Anouk's Bedroom Update

Hello dear blogfriends,

It's Monday again. I hope you had a nice and happy WE.
We had a lot of snow and had to stay cozy at home.

Last week I tried the tree project in Anouk's bedroom.

It was easy and fast project, completed in three hours.

I'm totally pleased with it! It completely transforms the room while being very quite at the same time.


I purchased those adorable cushions in sale at Zara Home.
I knew Anouk would love them since they remind me of Richard Scarry's little characters.


The room looks very big in that pic, but it is actually tiny.



We used the same curtains as in the living room. It creates an easy flow in the house. I still have a pair of them and I am decided to put them in our bedroom too.


There is still so many things to do. Like buying a rug, installing the light fixture and... other projects I'll speak about soon!

Trees in Nursery?

Dear blogfriends,
How are you today? I'am so glad it's friday! This week has been very busy at work and I'd love some rest this WE.
Tomorrow, I'd also like to work further on the nursery (and be able to take decent pictures!).

However, I am facing a dilemna :
You probably noticed that trees are very popular in nurseries right now. I'm not sure I like this trend. I think it can been very cheesy. Some are very lovely (like on the pic below)... but not really my style...


I like graphic accent wall better... Like this :

I think it has more "energy". If you want awesome examples for nurseries, check here and here.

But there is a problem. The first idea was to hang the Little Darlings above the dresser facing the entrance.


Then the graphic wall was supposed to be the wall behind the crib...


The problem is that the wall facing the door is very hard and I would need to drill in order to hang the frames. I don't really feel like drilling since the configuration of the room might change a lot in the future with (maybe) a second baby...

So the new idea is to hang the frames above the bed. This would work perfect!


However, the wall facing the door is then very bare. I really don't think it would work as accent wall and I don't feel like painting the all room. I love this room to be bright and crisp.

So, although I am not crazy about the tree trend, I am considering painting a very simple tree in a soft grey shade in the corner. Just like this one below (but without the birds).


Maybe I like the model bellow better...

What do you think? I'd love to have your opinion!
