I've lived in my house for about 4 years now. The time has gone so quickly and when I look around we (my partner and I) haven't done much decorating in that time.
So I decided now was the time! Choose a room and start beautifying! We have a large front room that we were using for miscellaneous items but the room really didn't really serve a purpose. Because this room would be easy to clear out we decided to make it the first experiment.
I know wallpaper is very 'in fashion' at the moment, but I also understand why - it's gorgeous! There are so many great designs around and I spent hours pouring over designs at a shop in Brisbane - the wallpaper shop. They have all of these wonderful samples of the wallpaper and it's very hard to choose. Luckily I didn't have many restrictions as we were planning on getting the room painted and also carpeted later down the track.
So after a few months of procrastination our wallpaper is up! Still daggy furniture, light fittings etc but at least I can say I've started to make the house pretty!

Pretty things for babies
I mentioned in one of my previous posts that it was my friend’s birthday. This same friend is also pregnant, and for her birthday I found a gorgeous wall sticker for her nursery. I’ve seen wall stickers at markets and at shopping centres but of course on the day that I wanted to buy one, there were no stalls in sight. So after some internet searching I found this shop in Bulimba in Brisbane. It’s gorgeous! If you are pregnant or have any pregnant friends you might want to pop in to My first room.
