeling to the
room.
I have also temporarily relocated my study into the dining
room, so I can take the huge old warped desk apart to dispose of it.
This works surprisingly well, except for the slight downside of now
having no dining room. I did only use the dining room for the occasional
dining with a guest and drying laundry, so I'm not sure whether I'll
put it back to a dining room or not afterwards. I seem to be getting
more use out of my home this way, so maybe I need a gateleg table I can
erect for guests?
I think you are on a roll Ruthie. It may seem like hard work to start off with and then things get moving and it just takes off. Lovely items for your bedroom.
ReplyDeleteI really don't know how large your dining room is but if you can have a gateleg table to put up when you have company and enough places to put paper work, etc. when you have company, then your desk can be a side board for food. I think you are going to like this arrangement.
Gateleg tables are the best... THE BEST.
ReplyDeleteI love getting a chance to re-shuffle the house, and those new lamps are so cute! I vote for dining room= not for much actual dining. ;)
I LOVE changeing around room layouts and room purposes. How exciting to find out what works best for you.
ReplyDeleteI would make your dining room into a study/library/dining room. Books are cozy! Gateleg tables are cozy! Dinners are cozy. It all fits together.
