Sweet & Sunny Art Room for Kids

Get ready to be inspired as I take you through the incredible transformation of an underutilized nook on the main floor into the coziest art room for my clients and their kids, ages 5 and 3.
There’s something so inviting about the whole vibe – it’s impossible not to get your creative juices flowing!

Boys Shared Bedroom

When we got pregnant with our last baby, we decided to put the boys in our large bedroom above the garage. It was not in the best shape, and we did what we could to make it nice for them. It was cute in the end, but admittedly a rush job due to the baby on the way. A few months after our last was born, we decided to give the room the attention it deserved.
We gave the room all new carpet, some gorgeous striped wallpaper and reused as much as we could for furniture/decor to keep cost down. I was inspired by themes like Peter Pan, and vintage styles mixed with modern for the room. I love adding little touches from small artists and shops to give the room character!

Dream, Explore, Discover

As the founder and interior decorator at Charm Custom Interiors, it was so rewarding to complete this special project for my son’s baby nursery.💙🌟Theme: ”Dream, Explore, Discover”🌟🧑🏾‍🚀👨🏾‍✈️🌙🪐🌎🚀
I decided to choose a color pallete and theme that wasn’t too specific so my son can mature and evolve with the space.  I used various shades of blue, beige, and white while incorporating textures like wood, woven textile, leather, and gold metallic accents. There’s a combination of images like the dreamy blue sky, airplanes, astronaut, and exploration which provide the playful, imaginative element.  I hope my son is inspired to reach for the stars and know his options are limitless.🌟🌎🚀💙 Instead of hiring vendors to complete the install, my husband and I did everything ourselves.  We painted the walls & ceiling, hung wallpaper, hung curtains, replaced the light fixture, assembled furniture, and installed the decor finishing touches.
When thinking of a starting point for designing your space, think about what people, place, hobbies, etc. inspire you.  What feelings and emotions do you want your space to bring to its occupants? Once you find a source of inspiration, build around it.  I approach each project with a Pinterest board, curated mood board, color pallete, room measurements, room layout, and 3D design.

Coastal Organic Toddler Boy Room

Big boy room upgrade! We decided to go with a fun bold pineapple print to match our beautiful blue linen bedding. I chose a natural finish bed, and a neutral carpet with to pair with the eye-catching wallpaper. This keeps it fun, but will also work with him as he grows! We tried to incorporate other textures like natural wood bookshelves, leather floor poufs and white textured linen black out curtains to keep an organic minimalist feel.

Enchanted Garden

Due to the circumstances I was not able to see the new home in person before putting an offer in, but luckily, being in this field, I quickly visualized it’s potential! Seeing the bay window in one of the rooms I immediately knew I wanted this to be my daughter Leonis room. It was my dream to have a reading nook which she now has as a little girl. Naturally I contemplated making the accent colour pink, but when I saw this rug I knew it was perfect! When you invest in timeless pieces and keep-sakes it can grow and mature with the room. This room turned out so beautifully – it is everything I wanted for her. We also included a wall of toy storage for items that just belong to her (instead of in the shared playroom with her brothers). I think it’s very important for each child to have a sharing space, but also a separate spot that just belongs to them! I hope you love this room as much as I do!

Baby Diego´s Nursery

I want to share my newborn nursery project with all of you!!! My goal was to create a space for Diego to feel safe and calm, thats why I used grey, white and a light touch of blue to make it his safe place.
When I was searching for wallpapers, I found Livettes Wallpapers on Instagram. I immediately felt in love with the different patterns and designs they have. What I loved the most was that any design you can personalized it to make it you own. I used the Botanical Foliage with white background and the leaves in fog color. The result was PERFECT!!! Also the service at Livettes was amazing, always answering my doubts and concerns.
I hope you guys like my project as much as Diego and I do.

Boho Spring Baby Girl’s Room

Spring is here and our little one was transitioning into toddlerhood. We wanted to give her a fresh new space she could enjoy and grow into. Spring is absolutely the best time to update an interior space because we wanted to set a new outlook for the coming year. The best way we could think of to give the room a completely new look – is wallpaper! Our vision was soft shapes, light colors, natural wood furniture, and floral wallpaper. The wallpaper used for this project was Livette’s Wallpaper Fern design in the custom colour Clay.
When planning this project we wanted a fresh but boho, vintage vibe. The light wood baby crib and beautiful rust coloured star map ties in together with the boho lamp and decor pieces creating this warm and relaxed look. Adding some greenery livened up the room and created a special touch. The color scheme was neutrals with some pop of colors.  It’s so important to create a safe space for our baby because she will spend most of the time in this room as she grows. We made sure the overall feel was inviting, cozy, playful yet sophisticated.
 

On Cloud Nine Nursery

Because having a baby is like being on full time cloud nine. We designed this space for a gender neutral nursery that will grow with sweet baby, Jagger. We love the muted tones of gray and blue with black contrast. Our favorite part… definitely the cloud wallpaper on the ceiling with the cloud-like light fixture. It is the nursery that dreams are made of.

Modern Organic NYC Nursery

We did not necessarily want to choose a “theme” for baby boy’s nursery, but rather incorporate worldly, natural & earthy elements to bring a calming & grounding effect to his sacred space.
The primary focus was on mixing textures and elements. We went with high quality pieces that would last for years to come and be able to transition with our son as he grows.
The biggest inspiration for the project was all of our worldly travels – on our babymoon, we traveled to France, Morocco, and Italy and wanted to encompass some of those aspects into his nursery.

Abstract Nature Nursery

We are big DIYers and over the last few years, have DIYed a lot of the renovation on our 1960s house. When we found out we were expecting our first child, I knew I wanted to do something fun and special with her nursery. Before we got to the fun stuff like decorating however, the husband did a bunch of research on some bones-work on areas he wanted to improve on the room (things like removing the popcorn ceiling, adding sound-dampening measures to the room etc) and he got to work!
We were gifted a dresser from some friends that had used it with both their kids, so we knew it would be a great project to refresh for our own nursery!
Then, after all that work, it was finally my turn to have fun with designing and painting the nursery (at 33 weeks pregnant too!!)
While I love “themed” rooms and have done my fair share of them in the past, I wanted to design something that would be easy to buy accessories/items for, and not box ourselves into a corner with a too-specific theme. I also wanted to try to design something that in 3-5 years from now, she might still enjoy having as her room.
We are big gardening/nature people, and we also love the feel of mid-century-modern decor, so I took those areas of interest and loosely designed the room around them. I did a combination of MCM and plant shapes for the mural, picked a warm color scheme (most of our house is a combination of warm yellow/green/brown colors as well) and carried that theme throughout the room, by designing and painting some art and unfinished wood decor items to tie the room together!
We’re thrilled with the end result, and it’s been so easy to add items to the nursery, as the colors I used for the mural are very common to find in crib sheets, changing pad covers, baby clothes, stuffed animals etc.
