Since moving into a bigger house away from the central area of Brisbane, I finally got a big room with plenty of space to put things and decorate with.
But since I don't really plan to live here for that much longer, I decided to decorate my room with some basic things I don't mind leaving behind, or things I can easily take with me where I live next.

I think books really make a room or living space homey. It adds character, age and of course, reading materials! |
|
An enclosed cabinet keeps the dust away, so cleaning those unread books isn't a problem. |
|
Another item that makes brings a room/living space to life is living things! |
|
Matching cups and canisters for all my lady things. I also made the cardboard chest from cardboard gift boxes! |
|
Courtesy of my lovely Julia who brought me this treasure from New York! |
|
Bookshelves and art for dat extra oomph. (Bookshelves, mostly to put all my crap on.) |
|
Pillows and cushions - mostly because I have a need for a layer of pillows between the headboard and my actual pillow... |
|
An extra sheet incase of guests/using it as the actual blanket in Brisbane summer! |
|
I'm quite fussy with bedsheets, I like higher thread count of course, but definitely, definitely 100% cotton. Also a bonus if the pattern is pretty and matches the rest of the space. The one I have is from Target - it's a summery, industrial design. |

A rug, for activities on the ground. i.e. throwing all my stuff on the floor! |
