Feeling particularly uninspired in my grandparent’s home. Not that I don’t love the proximity to them, but I miss my freedom (and sanity). I want to have my own place and my room without their ugly, ancient PC and even uglier and older cupboards in it. I want to hang baubles and blu-tack pictures and drink red wine in my underwear at 2 pm, things I became accustomed to having lived alone for a million years. I miss having a billion pretty editorials on my walls, coming and going as I please, entertaining people. I just want a space to call my own again, something like these would be nice.
Mosquito nets are oddly romantic. I think this is Naomi Campbell’s room in her house in the Caribbean.
South Indian film posters. Fuck yes! They are so kitsch. I like Katie’s comic book wallpaper also.
Lovely egg-yolk lamp and magazine stack desk. I think the desk would be fairly easy to make if you punched a big hole in the center through the mags and inserted the actual legs. Maybe?
Love this. The wall, the colours and the suede seat.
This room looks expensive. But it needn’t be really. I like the contrast of the artwork against the starkness of the white.
What a beautiful nook. I could sleep here.
all of these examples are beautiful- you have really good taste! you’ll move out soon enough, i’ve been through that too.
Gosh, I just found my absolute favourite bolg! Your pictures are amazing, really. Keep it up, I like this.
And the idea of the table, to put a real leg through all the magazines, I really think you should try doing it haha. I will be waiting for a result! I think it can get really cool, I will try making one myself some day.
Love, Caroline
