Big Kid Room to Sleep & Play

My 5.5 year old son requested black walls, superheroes, and toys in his room. His favorite superhero is Ghost Rider and it took awhile to find art that featured him, but wasn’t too scary. I used his favorite colors throughout the room: black, blue, gray, and red. To maximize toy storage & play space I installed a closet system that accommodates all of his clothes & costumes as well as puzzles & boardgames.
 
The room came together with pieces from all over the place- some we’ve had for years. Bed/ headboard (Wayfair), chair & fan (Home Depot), art & blue pillow (Etsy), rug & red pillow (Home Goods), black bookcase & blue floor bin (Crate & Barrel), blue striped sheets (Walmart/ Gap), white duvet, white sconces, globe light, gray felt bins, nightstand, closet system (IKEA), curtains (West Elm), black sconce & air purifier (Target), smart piggy bank, door hook & black furniture legs (Amazon). 
Although there are a lot of things in his room, there is still room to add more clothes and toys into the existing storage especially since we regularly purge (donate/ sell/ toss) items that no longer suit his needs.

Joyful Colors in Baby Nursery

For the our second baby’s nursery we didn’t want to stick to a strict theme. Instead, I just wanted the room to be colorful and happy. Using the Rainbow Wallpaper from Project Nursery as my inspiration, I added pieces throughout the room to play off the colors.
To help tie in our crib, which is a hand me down from our first daughter, I tried to tie in the natural wood and gray via the name sign on the wall and mirror above the changing table. We also just had to pull in our handmade Star Wars mobile that we used for our first daughter!
Overall, we are thrilled with how it turned out and can’t wait to watch out little grow into the space.

A Modern “Nerd”sery

My husband and I had a great time designing this nerdy nursery for our soon-to-arrive little girl. With Star Wars, Doctor Who, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Trek, Ghostbusters, Firefly, Harry Potter, Wonder Woman, Robot, Dragon, Marvel, Monster, Dog, Lego, and Dinosaur details, we infused this room with as much of ourselves as we possibly could, while keeping it modern and classic.
We are so in love with this space and hopefully it will be a room that can grow with our little girl.
