Terribly sorry about the quietness from me recently! I've spent the last few weeks trying to get the renovation finished and sort of neglected making videos during that time. Upside is that I'll have plenty of good transformation videos coming soon. Hope you are all doing well.
Just a suggestion. but it feels like the pic above the bed is wee bit too small for that space? Maybe you could get something bigger to go there and then have the lovely van gogh above the shelves instead? That would have the added benefit of you being able to look at it while you're in bed. Bedroom looks so cosy, you did a fantastic job. :)
The photo which inspired your choice of "River Bank in Springtime" would look cool framed side by side with the van Gogh just as you showed them here. If not enough resolution, a smaller version in the room would be heartwarming for you to see every day, as matching the two was very creative! 🎨
Your room is gorgeous. I'm with you, I don't like things hanging over my bed, I can't even do a painting. I hung a quilt on the wall and if it falls I will just be warmer, not blinded.
Love your use of subtle lighting throughout your gorgeous bedroom. People underestimate how important soft lighting can be in creating a cosy atmosphere. There's nothing worse than just having a bright overhead light in a bedroom. You did well George, it looks fabulous.
Love that one of your mum’s old students was involved in this video. I used to teach and thoroughly enjoy catching up with past students in adult life. Great to see their success
Recommend you make sure the floor mirror has a safety strap or is attached in some way to the wall so your cats can’t knock it over playing or trying to crawl behind it. The window cushion is rad!
Good to see you George. You turned this room into such a warm, inviting space. Love the color you chose & all the subtle lighting features. My favorite items were the bedside tables, to me they are perfection. Another successful transformation. 🐈🐈
Before I even start watching this video, may I say. Welcome Back, George (Patchy) Dunnett!! We’ve missed you! And all your rehabs are just stunning! AND VERY COZY!! ❤❤❤
Nice job! Since you were concerned about placing the shelves above the bed, keep in mind that during an earthquake, ( although you probably never have them in Scotland) the art could “jump” off the wall and hit you on the head too. So the best way to secure it is to add a couple of screws on the wall then secure it with a wire that goes through its own hanging wire. This prevents the art from falling all the way if it’s jolted off the wall. There may be other ways to do it but in essence it’s best to secure it.
Hey George 👋, that was quite a room transformation! Curtains always give rooms 🙄 that extra special touch that you are looking for to feel cozy 😀. The color of paint 🎨 you chose for the room gives it a warm ambiance that reflects your sense of fashion. The built-in shelves always come in so handy and complimentary. I'm so certain you will absolutely 💯 cherish the transformation of your bedroom ✨️!🎉❤😊
The light behind the mirror looks cool, but if the mirror was flush against the wall, it might be helpful while standing in front of the wardrobe choosing a tie.
I like how he went out of his way to soundproof his room to ensure no noise disturbs his neighbours downstairs. That is one way to let us know you're a player George. 🤣 The room looks amazing and achieves the cosiness you wanted. Nice one.
I am with you about shelves above the bed. Many years ago when I was a student I lived in a furnished flat with shelves above the bed, which not surprisingly I filled with books. One night I was awakened by falling books. Luckily I was able to stop the shelves themselves from falling on top of me. It could have ended very badly;-))
We had some cupboards fall off a wall at work once. I can’t tell you where I work because I’m not allowed to divulge that much detail ….🚫 (one of the big universities is as close as I’ll say) but it would have been hundreds of thousands of pounds of damage if they’d landed on what they were hanging over. Unbelievably we were in the room and one of my colleagues CAUGHT THEM!🤯. Not paid enough. Still can’t believe that happened.
As a visual merchandiser I would say you are good at styling. I was taught more about groupings however it's nice how you spread peices out and show balance. And you understand colour Palettes too. 👏good job mate! 😊 Only thing that worried me is that I have a personal bias of fengshui. Seeing the bedhead on the side of the doorway is jarring to me. Energy wise I believe the bedhead should be directly or diagonally in opposition to the door and the mirror to be in a position to allow energy to bounce off and through:- from the door to the window. But that's just as personal preference. All good mate 👍🏼 😊
Love the light behind the mirror. You should make the top shelf of the lower case Jr.’s shelf, he seemed to like it, put a thin soft bed and some toys for him on it.
Beautiful room. Love the cozy simplicity. "Cozy minimalism" is a phrase I came across during some of my own decorating and renovations and it was an Aha Moment for me. I'm not a fan of cold minimalism, but the warm cozy version is achievable and looks so very nice! Great job!
. ... 😻 I really appreciate your sharing your process. It helps to have information that could prevent potentially costly design mistakes. I'm a big fan of your colour scheme, and the light behind the mirror adds a lovely visual effect. I would prefer a larger print above the bed, or alternatively, position a couple of smaller ones to "bookend" the larger print. Beautiful room, George ! !
It is really cozy and lovely and beautifully put together. Love the colour scheme and the window seat.. I personally would have chosen a diferent place for the mirror (although the idea of a back light is great). I just feel uncomfortable seeing myself in miror when I am lying to sleep, especially first thing in the morning. :D
Good designer choice. Beautiful room and use of space with a soothing paint color. Very good workmanship from your friend. Mom's nice window seat for the cats. lol Thank you for the video. Have a wonderful week.
Very cozy bedroom, soothing colors. I like the window seat and built in book shelf, nice use of the space. I love the stone walls, but it sure would be impossible to heat the cottage without the added insulation, by leave them exposed. Suggestion - Not good Feng Shui to have mirrors in bedrooms - your reflection while sleeping should not be in the mirror - it's believed to disrupt sleep by reflecting too much energy back at you, potentially causing restlessness and negative thoughts while trying to sleep; bedroom mirror, make sure it reflects pleasant views like a plant or artwork instead of the bed. You can cover the mirror at night to minimize the reflection while sleeping. OMG - absolutely love the little ceramic cat - adorable!
Junior adds so much to the coziness!! You succeeded masterfully achieving a truly cozy bedroom!! ((May I suggest a reading lamp for those who read in bed, your sweet lower lamps won’t work so well for that))
As far as wall hangings, less is more, according to my spouse. ( we’re not living in a dang art gallery after all! ) I really like the lights in back of the mirror and the shelves. Great idea.
The nuance that you put in choosing this artwork 🥺 It does look like the photo! And also the green candle from H&M smells amazing) Great job with cozying the room
Hi George, Junior , and Tigger .. "The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away..." That was beautiful. I giggled a bit !!! The bedroom is beautiful. I liked the final render and the design you created. I did the same thing for my bedroom, but mine is a dark night blue, with black furnishings. I have a black book case in one corner with a "few" books, and trinkets from travels and from friends who travel. I am going to use your "Sticky lights" in my book case, I quite like those. I need to look them up now !!! I pondered the shelf above the bed too, but nixed it for fear of the same Giveth and Taketh thought !! I haven't figured out my "above the bed" decor just yet. I have a Monet painting that I bought years ago, but need to get it reframed. A very enjoyable video. I think you should join fiver and make your own designs now !!! hmmmm....
As a swede I like scandinavian design but if I were living in Scotland I would incorporate more local cozyness if that makes sense! Still a beautiful room. The important thing is that you like it. Thank you for your channel, from a faithful subscriber.
You've done a wonderful job, with Junior providing guidance I'm sure. The overall vibe is very cozy and relaxing. I also love that the bed is lower and not super high.
Hi George. I really like Omar's bedroom design, but it could be a bit warmer. John's design is my favorite. I love the window seat, and the oversized bedding. Incredible job on the room. I love the little ceramic cat. You make me want to redo my bedroom, although it is light and airy. You did a great job picking out the furniture and your mom's window seat is super nice. Enjoy everything! 😊🫶
Terribly sorry about the quietness from me recently! I've spent the last few weeks trying to get the renovation finished and sort of neglected making videos during that time. Upside is that I'll have plenty of good transformation videos coming soon. Hope you are all doing well.
No worries at all, please create and upload without pressure. ❤️

Where’s your new kitten?
Shoutout to your mom for that lovely window seat.
As a reader, I’ve always wanted one of those spaces to just sit and chill out.
She's a talented lady
Me too, I'd never move from it if I had one!
Definitely the best part.
@@Patchy Any chance she'll be featured in a future video showing us how it's done? I would love to learn how to make an upholstered seat cushion.
@@jlastname2189 Me too! 🙏💜
If you put a live laugh love up I'll fly over to Scotland and rip it down myself 😂
Hahaha! Same thought.
LOL!! 😂😂

Yes agree - as per the 3rd render, where the pic is just shy of being the width of the bed.
I Agree.The picture should be about 6 to 8 inches above the headboard. And larger or Ann another complementary piece.
The photo which inspired your choice of "River Bank in Springtime" would look cool framed side by side with the van Gogh just as you showed them here. If not enough resolution, a smaller version in the room would be heartwarming for you to see every day, as matching the two was very creative! 🎨
@@kathywong7661 I agree!
Yes, a little too small and a little too high up!
Stuart is definitely the MVP and what a helpful lad he is.
Your room is gorgeous. I'm with you, I don't like things hanging over my bed, I can't even do a painting. I hung a quilt on the wall and if it falls I will just be warmer, not blinded.
This is what I did, too!
Oh my gosh, your Mum is so lovely and talented! The tiny ceramic cat and the window seat. Please let her know your viewers appreciate her ❤
Oh man! That’s stunning how much the color and furnishing transformed that room. Beautiful George.
Thanks Jim! Pleased with how it turned out so far. :)
Good see you again❤

Coziness unlocked.

Yep! Seen plenty on TikTok of mirror toppling over!
Huzzah! A new Patchy video, perfect for a cozy Saturday. Thank you George 🎉

Thanks Bonnie! Glad you liked how it turned out. :)
Great goal, cozyness calms the mind and heart. Cats makes the biggest difference! Cat= Instant cozyness❤😍🥰
It does and they do haha!
Your new bedroom looks terrific! Very cozy looking. Mission accomplished! Junior does a great job of cozying up the space by just being in it!
Oh my, what a beautiful, calm, warm, and cosy bedroom. Perfect colour choices and blending, tasteful details, everything, it's really lovely. 🤗👍
Before I even start watching this video, may I say. Welcome Back, George (Patchy) Dunnett!! We’ve missed you! And all your rehabs are just stunning! AND VERY COZY!! ❤❤❤
LOVE your cat in the finished room, checking out the bed & shelves 😺
Looks good! I think tapestries on walls look cozy, if you want another idea instead of a traditional picture.
11:15-11:33 He's back!!!!....😍😍...Yes! Give Stewart *His Props* 😂😂

Your cat has a permanent 'wtf's going on' look on its face 😽
George, your bedroom looks so cosy. You've done a great job as usual.
Love how you throw in little zinger double entendres when commenting. Keep up the great work!!!
Mirror facing the bed... 'A man of culture' I see 🤣- Missed your videos dude.
Haha naw naw nothing like that!! Just felt it kinda 'added' something to both of those walls by having it propped up by both.
@@Patchy Yeah yeah, don’t hide it George 🤭
The light behind the mirror looks cool, but if the mirror was flush against the wall, it might be helpful while standing in front of the wardrobe choosing a tie.
The room looks amazing!
Looks gorgeous and so cozy! Amazing transformation 😊 That window seat looks like a purrrrrfect spot for cats 😺🕊
Hey George another great video❤
Glad to see that Junior found a spot!
Oh George, it’s just gorgeous !! In every way. So relaxing and cosy. I’m really quite envious !! ❤

You could kick it up a notch with local original artwork - another suggestion
That would be nice! I'll need to keep an eye out.
Love the light behind the mirror. You should make the top shelf of the lower case Jr.’s shelf, he seemed to like it, put a thin soft bed and some toys for him on it.
7:12 Wow, what a great job! Well done, Mum!

Cheers Duncan! Haha I actually do. I know not everyone can say that though. Very blessed.
Looks great! Love the Van Gogh
Missed you George❤
It looks beautiful Patchy! Happy to see Junior helping out. It's good to have another pair of eyes on what you're doing.

Love listening to your thought process for decorating! Glad you’re back with more videos🥰
What a simple trick for cosy that super wide bedding is! Never occurred to me, but it works beautifully
Excellent design job! And the little cubbies that were used to create shelves and storage, really make the spaces unique and interesting.
Nice job! A suggestion for what to hang next to that print would be an enlargement of the photo that inspired you to choose it.
Good designer choice. Beautiful room and use of space with a soothing paint color. Very good workmanship from your friend. Mom's nice window seat for the cats. lol
Thank you for the video. Have a wonderful week.
Brilliant look!

Beautiful! Each of the contributing designers had something valuable to add to the final design. Very impressive.
Yes, we've missed you! Wonderful job on the bedroom! looks great
I love H&M Home as well. From soft furnishings to crockery and beyond.
The nuance that you put in choosing this artwork 🥺 It does look like the photo! And also the green candle from H&M smells amazing) Great job with cozying the room
Happy New Year 🎉
Also, welcome back and so excited to hear about the updates (hopefully, no accidental electrical leaks)
Haha no I'm 100% retired from doing anything with electricity

Very cozy and comfortable. You did a great job with your decorating.😊
Well worth the wait, George!🤩
Room turned out like a nice cosy retreat, love it. You had me in stitches when you said " Fill with random shite " such a Scottish thing to say 😂
Great design, George! You nailed cozy! 😊
You've done a wonderful job, with Junior providing guidance I'm sure. The overall vibe is very cozy and relaxing. I also love that the bed is lower and not super high.
Fantastic. So cozy and inviting.
It turned out great George! I love the window seat! Nicely done❤
I kid you NOT I was lying in bed this morning and thinking, "I need to make my bedroom more cozy." and here we are ! Thank you for reading my mind
Looks nice, really nice. The shelving in the fireplace area looks fabulous. I prefer my bedroom to be really dark.
Love the results...such a beautiful little place ... thanks for sharing!!
Thanks Marilyn!
welcome back! looking good, looking forward to seeing the next batch of transformations videos!
Your channel is often the little corner of peace I need in this chaotic world. I also hope you don't feel obligated to make cozy videos.
George, the bedroom is beautiful! Well done. Your "best present of the year" is the crowning piece of nonsense in this cosy room 😂
Lovely to see you again! That bedroom is cozy as can be. It's really beautiful, so job very well done.
It looks really good. The warm colors are very nice and the furniture you and everything
else you have in there creates a very comfortable room.
Jeff
Bravo! Great job! Serene and cozy.
Beautiful room !❤
Junior makes the room cozy. :)
Really enjoyed this episode, George. Thanks 😊
