I still feel too young, the mere thought makes me panic and I’d totally freak if it happened to me now.  What am I talking about?  Having babies of course!  I guess it’s just not the right time for me yet.  There’s no harm in planning for the future though and if anyone loves cute baby things, it’s me!!  A nursery has to one of the most fun rooms to decorate, right?…

Via The Sweetest Occasion

Duck-egg blue and yellow are ideal colours for a unisex bedroom.  The delicate pastel shades give a fresh, light, clean feel- perfect for the new little arrival!

Via I Like It, I Love It!

Wall decals are having a ‘moment’ and it’s easy to see why.  You can transform a room in minutes and the results are brilliant!

Via A-List Baby

 


Via Blush Ink


Via Flip Flops and Polks Dots

I wouldn’t mind this storage for myself actually- it’s perfect for all your bits and bobs!

As we’re on the subject of illustration and art, I thought it would be appropriate to name this cute children’s accessories boutique our Shop of the Week

Children’s accessories are so delightful and fun… they are probably the best audience to design for as you can really go to town in terms of creativity.

‘My Favourite Spot in Winter’ cushion, £42

 

 

‘I Like Your Bow’ mounted print by Mandy Sutcliffe, £20

Feed your child’s imagination with colourful wall art in their bedroom.

 

 

‘Little Madam’ doll, £8

The cotton ‘doll’, above, has a little pocket sewn into the back… ideal to use as a lavender bag or a place to put teeth ready for the tooth fairy to collect!

A child’s bedroom is the place where you can really go to town with colour.  Help to stimulate their minds with lots of imagery and a bright colour palette.

Opt for easy-to-wipe surfaces, lots of clever storage and wooden flooring to keep the room as clean and as tidy as possible with minimal effort!  I’ve never seen a child’s bedroom look so tidy (above)!

Wall stickers are ideal for a child’s bedroom; not only do they help to brighten up the room, the stickers can also be changed as the child grows older to suit their ever-altering taste… genious!
