A BIT OF A CHANGE

 We had a little change around of my daughters room on the weekend, starting with a move of the bed and desk (amazing what a different feel it gives the room) ....
  
..... then a bit of  much needed de-cluttering and book sorting.

 We framed this Twiggy poster, I found it half hanging off a telegraph pole on my weekend in Melbourne (I think it was an ad for a beautician or something) It was a bit scrunched and damaged but I kind of like that and it's a nice reminder of a fun weekend.


We hung these rails (I think they are actually tea towel rails) .... but they are great to hang clothes on ....




.... and my Scotty dog also got a new home (you may remember him lit up at the end of this post).....
I think he likes it !!!

Thanks for all the comments letting me know the poster was Twiggy, I wrongly wrote it was Edie Sedgwick  ... all fixed now !!!

I love rearranging furniture every now and then - nothing new but everything feels so fresh afterwards! Love the use of those tea-towel racks!

An inspired vignette - and a lovely place for your daughter to study. Love the little camellia too!

It looks so nice, I really like your use of the tea towel rails! Just one thing: the girl on the poster is actually Twiggy from this (http://www.google.com.au/imgres?q=twiggy+smoking&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&tbm=isch&tbnid=rbnP0T0fQrsczM:&imgrefurl=http://contagiousfashionfever.blogspot.com/2011/04/twiggy.html&docid=wKSjqWUMZCJjIM&w=650&h=604&ei=OOwwTsuHEYvBtgf_7_iZDQ&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=136&vpy=228&dur=188&hovh=216&hovw=233&tx=83&ty=163&page=2&tbnh=117&tbnw=141&start=15&ndsp=17&ved=1t:429,r:12,s:15&biw=1024&bih=564) photo!

A table in a new corner is always exciting. And to have a friend to bring some light like that must make it very special.

Happy summer greetings from hot Finland.

You did some really good changes. Your house, for what I had seen shows the influence of your inspirations that you post here. The room is really nice with beautiful little touches.

see you.

Nothing like furniture rearranging to breathe fresh air inot a room. I love your daughter's room! Great use of tea towel rails...

The room looks great and interesting use of the tea-towel rails tool, I like the fresh, open feel of the room too thanks for posting this!

I love her room. It's so peaceful and elegant. Maybe like your daughter from what we see of her on this blog :)

PS. My teenage room was plastered floor to ceiling in Pearl Jam posters – and I still love Eddie!
