Finally painted my room!! always wanted to do it but... its either I'm lazy... or just plain lazy to do it.
This was really LAST MINUTE, I'm not sure what hit me to do it the next day when the idea came to me, but you know, analysis kills spontaneity. Sometimes you just gotta do it! DONT THINK!
So when I thought about it, I went to buy a Kingkoil queen-sized bed the next day, waited for 2 weeks for the new bed to come. Meanwhile I started to think what to put on the wall, I wanted to have an autumn feel thus I painted peach color (yay peach!!) wall paint. Went to search for the grey paint after my bed is fixed. This particular matt grey paint was so hard to find compared to the glossy grey.
Anyway I painted a falling leaves tree, I had the image in my mind and spent around 1.5 hours to paint those leaves, still loving it so far.
Part of the reason of why I chose to paint instead of hang a picture was because we used to have a whole wall (yes, whole) painted in a picture in my old home. It was a scenery, like an ancient landscape painting includes of mountain, waterfall, trees, seagull, animals, small hut, fog etc etc. It was a master piece.
We paid for painting artist to do it and I still remembered he spent around one or two week to finish the whole thing. I would sit around the sofa and watch him paint, we've got all kind of paint lying in the living room like his own working room hahaha! he likes the smell.
I was still in primary school I think. The amazing part was he just stand in front of our wall and think for a few minutes before he touch it or when in doubt, he could just paint the whole thing out with no mistake.
I will dig out the wall paint and post it up!
Here are some pictures taken by iPhone.
I love this effect!
These are 2 new DIY shelves I bought from IKEA. Love it when everything is organized.
Spot that duster roller at the right side on the bottom shelf, roller in white with blue stick. oh man that roller is amazing, I can't live without that now. I am serious. It saves my time! I just roll it on my bed every night before I sleep! roll it on clothes etc. such a fantastic creation to stick all the hair and dust. hahahah! save my time to pick it up one by one (before I got the roller). I cannot stand dirty, especially hair strand on the floor (those you can see) or dust on the floor (you can feel it when you walk) and dust on the table etc etc.
New bedsheet! Original Sgd 211 for a set! ($179 for bedsheet, $32 for bolster.) BUT I got a 50% discount, so it was quite ok.
100% Cotton sateen, 650 threadcount. Utterly soft and comfortable to sleep in. Abit pricey but really worth it. I love the plain design, material and dark color, that's exactly what I want!
Also, that's my happy family! I only hug the oldest tigger (with pampers) to sleep every night. He is really old now, can't even sit straight. :(
That's it for my room, no more changes in the coming months. It was such a tiring process but I like the sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. Not to mention I even fixed my own washing basin. I feel like a man.
Alright, I will blog about my skincare routine soon. :)
