MFI tip

When we moved into our house a number of rooms presented us with a bit of a challenge. Most need at least a wall paper strip and bringing up to date - which is pretty straightforward, if time consuming.

But Elias's bedroom, whilst having floral carpet and wallpaper presented us with another problem, it's size. Our third bedroom is very 'compact', and has a strange deep shelf above where the stairs come up.

The solution... raise the bed. And to do that I saved up my Tesco clubcard vouchers and converted them to MFI clubcard vouchers. (sweet!) tomorrow we take delivery of a midi bed, tunnel canopy and drawers that cost us pennies, this weekend Elias moves up in the world. And hopefully he'll even get a little den under the bed too.

(I'll also be removing the floral carpet and replacing with something a lot more neutral)
