Kid's Rooms: AKA Another Room In The House





Since I have recently finished a few children's rooms, I am in the mood to show you some amazingly beautiful little tyke spaces.  I think the perfect child's room is one that isn't ever too juvenile; kids go through phases, and what they are "into" changes rapidly.  Accents are easily changed, upholstery is not.  Please don't decorate for your child's interests, but absolutely consider their personality.  My daughter is outgoing, so I didn't give her a demure space.  I also believe that the parents are the ones that pay for everything, so why shouldn't the children's rooms match the feel of the rest of the house?  I don't mean to sound domineering on this point, but mom and dad work hard to create a beautiful home and the kids' rooms are a part of the home as a whole.

Here are my kids' rooms as they look now:
Gwenna's Room: 


Britton's Room:



Kids' rooms can, and should, be special and timeless.
Change out the accents and this room would do for a 3 year old or an 18 year old.

Admittedly this is very simple, but I love the suitcases as storage items in a small room, they almost act as furniture.

Talk about smart! This nursery is perfectly appropriate for a baby (I love the colorful modern art). Add a full size bed later and there ya go.

Love this. The colors are beautiful but the dark furniture keeps it from looking too fresh and feminine.
A sweet shared bedroom. Simple and feminine.
There is nothing overdone about this little space. It could easily be changed out later.
This is just so pretty.

Everything here is hitting the right notes for me. I want to steal the blankets on the end of the beds, as well as the beds!

I would love to get my son this bed.
I might have to feature this whole house sometime, but this little girl's room matches it.
Reminds me of the Secret Garden.
Longevity doesn't have to mean neutral.

Whimsical and pretty.

This is such a sophisticated baby room! I took my color cue for baby Jacqueline's room from this picture.

I say paint the crib a fun color! After all, it is only in the room for a few years anyway.


I could definitely go on and on....I will just have to do another post later:)

  2. You're very welcome, Lucia! I know I am loving the -no-limits- approach to kid's rooms these days. Thanks for your interest and comment!
