BEFORE

I designed Hudsons nursery 7 years in the past, once I was pregnant. It was orange, and fox themed, and so so cute! After we moved from our residence into our present dwelling, I shifted all of his furnishings from one room into the opposite, after which as he obtained greater, I used loads fo fast fixes to make the area extra purposeful. His toddler mattress was from IKEA and we beloved it, and the storage is IKEA as nicely. However over time, it began to really feel like all the fast fixes layered on high of each other seemed not nicely thought out, and a bit messy. Each evening I discovered myself cleansing up with not sufficient correct storage options, and I felt like his room didn’t have a correct theme. As soon as Charlie inherited his mattress, I knew it was time to rethink the area!

Hudson stated he needed his room to be inexperienced, and he needed a BIG BED. These had been his two huge asks. I ended up choosing a full sized mattress over a queen, because the sq. footage of his room is fairly small. I upgraded his dresser to a taller one, so he has extra drawer area for clothes since his closet is tight. I additionally put in two Billy Bookcases to incorporate extra hidden storage for artwork provides, toys, and many others. I added a rug to the area, as a result of beforehand he simply had hardwood flooring. I actually needed him to have a spot to take a seat to learn or work on lego, and when I discovered this flooring sofa, I knew it was simply good.

Total, the room feels much more cohesive, whereas nonetheless being extraordinarily purposeful for him. I additionally love that he can develop with the area, and it looks like it would work till he’s way more grown! It nonetheless has one thing childlike about it, however in the end can age nicely! He’s so proud of the way it turned out, and saved telling me how grateful he was when it was first carried out!
