Kids Rooms

Affordable, Stylish Kids Furniture and Accessories from Walmart.com

 

I hope you have had a wonderful week so far. Today, I’m excited to share with you a little revamp I did to my daughter Ivy’s room while shopping on Walmart.com.

Ivy is a big reader. It’s definitely one of her favorite pastimes. I can often find her curled up on the couch, absorbed in a good book. It always makes me happy to see her reading. This is definitely a hobby I want to encourage, so when I was styling her room, I wanted to make sure to create a fun, cozy space for her to hang out and read.

Q+A: Kid Friendly Design

A question that I get from many clients is, “How do I get the fresh, clean high-end look I love but still have a kid-friendly home?” If you have a family, white couches and expenisve rugs might make you cringe and the idea of a stain-free, clutter-free space might make you laugh. Kids are hard on homes. But although you should factor them in to your design plans, kids don’t mean you have to sacrifice the look you love. Today I am sharing tips on creating a home the whole family can live in and love.

Use Washable, Stain Resistant Upholstery

A lot of the most popular pins on Pinterest use white furniture. It’s a look many of my clients love, but of course one hard to maintain with kids. If your heart is set on white, it is doable. Choose a slipcovered sofa in washable fabric. I love to use indoor/outdoor Perennials fabric that can easily be wiped down. Another option is to use a light colored natural linen fabric instead. It captures the fresh beachy feel of white, without the stress.

10 Fresh Kid Bedroom Inspirations

While we focus on designing the main spaces of our houses, our kids often get stuck in the nurseries they’ve outgrown or a room put together with all the furniture leftovers. Today, I’m sharing a roundup of bedrooms for the kids to help inspire a refresh. These spaces are fun and playful but with a hint of sophistication. They are fresh and pretty enough that I wouldn’t mind claiming one for myself! Take a peek.

Heber Project: Modern Bunk Room

I have a fun space reveal to share with you today, the bunk room of our Heber House Project collaboration with Jamie Bellessa. This is a kid-friendly, cozy space with layers of warm neutrals, rustic wood, and brass accents that look beautiful in this mountain home. If you would like to see more of out Heber House Project you can visit the blue modern farmhouse kitchen, the master bedroom, and the library. Take a peek!

To create a fresh foundation in the space, we chose light carpeting and Benjamin Moore Swiss Coffee paint. Although we often paint all the trim a matching white, in this room we left the window trim a natural wood in order to create warmth and embrace the rustic vibe of the location.

Layered rugs protect the light carpet and add warmth to the space. We chose a vintage Turkish kilim rug in earthy tones paired with a plush faux sheepskin. I love using fur to the side of a bed. Sinking your feet into the plush rug creates a sense of luxury as you get in and out of bed. A pair of beautiful bunk beds in a dark weathered wood add plenty of sleeping room for family and guests. The bedding is neutral, but ombre pillows and geometric patterned sheets add subtle interest.

A clean-lined white campaign dresser with brass hardware serves as both storage and night stand between the two beds. We styled the piece with greenery, books, and  this cool geometric concrete lamp that lends a modern rustic feel.

We finished off the space with a large brass mirror, brass sconces above each bed, and a few fun details for the kids like the fur bean bag and tee pee.

This modern bunk is fresh and clean feeling but with subtle colors and textures that create an inviting warmth. It is a kid-friendly space but still feels sophisticated enough for adult guests. To create this feeling in your own home, get the look below.

Happy Monday!
