BK has a beautiful nursery, it is actually my favorite room in our house, the only problem with this nursery is that it never gets any use. Sure we play in there every few days, and we snuggle on the glider to read a story or two, but for the most part it is an empty room.
BK still cosleeps (no judgements from you over there giving me the side eye), and most of her toys are downstairs where we spend the majority of our time. Now that BK is about to be one {and get way more toys than she needs}, we figure it's time to actually get the playroom in order.
Here are my playroom requirements:
-lots of storage
-completely safe {i.e. gated off, nothing that can fall on her if I leave the room for a few minutes, etc}
-fun bright colors
-space for "school time" and art projects
-a mommy nook
-a cozy corner
I whipped up this little collage of items that I love:
I cant wait for S to create that little stage/cozy corner. I was going to create a hanging canopy, but I like the idea that as BK grows the area can grow with her. The gray ruffle curtains will hang from the cozy corner, and I'm going to incorporate lots of turquoise, coral, and purple.
These are the curtains I am debating between for the windows
So what do you think? What are your playroom requirements? Which curtains do you like?
I love the third set of curtains! I think they're the brightest, and that just screams playroom to me. I also love the idea of the coral pillows, and I bet you could make a rug similar to that one without much cost or effort :) I can't wait to see what you come up with!
ReplyDeleteI love those pillows and definitely the third curtain! That little nook is great too
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see it finished
This sounds amazing, I can not wait to see what you make of the space!

I love to read, and as a kid I would have adored that little nook! Any thoughts for getting big floor pillows or something similar for in there?
