Well well well, it seems I forgot a room in our home tour. Wita is VERY disappointed with my blogging.
To be fair, Wita’s room has been the most in flux over the past year – first a crib and glider, then onto a big girl bed. Here a few photos from the baby days.
elephant storage. boots. stool.
mobile. memory game. string animals.
And her current setup.
All in all, a nice update to the original room from when we bought the house.
Hold me.
p.s. – Any locals looking for a glider? We are looking to sell the Room & Board blue one in the photos.

June 4, 2014 at 8:16 amThis is so beautiful! Love both set ups. It’s actually kind of funny. Everytime I see a children’s room from America, the bed stands out from the wall. In Denmark all the beds in children’s room is against the wall sideways. Does that even make sense? Anyways, it’s a pretty random observation ;)

June 4, 2014 at 8:39 amWhat a lovely, calming space. I have a question for you- Wita’s room is so tidy and the space is not overwhelmed by toys. How do you deal with the influx of toy detritus- the prizes from the dentist’s office, party favors, preschool rewards? It looks like you keep things to a minimum- what’s your secret?

June 4, 2014 at 7:44 pmWell, first off, those were professional photos, so we had the rooms in optimal shape. ;) There are PLENTY of days when it looks like a tsunami hit, I promise. However, I am a stickler and purger of sorts. I don’t hold onto much – clutter makes me feel a bit craycray, so stuff like you mentioned usually goes straight in the trash or goodwill bag.

June 4, 2014 at 9:04 amLOVE your style! Seriously, all of the rooms in your home are amazing. Question about Wita’s bed…did you use a simple IKEA frame, and then add the hairpin-style legs? Or was this a previous bed carried by IKEA? If you added the legs, where did you find them? Sorry for all the questions—I’m kind of in love with her bed, can you tell? I have two little girls who are ready for a bedroom upgrade and this room is definitely my inspiration!

June 4, 2014 at 7:45 pmIt was a bed style from a few years back – I guess they don’t carry it anymore. :( Thanks for the compliments!

June 4, 2014 at 4:15 pmIt’s beautiful! Quick question– who makes the window shade? I’m in the market for something just that discreet for our house.

June 4, 2014 at 7:34 pmI have the matching dresser to that chest of drawers and it is my favorite piece of furniture in the entire house. Lovely room you have there.
