As I already mentioned, I am very busy with my bedroom makeover. Now when the walls are painted and the main dirty work is done, it is time for my favourite part – decorating itself.

Without being entitled to throw away this “beauty” from my balcony, I am now busy thinking over alternative solution for a bedhead. Luckily the current one can be easily unscrewed and I will hide it in the farthest corner of our apartment.  Now, what to place instead?
