hugging the walls

after painting more floor at the house we are selling i headed to the house i am moving into. with a whole house to myself you may think i will want to spreed out but am more inclined to squeeze into tight space. this is the alcove which will home my bed which folds in to a chair, and now i am trying to work out how much bedroom i can fit round it

the white paint has started going up on the walls of my bedroom and i hate it.but it not for me i have a whole new house i will be decorating for myself sooner or later
