Covetable Kid Style

I don't know about everyone else, but every new house I've lived in, I've always had the urge to decorate my children's bedrooms first; subsequently these are the rooms that I love the most in my house and are the ones to get updated before the adult rooms are even touched. Something about children's decorating is just so free, unbound by design rules, and fun! I always have to remind myself that there is no reason that my whole house couldn't make me feel the way that my kid's spaces do. For me, the following kid's rooms have nailed it. Sophisticated but fun, I could live in these spaces myself...




Lots of colour, white backdrop, wallpaper, vintage finds, I could have fun in these rooms, could you? I feel these images represent how to live beautifully in a house full of toys and children without being to fussy about mess...if only I could figure out how to achieve this in my own house!

Indecision...

Ever find an inspiration photo for a room that is a complete game-changer, a turn in the opposite direction of where you were headed? And then you start to doubt every last design decision you have made up until that point? Yeah, this happens to me, all the time. Like this week, when I saw this sweet little room...I mean, it is perfect...
No, I am not going to paint all my floors white, although that is tempting. What I am referring to is the wallpaper; that soft teal green, the pattern, would be absolutely amazing in a little girls room. It got me thinking that although maybe I couldn't afford to run out and buy all new things for Holly's room, maybe a feature wall was exactly what she needed. So, I scoured the net for some inspiration...




Something to think about...
