Hellooooo, DIY’ers. I recently “e-met” Chloe from
“We recently bought a house that was built in the 1830s over in England. (How cool!) It needed a complete renovation, serious renovation works, we may as well have rebuilt it. This is the main bedroom which we split into two. We tried to keep as much of the character as possible including the original floors and fireplace.”
I love old homes and old European homes have so much character. This was Chloe’s bedroom before:
Now it’s an adorable country farmhouse bedroom full of 1830s charm…
The room is full of family treasures…
Gorgeous vintage/sentimental (her Nan’s) chandelier…
“found” fireplace
Isn’t it adorable? I just love it!

There’s a lot of fun, thrifty fashion finds to inspire you too! 🙂
What a gorgeous and soothing bedroom! Such a transformation. Love the vintage chandelier.
So primitive, so country. I love it!
cozy, warm, and pretty. Great transformation 🙂
Love the little British bedroom. Wanted to let you know I definitely think you are worth “waiting it out” :). You have such great style and panache DIY Showoff is so worth the wait.
And, I feel your angst with failed attempts; the backside of blogging is not easy. Hang in there.
