In the past 3 years I have changed address 6 times – I know what I am talking about when it comes to home decor! No qualifications in interior design but plenty of experience and passion for the subject.
For a while when I was a student I was in a situation where I really had to work on a tight budget to personalise my flat. For whatever reason, having enough money to go clubbing always seemed to take priority on buying new cushions or kitchen accessories! Those were the days of crazy drunken photos, gig tickets collages and bits and bobs bought at the market. Then there where the days of frustration (renting!), when there was only so much I could do to make the place ‘mine’ without having to ask the landlord for permission. That was the time when I really discovered how a few colourful accessories could give the room a new look and feel. Finally, I am now in a position where I own a house and I can truly do whatever I want in my little empire.
Going through these stages, there has always just been one constant – all the flats and houses where I’ve lived in would say something about me.
