How about some Sunday inspiration

Ideas for the kid's rooms

Today I took the twins to the pool and now that they're eight years old, I don't need to shave my bikini line, put on my stretched out suit, and think about the warts, athletes feet, and used band aids floating by me.  A nice lady told me the rec center password (which apparently is a secret) and I found a plug to charge my laptop.....I'm on my way to blogland for a little visit!

I'm again thinking of the boys rooms and thought I'd document some inspiration.  I'm doing three rooms for three very different boys.  For Kaleel who's 8, I wanted to do one that was a little rough around the edges and a bit beachy as he is obsessed with Roatan, Honduras.  My other boy, Rylan who is also 8,  could just spend the whole day drawing so I thought a highly organized looking room that could display his artwork with loads of bright color might do the trick.  And for my oldest boy he would like a funky vintage vibe with black and white photography and plenty of cool animal references.  One stipulation:  I want the walls all white.  I also have a 4 year old little girl but more to come on ideas for her room....soon.
Cheers!
I love this 'ball of string' pendant.  I want to make one for the kids room.
Hope it looks as good at this one.



How about this lighting idea?  Try stringing up two wires
and laying the cords across them.  just need to figure out how to hard wire this project.
LOVE IT!













I have been spying designer  Jenni Juurinen  for some time now.  I just adore the highly stylized photos and will be using them for tons of practical ideas.  LOVE IT like pasta loves sauce!
