We wanted a bright, fun space that wasn’t overly girly and that would grow with her into the toddler years.

Congratulations on this room!!! I so love how festive it is and the details are very childish and fun! I’m sure Mattea loves this room as much as we all do!

Thanks! We very much wanted it to be a ‘kids’ room, not a sophisticated adult space, but still with a sense of style and cohesion. Our little girl is just starting to take an interest in things and can’t take her eyes off the wallpaper border when she is lying on the change table, so we think she likes it!

I agree with you in using bright colors. I think that it makes the room more alive and more fun which is how nurseries should be. But I have to salute you for using white furniture to offset the wacky colors of this room. Where’d you get that canopy?

The net canopy over the cot is from ikea.

I adore that umbrella lamp you have there. Where’d you get it? I definitely love the accents of this room, it’s so fun to look at!

Hi 2mums! Your little one surely loves the wallpaper border. It looks interesting even for grown ups like me, so how much more for her. You did a really great job.

@2mums: Thanks. Ikea does seem to be a treasure trove of interior decorating stuff and ideas. And the best thing is the price.

Normally I don’t care for “busy” rooms but I LOVE this one! It’s just so bright, cheery and fun what’s not to love?! All the colors seem to be in balance with one another. I think my fav thing is the adorable light pendant. So cute!

@BuenaMano – I love the umbrella lamp too. We actually saw it while renovating the rest of our house a couple of years ago and bought it before I was even pregnant! It came from Beacon Lighting but I’m based in Australia so not sure how much help that is…

The umbrella is my favorite too! I also like the red gingham accents (but my son’s room is done in red gingham too ;) I noticed the IKEA treasures right away-you even got all the toys! Nice job. It is definitely a children’s room-just as it should be. Oh, and the gingerbread is genious. I was just looking at a gingerbread boy the other day and thinking it was such a shame we only saw the adorable little guys during Christmas!
