seasonal haulin'

October, to me this is the month where i begin to think/plan out all thing to do with winter, & this year was no different.  Every quarter it's normal procedure for me to redecorate/reorganise my room to fit the coming season, & there's nothing i love more than preparing for winter, new bedding, new throws, new candles (well i buy candles all year long, but new scents!), new rugs, new everything! I, along everyone else i would imagine, love nothing more than to get super duper snuggly & cosy in winter, the onesies come out to play, the hot chocolate with all the toppings re-enter my life & the christmas markets come to town, a few of the many reasons winter is my favourite season.  Although we're early in October, the weather is dropping & the nights are drawing in, so i have begun my redecorating a little early perhaps, but i cannot say i mind too much! Interior design is something which i very much love! any chance to redesign a room i jump at the opportunty! So i thought i would show you some of the things i've picked up this last week, i am not near finished, & will probably show the finished result maybe early November, but i thought i'd give you guys a heads up incase like me, you're feeling a little winter loving & simply cannot wait much longer!

 1) IKEA Wire Rack - i purchased two in defferent sizes, & personally i think i'll be using these to store nail polish &/or jewellery!
  2) EBAY Metal Heart fairy lights - I currently have fitted wardrobes on two walls,so these will most likely be laid out at the top of them, or maybe outlining a mirror!
3) URBAN OUTFITTERS Zig-Zag Rug - i was split between this rug or a faux fur one, this won although i am kind of feeling the faux fur for winter!
4) IKEA Tealight Lanterns - Another lovely little find from Ikea! i purchased two, of which will probably be placed on a shelf & in the window!
  5) IKEA Storage Boxes - i purchased four of these, simply to store photographs, sunglasses & other little things that need a place!
6)IKEA candles - i love candles, so so much.  
7) IKEA underbed storage - i purchased two of these, they're super large & i thought would be good for storing my kit, scrapbooks, all things makeup related basically.
8) IKEA curtains - now i haven't purchased these with the intention of using them for a window, i have all my heels placed on shelves, keeping them off the floor & looking swell, however because of how many i have, it sometimes looks a little cluttered & at the moment i'm very for minimalism, haha! So i purchased these with the intention of using them to cover my shoe shelves! 

all this winter/christmas talk has put me in the mood for a hot beverage!

Ciao! RWxo
