Lighting the way!

I've been planning and designing my scrap room for quite some time now and am always on the lookout for ideas of storage and colour themes.

I LOVE black and white - my favourite colour combo of all time. You can then use - and change, any coloured accessories when you get bored. I am going to have 3 white walls with one fushia pink. I have everything now except my Ikea Expedit unit which I am hoping to get by September.

Yesterday, I bought my chandelier in BHS at a bargain price! It was reduced from £120 to £36 as it has now been discontinued. In the BHS brochure, there was a £10 voucher off if you spend £40, so that is what I did and I effectively got the chandelier for £26!! This isn't it. This is the Marie Therese which is similar. I couldn't get a pic of the Genevieve which is what I have but this is the link to the black one - although it says £60. I went into the store and bought it there and then. I have the clear.

I already have my chair which I bought in Dunelm Mill last September. It was half price in the opening sale but because it had a chip on it, I got another 10% knocked off! Instead of £99.95 I got it for £45.00. I do love a bargain.
All I need now, is to shift furniture from one room to another. It's like one of those 'slidey' puzzles - moving the squares around to get them in order! IYKWIM.

Toots for now.
