Bonjour, I don't like empty walls and in that room there were two big empty walls. So I long thought about what to do. As this is a milliner's room, it has to be simple though I liked the idea of the alcove for the bed. So I opened a large "verriere" on the right side, like an "atelier d'artiste" where artists could use the sun light to paint and save money. If you look up when you visit Paris, you'll see lot of them. These rooms have become expensive lofts.
I used the same technique as in the laundry room to do the window with tapes and I sprayed the window in grey. It only took me 30 minutes to do it.
I need to find a small chest of drawers to put on the left, for the tenant to keep her clothes, though there must be storage in the small cabinet de toilette on the right. Now I have to do the curtains for the bed and I don't like it. My curtains are always a disaster!....


Great progress! I was about to tell you that the idea of a verrriere (as you suggested in your comment to mine) was an excellent idea, and... here it is in your room. I love seeing them in Paris. I'm glad with the choice of wallpaper, I can't wait to see it in the room. Sorry I can't give you with the printing of this wallpaper, I only manage to do basic things with my computer.
