I’ve recently noticed that my bedroom is beginning to look a little old and worn, so I’ve been thinking about updating it with some nice new items. As always, I’ve spent hours and hours searching online and putting together a wishlist of items I’d really like in my two favourite colours – grey and white. And today, I thought I’d share it with you guys. I hope you like the things I’ve picked out.
First of all, I’d love to buy a new bed. And this grey Chelmsford Fabric Double Bed from Very is right up my street! It has a beautifully curved footboard, and a headboard with deep button detailing. The bed also has solid oak legs that give it a beautiful, traditional feel.
I think this particular bed screams absolute luxury, but it’s actually really affordable at just £489. I can most definitely see myself settling down in it with a good book before bed. It would be pure bliss!
Next up, I have my beady little eye on this stunning Wizard Cats Duvet Cover Set from George at ASDA. Just how cute is it?! The duvet is plain white and has little cats dressed as wizards, moons, and stars printed all over it in shades of black and grey. I think it’s quite Harry Potter-esque, and there’s something truly magical about it. I’d love to snuggle down in it for bed each night.
The set comes in 3 different sizes, and the double set that I’d want is only £12. Twelve. Pounds! I’m sure you’ll agree that that’s an absolute bargain. I love it and might actually head on over to the ASDA website and order myself a set in a sec as I can see this selling out super fast.
As we’re heading into the cooler, Autumn months now, I’m looking at treating myself to a nice new throw to pull over me when I’m feeling chilly at night. I absolutely love this chunky knitted one I came across on the Very website. It’s in a lovely charcoal shade of grey and looks like it would be sure to keep me nice and toasty warm as the nights start to draw in.
Sumptuous Sheepskin Double Rug in Grey
If there’s one thing I’ve been wanting in my bedroom for a long time now, it has to be a lovely, super soft rug, as I hate it when I get out of bed first thing in a morning and find myself stepping onto a cold, hard floor. Brr! The first place I looked for a rug was one of my all-time favourite homeware sites – Cox & Cox, as I knew they would be sure to have something I liked in stock.
And I wasn’t wrong! Cox & Cox actually have loads of gorgeous rugs, so it was ridiculously difficult to make a decision on which one I liked best. But I eventually settled on this stunning sumptuous sheepskin double rug in an exquisite smokey grey colour to compliment the bed I talked about earlier. Isn’t it gorgeous? It’s made of 100% natural long-haired sheepskin and makes the perfect decorative item for the bedroom. I just love it!
Recently, I’ve been updating my Autumn wardrobe, and I’d really love somewhere nice and new to keep all of the lovely new bits and pieces I’ve picked up. And I think this Lily Manor Lemaire Wardrobe from Wayfair fits the bill perfectly. It comes in a beautiful antique white shade, has two doors and stands on four legs.
Unlike a lot of my friends, I don’t have tons of clothes, so I think this wardrobe would be the perfect size for me. And I like that it has a shelf at the top where I could keep my shoes or bedding. I think it would make a really pretty addition to my updated bedroom.
Of course, if I’m wanting to show off my nice new Autumn wardrobe, then I’m going to need to make sure I’m nicely put together each morning. And what better way to ensure this than by getting dressed in front of a beautiful full-length mirror like this one from Cox & Cox?
Carved from paulownia wood with a rustic hand painted finish, this large grey full-length mirror has hooks on the reverse side so it can be hung up on the wall. Alternatively, it can be propped up as shown in the photograph. I think the mirror is absolutely stunning, and although it’s quite pricey at £225, I can see it being worth every single penny as it would go nicely with all the other items I’ve added to my bedroom wishlist.
Florence Chandelier in Antique Grey
At the moment I have a nasty, cheap-looking light shade in my bedroom, and I really want to replace it with something more sophisticated like this Florence Chandelier in Antique Grey from Cox & Cox. The chandelier is made from a lightweight metal with a distressed painted finish, clear bead droplet detailing, and 5 stems for candle bulbs. It would be sure to add a touch of elegance to my bedroom, and I think it would look absolutely stunning with the bed I spoke about earlier.
Wooden Venetian Blinds in White
And last but not least, I think it’s about time I changed the blinds in my bedroom too, as Oscar has messed about with the ones I have hung in there and, quite frankly, they look terrible! I’d really like to replace the ones I have with some white wooden Venetian ones, as I think they’d look fab with the other bits and pieces I’ve talked about today. And I love Venetian Blinds as they’re super easy to clean compared to some of the other blinds on the market.
And there you have it – my current bedroom wishlist. I hope you guys enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed putting it together. And if you’re thinking of doing up your own bedroom soon, I hope I’ve given you some inspiration for new places to shop as well.
Would you like to have any of these items in your bedroom?
Or do you have some other recommendations for me that you think I might like?

Every time we visit a furniture shop, my wife always looks for the chandeliers. For her, having a chandelier is the only thing she has set her mind on to have the bedroom in the way she totally wants it.
All of these are great and I sure my wife would like them too.
Thanks for Sharing

Squeee and how cute are those cat sheet? I want to share them with a friend now who loves kitties to the max. I love your clean silver style, too. Santa needs to see this 😉
Love this look! I definitely need an update.
I really want a big, standing mirror in our bedroom. We have an upholstered headboard and just love it. So comfy!

I love that bed! I’ve been shopping around trying to find one I like and haven’t until now. It’s gorgeous!
Wow Chelmsford Fabric Double Bed, the chandelier and the dresser really look nice. Love the color platte too. Very subtle and goes with almost any color too. Very nice taste you have for decor =)
I love all of the calming gray cors, perfect for resting and relaxing! I have a bed similar to this one you showed and I love it! It is a great headboard to read leaning up against. Cozy, comfortable but stylish!
My 9-year-old is desperate for her own room. That means repainting a few bedrooms. But truth is, my room needs some love also. Your wishlist is making me reconsider which room I’ll start with.
I love your taste, it’s a great mix of items. I painted my walls deep blue and I lean towards gray and cream for my furniture and decorations, a lot of your picks would fit in my room. Especially those car sheets!
I would love a chandelier for my entryway. The hanging light we have is so outdated and the colors are just blah. This one would be pretty

Beautiful choices! I love this shade because it makes the room seem bigger and you can add any colour to accent. I hope you get this bedroom soon. I am also seeking a new bedroom. I already have a beautiful gray hand loomed rug with white accents that was in the sitting room. But I’m thinking to put it in the bedroom. 🙂

I’ve always wanted to do a chandelier in my bedroom – but always thought it would look to posh, but I love the way it’s grouped here. It looks stylish but also fitting for the room style. We’re going to rip out the carpet in our bedroom and put in an area rug instead….I think it will look better.
I like that bed you picked out. I would like a bed like that too. And how cute are those wizard cats?!

Ooh, I do like that knit throw. Charcoal is such a nice color. The shades you picked in general are really pretty!
I would love to renovate our bedroom like this! I am feeling the same about our master bedroom and it makes me sad!
I really need to spruce up my room as well! I love all the things you picked out especially that chunky blanket. I have one of those and it’s perfect for cold days!

I love the bed and wardrobe. That rug is so gorgeous too, it will be so cosy to step on first thing in a morning. My colour scheme is currently grey and white with little bits of pink so everything would go in my room.
