Yesterday I took the momentous decision to declutter my wardrobe...lots of stuff that doesn't fit anymore and all those bygone era clothes that will never come back into fashion no matter how long I keep them...time to be ruthless. All chucked in the washing machine for a freshen up and I spent the rest of the day doing this...not my most favourite of jobs...whatever gave you the impression it was all fun and games at the cubbyhole....
and the promised pics of our new totally decluttered boudoir...I do suspect that while I was toiling away with the smoothing iron...the furry boy was having a little snooze...the wrinkled dent in the duvet gives it away every time.
If only I could have the same ruthless streak when it comes to decluttering the cubbyhole
Catch up with you all tomorrow

Edited to add: To answer Jessica's question....the tape measure and sentiment strips are from a company called East of India....I did find a website but it would appear that they only sell wholesale....I got mine from the haberdashery department of my local John Lewis....but Jessica is in the US...don't think John Lewis have ventured stateside yet. And I forget that folks outside the UK are reading my blog....so "coo's tail" translates as the "cow's tail".....which means I am always late and running behind.
hope you had fun at the boot sale and got rid of you wares.
ReplyDeleteloved your translation of coos tail.
love teen & co x
lets hope you have a lovely and prosperous day! Your room looks absolutely wonderful, I'm so jealous
ReplyDeleteI'm glad our big black hairy dog doesn't do stairs. Jumping on our off white sofa now and then is bad enough.
ReplyDeleteI hope you had a good day at the boot sale.

Aren't ya glad all that ironing is finished! Not my favorite thing either! Love the "dent" in the bed from Buddy! Best of luck selling lots and lots! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Kath for the info about the cow's tail! And I know what it's like to be behind. I hate it, so always try to get ready early! Doesn't always work tho... I guess I'll go check out the company's website to see if they will ship, and whether it will cost my my first born child or not! I don't know if I'd have ironed all the stuff I was getting rid of...of course I know you'd get a higer price for it. Good luck with your sale, I hope you rake in some big bucks!
ReplyDeleteOops I forgot, I love the new spruced up rooms! You must feel so peaceful there! TFS
ReplyDeleteDefinitely TOO HOT for ironing!!! Hope you've had a good car booty and your new boudoir looks very stylish.

Your sprucing looks fab! Anytime you feel like doing some more my door is always open!
ReplyDeleteLove the dent in the duvet, a wee cosy spot!
Hope the car boot was a success, good for you ironing al fresco again any spare time theres always a pile of irioning to do too....
Love your spruced up boudoir and en suite Kath, it looks lovely and fresh and smart. My chocolate pudding doesn't do bedrooms but she does have a chair in the conservatory that she's claimed. To be honest no-one else would want to sit on it now lol!
ReplyDeleteHope you didn't get soaked today. Left home to go to Mhairi's flat and it was fine - 2 loads of washing out. By the time we got to Bridge of Don it was raining! Ok at her flat till about 5 pm but looked a bit unpleasant northwards. Came home to empty water out of basket. But most of washing mainly dry. Still needed tumble drier but could have been worse lol!!

Fab newly decorated rooms! I like to co-ordinate all of my accessories - aka toiletries - also! Beautiful colours Kath.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great car boot!

You mean you can use an iron on clothes?? I just use mine to craft! LOL. I HATE to iron! Love the new boudoir. Can't blame for Golden hooligan for curling up for a quick snooze on such a comfy looking bed! Hope that you didn't have to bring a thing home but cash!

Love your new bedroom and ensuite -the tiles in the bathroom are really nice - and I like your accent colour with the towels, bedding and bedside lamps too -both colours I really love.
ReplyDeleteAren't you good washing and ironing your old clothes to freshen them up before taking them to car boot sale - puts me to shame I just get them out of the wardrobe and straight into a bag to take them to the charity shop (they were clean when they went into the wardrobe in the first place I hasten to add!!!! - I'm not THAT bad!)
