Last Saturday, Max was at work and I was bored . . . So I decided to change around our bedroom and install a hanging curtain/bead head/room divider/thingy!
I have had the idea in my mind since we first moved in, but wasn’t sure of how to execute it or if it would even work! On Saturday I realised, I actually had all the items I needed – without having to go purchase anything! WIN!
– The curtains were left over from our wedding (Used in the Timbertop Chapel).
– The dowel rod was left over from the construction of the clothing racks.
– The hooks were recycled from another project.
Our bed was facing out across our backyard, looking out over our neighbour Ken’s garden. Which was lovely, but not very private. It also meant there was restricted space on either side of the bed due to the fireplace and door out to the backyard.
I spun the bed sideways to look out the left window, into our garden, therefore maximising the width of the room and using the hanging curtain/bedhead to hide the gas fireplace (no longer working) and create a divider from our “wardrobe.”
See below images for the new layout!
