The space is coming together beautifully. I think the slow approach is the perfect way to go about creating a space as you get a chance to sit with your changes and develop your ideas in the process. It really helps you to put your personality and preferences into the project. Your paint colour experience is a good reminder to use photos as inspiration not to make a perfect copy. Look forward to seeing the completed room in the future.

Wow, I love your new cosy, 'hygge'-like space - perfect for long winter evenings, Gilian :) also, I'm curious - have you at any point used AI to to convert your 'old' room according to your moodboard?

Ooh, I love your snug! We painted our library this deep green and it’s a nice cozy colour. May the thrifting gawds smile upon you and send the perfect loveseat your way. I love the refinishing of the table, and it’s cat-approved!πŸ’•

I’m so glad you’re enjoying it, Louise! It’s taking longer than I originally expected, partially procrastination, partially kids being off for the summer, but mostly me just trying to find the right pieces, which will be worth it all in the end!

It will! Especially knowing that you’ve chosen each piece so carefully.
