We threw a birthday party for our three-year-old boy/girl twins at our home in June. We had food and drinks inside and a huge “castle” made out of cardboard boxes outside for the kids. The party was very casual and unstructured; people went in and out as they pleased, we opened presents at one point and then let all of the kids play with all of the toys, and we had a bunch of cupcakes (that people ate whenever they wanted) instead of a formal cake.
We wanted a colorful, whimsical space with both modern and vintage pieces, clean lines as well as handmade elements. We painted the walls a dark navy blue to make the colors pop and to set off the warm rustic elements. In order for the design to last we refrained from making the room too “babyish”. We love the juxtaposition of the modern elements against the rustic and vintage pieces.
We turned a John Deere room in our basement into a bright and cheerful playroom inspired by the colors in Dr. Seuss’s “Oh The Places You’ll Go.” This room had to be done quickly and on a tight budget, and be transitional for kids from newborn to elementary-age.
