Kids Bedroom | creativity in vintage and blue

Who said that a little girl's room must be pink?! 

This girl wanted a blue room and she got it... and it's not less feminine because of it. 

With a sweet romantic and vintage atmosphere, this room is full of great ideas to anyone looking for inspiration on how to decorate a girl's bedroom.

All the furniture is painted white, creating a neutral base that will hardly need any changing as the child grows up.

Blue tape on the white painted floor makes for a fun and imaginative area rug.

Pillows are always a great idea. They can transform a bed into a cosy and inviting sofa during playtime. And just by changing their covers you can have a completely different styled room.

The walls come as a perfect canvas to reflect one's imagination.

The wall board next to the work desk is made of a patchwork of various fabrics and patterns. And a collection of different frames, painted in different shades of blue are perfect to keep the little one's works of art and all sorts of personal mementos.

Scandinavian style - Bright apartment in Sweeden

I've been struggling for a while trying to decide if I wanted to post about this apartment or not. But I kept finding my self going through all these photos, over and over again. It's the styling of it that puzzles me. There are many little decoration elements that I don't like, I can even say that I find them hideous. But then there are other details that work perfectly for me. And I love the space, the brightness, the white from ceiling to floor...and those double doors. And the general image looks actually very cosy to me. So I'm still confused but I'm sharing it anyway...

Bloomingville Catalogue SS2013

I love it when the new catalogues from my favourite web-shops start making their appearance. Now that 2012 is behind us I'm feeling all excited with the prospect of days getting longer and brighter, and I crave for images of homes dressed for warmer days.  Yesterday I went through the new Spring/Summer catalogue from Bloomingville and decided to share some of my favourite images and tendencies for the next season.

Rowen & Wren - Autumn/Winter Collection

For this Autumn/Winter, Rowen&Wren created 3 great collections: Timeless Living, Refined Rural and Distant Home. Each collection  has it's own character and provides for a specific atmosphere, and I strongly advise to click on the links and take a good look at all of them, even because the pictures are really beautiful. 

For this post, though, I will share my selection of favourites from the Refined Rural collection. I identify myself more with this particular collection. I love the tones and the textures... and I fell in love with those bread boards the moment I set my eyes on them.
