Unique paintings for kids room

In this post, I 'm going to present you a few of my brand new handmade paintings, which could be a unique gift for a newborn or a perfect decorating item for your kids room..

As I love so much quotes, handwriting and calligraphy, I thought that it would be a lovely idea to create some original paintings which could decorate in a unique way a kid's room! 

All paintings are handmade by me with so much love.

Whimsical kids' headboards

There are so many ways to decorate a kid's room in order to look unique! You can use fabulous wallpapers, amazing colour combinations, original in shape shelves, unique cushions & fluffy toys, wonderful crispy linens... But what about the bed? Will you add a common bed in your kid's room?

Personally, I adore those kids' beds with big whimsical headboards which are either painted in the kid's favourite theme/hero or those which look like a little country home...

Happy shelves for the kid's room

Today, we'll deal with the decoration of the kid's room walls... It is an issue which concerns all parents, when they are in the process of decorating their little princess's (or prince) room! 

The majority is looking for happy colors to paint the walls or whimsical wallparers to cover them... And then what? Personnaly, I find very interesting the use of little shelves or boxes painted in happy colors and filled with the kids' fluffy toys, books, frames with their photos, art or whimsical string lights. There is a big variety of designs and combinations to use, according to the space and the kids' needs... 

DIY: Creating Art for Nursery

I 'm so happy this season, because one of my best friends is going to be mom for her third time in a few days... So, as this period I am on holidays, far away from professional obligations and I have a lot of free time,  I decided to make a special handmade gift for her baby boy! After some hours of thinking, I decided to create two little paintings which will decorate perfectly the wall above his crib. 

As he will be born in the end of the August, I chose to use two colours which reminds the Greek Summer! I painted the background with my favourite colour, which is nothing else but turquoise, the colour of the pure sea water. For the details I chose some shades of orange... Those who takes the sky the sunset hour! 

The paintings' theme is the forest and the Indians... One of little boys' favourite theme! I designed the head of a little deer, an Indian tepee, some feathers and some arrows on balsa wood. Then I cut them and glued them on the canvas in order to create a kind of 3D result. The final step was to write on them some messages for their little owner, with my black markers. 

The materials I used for this project was: two canvas frames of 20x20cm, a piece of balsa wood, acrylic colours and my  favourite markers.

Vintage air in the kid's room

If you are a fan of vintage, why don't you try this style in your kid's room? Vintage gives always a romantic and nostalgic air in the atmosphere of a room... Just use a soft gray color as a background on the walls and add touches of pale pink, green or blue in decorative items and linens. 

I loved this room from the first sight!!! The addition of some simple and not at all expensive items, makes it the perfect vintage kid's room! A vintage map of Paris, a water color rabbit stamped cushion, some fabric handmade toys, a crochet blanket, a lovely black & white garland and some pink cherry twigs are the items which compose this amazing result...

Hot air balloons in the kid's room

Hot air balloons are a charming trend for kids rooms, as they are so whimsical, they offer the romantic atmosphere of another era and inspire the imagination... There are plenty of options on how you can use them in the decoration of a kid's room. You can simply hang some mini hot air balloons or a mobile from the ceiling, you can use linens, blankets and cushions with this theme or to dress up the room's walls with a hot air balloon themed wallpaper... There are some amazing in the market or you can order one with the help of a specialist! 

Montessori Kid's Room

Last years, I discovered the Montessori educational system, because of my sweet Godchildren who is attending this school. After 5 years (oh my God...he is yet 8 years old) we are now so sure that it was the best choice...  

Montessori philosophy is not only focus on the education offered in a school but it is more spherical as it analyzes with details the way that parents ought to grow up their children and how they can organize their everyday life in their home so as their children achieve their independence very soon. Besides, the Montessori moto is: "Help me to do it by myself"!!!

Today, I will try to give you a spherical idea on what a Montessori kid's bedroom means!   According to Montessori system, the way we are usually equip & decorate an infant's or kid's room is extremely wrong! Firstly, we ought to "see" the room with the eyes of the child... that means, from her or his height. We have to create a room where our child could have access to everything without the help of an adult person and of course to feel free on it and to be always safe! For example, we don't need to buy a crib as its fence deprives the sense of the freedom. The best solution is to place a mattress directly on the floor, surrounded with a lot of pillows when our kid is newborn. Later, it will be easier for the child to move from the bed without help! Also, it is very important for his mental growth the placement of a mobile above his bed and a mirror next to it so as the baby start recognize himself.

Another point in Montessori philosophy  is the way we store the toys and the books in a kid's room. Everything must be easily accessible... So, we have to create storage shelves and bookshelves  of short height. 

Here you can find a lot of inspiration on how you can organize your sweetie's room, making her or him happier and help her or him to evolve into an independent person in the future!!!

p.s.: In this article I am just mentioning some information about the Montessori philosophy; in order to create a Montessori room by yourself, you need the help of a professional or many hours of studying about it, as there are tons of information around the www...

Kids' studying area II

Here we are again to see some kids' studying areas, as I have promised. Aren't they cute? I love them so much because they are so inspired, full of light and very chic... Everyone has its unique style, designed for a special child as yours! You needn't spend a fortune in order to have a kid room like those... The only think you need is your imagination, some hours to spend in order to paint the room or to repurpose some old furniture and to find the linen that fits to the room's style. It would be perfect if you do all those work with the help of your children....
