INSPIRATION FOR DECORATING YOUR CHILD’S BEDROOM

2 tips to follow and 2 questions to ask that will guide you during the decorating process of your child’s room (or any other room for that matter):

We’ve read an interesting interview with interior stylist for children, Jacinda Malloy from Hide & Sleep where she was sharing some of her top tips for decorating children’s bedrooms.

Our favorite tip is N. 5 – Don’t follow trends

Jacinda Malloy tells that she always ask her clients to choose what they love. “If you fill a room with lots of things that you love how can you not love the room” – she says.

“With social media, facebook, instagram, twitter etc, it’s hard not to be overwhelmed with choice. Often we loose touch with our own style and are easily influenced.”

2 questions that Jacinda Malloy always asks herself when she is making a decision:

  1. Do I love it?
  2. Do I think I will love it in a couple of years’ time?

If the answer is YES then you buy it, if not then you don’t. it’s that simple.

And another of her tips that really resonates with us is: Look at your budget and spend money on quality pieces

Jacinda suggests looking for a quality bed that will last and look great for many years and see it as an important investment. But you can get creative and team it up with less expensive furniture:

Use a chair or stack a large pile of books and use it as a side table to put a lamp on them and use those as a side table.

You can read the whole interview here.

The inspirational board, developed by Valentina Carla Caiazzo from the blog a Misura di bimbo (means Suitable for baby on Italian), is a good suggestion of stylish quality items that will last for many years. Quality is also a question of if the products can be used and are easy to care.

Stampa

 

Soon you’ll have to attend a baby shower and help your friend – the new mom to be – eat cake, open presents and enjoy this day. And you need just the right present for this occasion.

Baby showers are a wonderful way for the new mom to acquire all the things that baby needs.
Especially for new moms who most likely need to start from scratch with all baby-related products. The list of essentials is long but will always include a blanket.

Or perhaps you need a beautiful present for any baby celebration ceremony. 

Make you own exquisite gift basket that will stand out from the standard gift packages and at the same time you make sure that the products you give are beautiful, safe and easy to care.

Here is a suggestion for a romantic mom and her baby:

  1. The animal print shop www.theanimalprintshop.com 
  2. Fabulous Goose Repeated Bambi baby blanket 75×100 cm light grey / white, design by Meyer-Lavigne
  3. Steiff http://www.steiff.com/en/cuddly-animals/cuddly-animals-for-babys/

These 3 products together are just perfect for that one of a kind newborn gift basket with romantic charm and subtle colors.

We really do recommend Steiff flush toys because of their high quality and because it’s very clean products (read more here).

This inspirational board is amazing – we really like the combination of grey and orange. 

But what we also like is that this board shows how our small Repeated bambi blanket can easily transition and be a part of the interior as your child grows – and still be that security blanket that calm and comfort.

And of cause our Bambi blanket comes in big size 120×150 cm to match a junior bed.
