Description
I wanted to create a fun and friendly space for my little ones to help usher in the new year.
Design Inspiration
Love Boho Chic, eclectic spaces! I also love the idea of DIY and tried to add as many textures and natural elements as possible. The curves and details of the dresser so french country!

Project Details
I wanted to create an eclectic space that captured my daughters super glam diva style, as well as my sons Batman/superhero/ any hero persona. I DIY'ed the mobile and hand-sewed the pattern of the birds from an old maternity top. I create two tassel garlands from tissue paper, and the area rug I purchased online at RugsUSA.com. The nightstand is thrifted and for the art work I downloaded free printables and framed them.
Rug: via RugsUsa
Dresser: Thrifted
Mobile: DIY and the pattern for the birds can be found here at Lavender's Blue Design
Tassel: DIY and sold here
Printables: For Chics Sake and MaybeMeJ
Favorite Items
Love everything DIY!! I'm just starting to create tassels and I love crafting so much! I am so exciting to try new color pallets!
Advice
With three small children under 5 I had to find time to craft. The best times for me were late night after they were sleeping and early morning. I had to space out my projects and try and small progress everyday. For example.. I spread my DIY mobile out across 3 weeks. Tested patterns, fabric, made a few sewing mistakes and started over a few times.

Love your dresser. Not a fan of big cartoon beddings though (and a mismatch printed rug). They make the space look cluttered and untidy.
