Storage
As mentioned in the above image, I would like to sort out some of my furniture and how I store things. I'm quite a minimum person when it comes to possessions however I do have a few bits and bobs which I used to keep in a square cube type cabinet however I want to update this and get something slightly better and also something prettier. The unit which you can see in the above image is actually from ikea and is technically for TVs however I like the look of it, it will fit under my walls and I think could introduce a different look to my room because of the metal. It is still white (of course) so will match everything else in my room and I also like the high legs which will make it easy for moving/cleaning.
Desk Update
This is quite a hard one for me as I don't actually know what I want to do with this area. I have a really nice desk now, which I got from ikea and painted the top white and I also have one of those wire mesh grids seem in the image. However it's just all the stuff on top of the actual desk which I want to organise better. I like a tidy space and a clean desk and I want something that I can keep organised.
Lighting
This is something which I would like to invest in, I have a big overhead light and also a bedside table lamp however I would like to add an additional light around my desk area. I don't want a desk lamp as I would like this to be kept off the desk and the only thing that I like the look of is the light in the above image. It's basically just a bulb which would plug into the wall and that I could attach to my wall grid however finding any (and any that I like) is proving to be quite difficult.
Make-up
I've put make-up but basically what I mean is how I store my make-up/my dressing area. As I have mentioned, because of the walls in my room this gives me limited options so I have made up a little area in my room with a big mirror, rug, cushion and my make-up and hair things however most of the time I think this looks quite untidy and isn't very inspiring. I'm not really sure what to do to this area or how to change it up so I think continuing to browse Pinterest at the moment is the only thing I can do.

As I am intending to drag some of my family around Ikea over the bank holiday weekend, I thought that I would put together a Wishlist of a few bits which I'm hoping to add to my bedroom soon. I like a lot of white as I just find that it is a really good base colour and is very bright and fresh. I also like different shades of greys and blues as I find them comforting and they seem to go well together. This seems to look quite cosy to me and as Autumn is fast approaching (although not as fast as I'd like) I seem to find myself looking at blankets and throws far too often.
I have needed a new desk for a while as I had a very small one which fit nothing on apart from my computer before upgrading to another one from ikea which is just looking a bit tired now so I think it's time for another upgrade! The one above from ikea is something that I first saw on Kate's blog and I loved the way that she painted the top white, which is something which I would also like to attempt. I really like the way the white and the wood go together, I have similar items like this in my room so I think this will fit in with my decor well.
As well as this I also have a wall by my bedroom door which is where my radiator is and above this is just a plain, white space so I think some kind of shelf would fit there well as it is quite a small area. I really like the interesting shaped Hexagon ones from Urban Outfitters however I'm wondering if I could DIY this myself as I would want more than one and thats about £50 just on shelves! I love homeware but it's just so expensive sometimes.
