Decorating for little people

It's been a while since I have posted anything on children's spaces. I think they're the most fun room of all because there are so many cute things around and little people keep growing which gives you the excuse to keep re-decorating, perrrrfect! One of my absolutely favourite Swedish online shops is Mokkasin. I love their customisable letters, for writing cute messages on the wall, ooo and check out the confetti. This shop is utterly gorgeous!








See you there!

Have a great 'lilla lördag'!

Tuesday DIY project: pretty children's tent

Seeing as I am in child bedroom mode today....the time has come when turning the entire sitting room into a 'camp' is just no longer viable - the tidying up! GRRR. but when I looked in the shops nothing seemed to fit. Then, today via wonderful blog Cakies I spied this idea (below) and think i've found the perfect solution. hello DIY project. hello pretty fabric.goodbye sofa camp. HURRAH!

To find out how to make a fantastically cool A-Frame Tent follow the instructions over at Cakie here. Then at the end of the day you can prop it against the children's bedroom wall for a fun and pretty screen. PERFECTIMO!

Oh and if you get around to making one, don't forget to share it with us. I promise to share mine!!

Delightful children's rooms with great storage ideas

Morning! There's nothing like a lovely children's room to brighten up the day. My little girls are only teeny (3 and 1!) and share a room (i thought it would be lovely for them to natter away after the lights have gone out). The problem is they've so many 'things'!! And we who love interior design know that lots of little things don't always make for a pretty room.  but these delightful rooms show that there are ways to store and be practical and most importantly pretty!!!

I do love me a bit of vintage children's room. Only one pic here today, but there's lots of wonderful inspiration out there. For example, check out this post at wonderful blog the boo and the boy. I believe that no home is complete without at least one item older than yourself, what do you reckon?

Wonderful wall displays for Children's bedrooms

This afternoon I am going to announce the winner from the Picky Pic children's picture competition I held in collaboration with the wonderful, creative girls at Picky Pic. So don't forget to pop back later to see if you are the lucky winner! In the meantime, I looooove the clever wall displays in these lovely children's bedrooms.

I love the use of the crates, string and clothes pegs and wired garden planters to display children's treasured items. It just goes to show that you don't need to spend a lot to create a beautiful room, just imagination and time. So lovely don't you think?  See you this s'avo!

Pops of green in a Skåne home

Morning all! My week's been brightened up by these pics of a turn of the century house in Landskrona, right here in Skåne, Sweden. I love the pops of green and the birdy print in the bedroom. Thank you Hus o Hem!

The reading lamp is Arne Jacobsen. The lovely brown throw and ceramic bowl are from one of my favourite shops here in Skåne - Udda Tina.


The lovely bright tins used to store toys are from the carnival Lundakarnevalen  

The chest of drawers was found in the basement and painted grass green

I love the green in the children's bedroom. According to GharExpert  green adds freshness, peace and increases brain power. That's me sold! You?! For more images visit Swedish magazine Hus o Hem.

Oh my darling Clementine

I love this soft, calm nursery, brightened up with a shock of colour using wonderful prints by Darling Clementine....

Picture: The bedroom was created by the clever blogger at Supersnella. Buy these lovely retro style prints at Darling Clementine




So guys, POETS (Push-of-early-tomorrow's-saturday) day don't forget!

Colour pop for your poppits

Happy Friday campers! We're nearly there! Woo hoo! In case you need some inspiration for the weekend - how about decorating your little angels room with brightly coloured furniture, wall paper / wall stickers and prints. I'm taking my inspiration from these rooms....


Picture: Family Living. Get the Sundvik table from IKEA and choose a lovely fabric to cover. I painted the surface of my little girls' table with black board paint so they can draw on it until their hearts content! IKEA also sell a shelf like this. Find similar wall stickers like the tree on the door at Inke.



Picture: Family Living. All little ones love their dolls to sleep in style - like in this Juno dolls cot which you can buy at House of Hedda , I love how it matches the bed! Try colourful fabric for your angels wall from IKEA and Inke for wall stickers.



Picture: IKEA Family Live. IKEA sells children's kitchen units, this play food and tea set. If only our angels could actually make us supper too?!


Mountains for your minnies

Just because you look out over cityscapes every morning it doesn't mean you can't bring a touch of nature to your little ones room!  Check out this inspired creation from Family Living where the owner has moved mountains to create a Lapland feel....

 Get the Mountain Morning wallpaper from Uppsala Fototapet. The little sleeping cove can be made from wood panels painted in Flugger's S-0500. Buy Sultan mattresses etc. from IKEA. The pink coloured sheet is from H&M home.

All aboard the mountain express! If you want to go all out..... buy the Mountain Morning WG 211 wallpaper from Uppsala Fototapet (as before).  This is a real Silver birch tree - if they're in abundance in your area and you're allowed, put on that tartan lumber-jack shirt....Source a vintage Kovak cable car on e-bay.

You can find more information on this mountain themed children's bedroom here.

It looks great fun, but I'm not sure if I'd dare. Would you?!
