Guide 3 ... draw out the outline of your bedroom

bedroom planner Draw up a simple outline off the room

Now ... we want you to hold this important thought in your head
Imagine your room is a big empty box, and your new wardrobes are smaller empty boxes.
The idea being that you are going to fit these smaller boxes into the bigger one - child's play eh!.
The only problem is the smaller boxes are going to be perfectly square, and stand perfectly upright and your bigger box (the room) is anything but square and upright

Mark on to your sketch the position of any obstacles to your design, such as:

Doors, Light Switches, Windows, Curtain track/poles, Radiators, Chimney Breast, Sloping Ceilings, Picture Rails etc.

Give the walls a number - and that's your basic outline done.

The next step will show how to measure the width of the walls correctly.
