bedroom plans

Take a look at my plans, sketches and mood boards for my master bedroom makeover. It’s not a huge room, but I’m giving myself plenty of DIY to do.

FIREPLACE restoration

The first job I wanted to tackle in the new house was the living room fireplace, restoring the original wrought iron hidden under six (count them six) layers of paint.

BED DIY MAKEOVER

As part of the master bedroom makeover, I wanted to reupholster our bed frame. Here’s how I did it with just three tablecloths from H&M Home and a staple gun.

I treated myself to a new camera lens this week, and it arrived yesterday, so I was up first thing today to play around with it in the morning light. This is going to be a bad distraction for me today when I’ve got a ton of DIY to do! .

The countdown is on for Pearls birthday next week 🎈I can’t believe she’s going to be 5 years old 😯 Where the hell is the time going 😫 She’s already given me her birthday list - I’m sure she doesn’t need another princess dress, or that she has room for a pony, but the birthday girl gets what the birthday girl wants 🐶💃🏼🦄 . . . #dogsofinstagram #doglover #dogstagram #dog #jacktzu #jacktzuofinstagram #dogoftheday #dogsofinsta #dogs_of_instagram #dogsofinstaworld #dogs_of_world #jackrussellterrier #jackrussell #shihtzu #crossbreed #muttsofinstagram #mutts
A corner of the bedroom that I’ve not showed off before! (SWIPE FOR BEFORE) So happy with how my door restoration has turned out - layers of white gloss removed and the beautiful brass and iron door handle brought back to life 🙌🏼 Also my open wardrobe (still waiting for another pole to be fitted) painted out in a dark shade looks just how I hoped, making a bit of feature of our clothes rather than hiding them away, but without feeling too messy!

[AD] So, the table's all dressed up for dinner – now I just need some dinner guests! Who fancies it? If it's a deal breaker, these stools just looked better in these photos, I promise I don't actually make guests sit on them when they come round! 😂 It's all because the lovely people at @brostecph sent me some of their new Sandvig collection of dinnerware to get creative with and style up a few looks. They're simple off-white textured porcelain plates, bowls and mugs, but with softer, organic shapes that come with every piece being handmade, and so unique, and gentle ripples around the edge – nice detail that isn't too distracting from the actual food! They also sent some linen napkins and a vase which have inspired this 'warm neutrals' dining scheme - lots of lovely amber glass (which I'm loving right now) with a little flash of bright yellow in the candles. . .

#ad When you’re doing your food shop, do you ever end up doing laps of the supermarket like me? I hate it when I get to the end and then you realise you didn’t pick up something in the vegetable aisle and go all the way back, just to forget something you needed back where you were a minute ago...🤦🏻‍♂ That’s why @waitroseandpartners #beautifullysimple recipe cards are a pretty clever idea. All the fresh ingredients you need are in the chiller with the recipe card, and the oils and sauces by the side! 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 game-changer... anyway, I had a crack at the Mixed Tomato and Cheese Tartlet, which was super easy and tasty, and the fact that you can eat just parsley with a little oil and balsamic as a salad is an absolute revelation to me 🙌🏻👌🏻 #vegetarian #food #foodie #veggie #vegetarianfood
[AD] Another side of the bedroom, with all three shades of @earthbornpaints I used in the makeover. Flutterby on the walls, Donkey Ride on the door, skirting and windows and Hidey Hole inside the wardrobe. This was my first time using Clay Paint - it’s super easy to paint with, a great consistency and literally has no paint smell. It’s one of those weird things you don’t notice until you notice it, but really gets you thinking about how paint might be affecting your home’s air quality. Anyway, I’m being real indecisive about the styling on the other side of the room, which is why you’ve not got more photos yet!

BEDROOM MAKEOVER (well, kind of 😅) Ok, so I’m as finished as I’m going to be (for now), but that didn’t leave much time to take photos and write a blog! So here’s a corner that was finished this morning to tide you over.. I’ll share the rest tomorrow, with details of where everything is from, good photography weather permitting anyway! . . .

About me…

Hi, I'm Luke and I'm an interior designer, stylist and writer, currently living in the South East of England. I've recently moved into a new home - a Victorian terrace in need of a little TLC. 

Once upon a time, I was a contestant on BBC's The Great Interior Design Challenge, but in the many moons since then, I've been working with brands and residential clients around the world, helping to bring a touch of my individual design philosophy to their spaces. 

I'm all about understated, timeless interiors that will age gracefully, using a delicate touch to create the drama and impact demanded in homes of all shapes and sizes. 

If you follow me on Instagram, you might find out I'm also a little obsessed with my two Jack Russell crosses - Pearl and Nancy. 

That's it for now, but if you want to know any more, click the buttons below to reach out - I'd love to hear from you.
