The £5 wallpaper in all its glory.

The wallpaper is finally up in Poppy's bedroom. My bargain find. Four rolls of 1960's vinyl wallpaper for £5.00. Happy days!

Do you like?. I love!. And so does Pops.

I have been trying to organise Poppy's room. I really want it finished first so she can see her new room and adjust to the idea of moving house. With her starting full time school in September I really want her to feel settled and ready. So first stop; get her bedroom completed!.

I am now working on a scandi/retro theme. I want to incorporate lots of bright colours with the white floorboards. Look at these pictures I am using for inspiration. So cute.

I actually had a very similar wallpaper to this on my bedroom walls when I was a little girl!.

Today I found.

Just a quick post as I want to share the amazing finds I found today.

Look at these fabulous curtains. They are HUGE!!. Very long, fully lined and in immaculate condition. No fading, no worn areas. Quite simply perfect. Perfect for our bedroom. And best of all they were £20.00 from the Sue Ryder Charity shop.

Then as I walked home this wallpaper caught my eye. I have been on the hunt for some original retro wallpaper for Poppy's room. Everything I came across seemed so expensive and I loathe to pay over the odds. Then I saw this super cute 1960's red and white daisy print vinyl wallpaper. 4 rolls. For £5.00!!.

What a bargain.

So pleased with these buys.

Wallpaper lust!.

It no secret that I have a little obsession with wallpaper. I would literally wallpaper every surface in the house if my husband would let me. The brighter, bolder prints the better. Here are a few of my favourites right now.
