University #1 Room Wish List

Friday, July 05, 2013 Holly 6 Comments

After reading 'The Londoner's' amazing blog post on University, I was inspired to start a series of blog posts about my own preparations for leaving home and becoming a fresher. If you haven't seen or heard of her, see's an amazing writer, with photography you will pine after! I've left a link to her post below. Although, make sure you leave at least an hour of your time before clicking it, I guarantee you will find yourself drooling over page after page of her blog. You have been warned!
The Londoner: University

Room Wish List



 
Candle Holder (Dunelm Mill)
I have seen this a couple of times in-store and have always been in two minds about buying it. By all means, I love it... I could just imagine myself burning different scented candles whilst curled up on my bed reading a magazine. But the only problem is, are you allowed to burn candles in your uni room?! (fire hazards and all that) If you know, Please comment!
 
Free Standing Shabby Chic Mirror (couldn't find on any sites, so had to Google!)

Something cream and shabby chic to go in my room, what a surprise (not) ... I think a mirror like this would come in so handy, otherwise how would you check you're outfits look alright?!
 
Bird Cage Table Lamp (Dunelm Mill)
So so so pretty! I couldn't resist this when I saw it, so picked it up immediately. It's such a cute twist on your average lamp and doubles as an ornament too!
 
Bed Cover (Ikea)
This cover really reminds me of a design I have seen before in Laura Ashley- almost identical! I love the oriental images, I think it makes the cover look more high-end and intriguing. I can't wait to drag an unwilling member of my family to Ikea with me so I can buy it!
 
Desk Tidy (Cath Kidston)
I can never fault Cath Kidston's designs, in whatever form they come in. Although, a favourite of mine will always be her iconic floral prints. This desk tidy is really cute, I can just imagine stacking my folders and pens in there now!
 
Pillow (Laura Ashley)
If you have ever seen my room, in particular my bed, you will know that I am in desperate need of a trip to cushion hoarders anonymous. I just cant help buying them, they're the prime example of the 'beautiful unnecessary', at least half of my bed is adorned with decorative cushions! But anyway, I didn't want to show you a ridiculous amount of cushions so I just picked this one! Bright, pretty and similarly oriental to the cover, perfect. 
 
Glass Jar (Ebay)
Finally, one of my faithful glass jars. I don't want to talk about them too much about it as I've written about them in a post, but I couldn't recommend them enough. I'm planning on storing my cotton pads in mine as usual. So cheap and chic!


 
 
Have you picked up anything yet for uni, if so, what? Do you have any recommendations for me? Any comment is appreciated!
