Colourful DIY & Vintage Adventure Boy Room

As we are lucky enough to have a playroom elsewhere in the house, our boys’ bedrooms (see also Jesse’s Rustic Vintage DIY Boy Nursery) were intended to be spaces where they can enjoy some quiet time: reading, dressing, sleeping, hanging out. That said, we used to have a rug in here, but the floor has become such a transformative space for play and imagination that the rug now lives beneath a tepee in the playroom and the floor is bare so that it can be covered in whatever ‘worlds’ our children decide to make.

Rustic Chic Nursery (Gender Neutral)

Gender neutral nursery for baby.  It was a real struggle at first trying to find a color scheme/design plan suitable for either a boy or a girl.   Finally I found some inspiration in an old bin of curtains I had lying around and ran with it.  Vintage pieces of furniture were reworked and I did a lot of recycling to get exactly what I envisioned… without spending a lot of money!
