Soooo - here's the transformation of this room!

Bedroom 2 when we viewed the house in August 2013:
This was March 2015, but is what the room looked like for most of the time we've lived here - it was our bedroom until we renovated the master bedroom:
July 2015, after we moved into the master bedroom:
Started stripping the wallpaper:
Wallpaper stripped and ceiling plastered, October 2015:
Walls painted, November 2015:
Carpet up and priming the cupboard shelves, December 2015:
New carpet! 4 December. This was a hugely momentous occasion as by this point it was starting to feel like this room would never be done.
The crib is a co-sleeper crib which was a very generous gift from my wonderful girl friends - it will live in our bedroom once the baby arrives.
Today, 30 December 2015 - room is pretty much finished!
New light fitting:
I made the curtains with blackout lining, it's amazingly hard to take a picture of a dark room but this sort of shows how effective the lining is!
And with lights on:
Inside the wardrobe. Most of the furniture is Ikea's Stuva range.
We still need to hang the rainbow I made, somewhere...
And I also plan to make a cushion from the remaining curtain fabric.
