corners of my home: zak + layla's room


Boy + girl = pastels, apparently!

So I've finally figured out what I'm going to do in this room, I'll be working on it during the holidays, but here is a little peek at one corner. They're not both in there just yet. Zak has partially graduated to a big boy's bed (he's fine in it during the day, but ends up in cot at night at the moment) and Layla started sleeping in there in his cot during the day yesterday, which was interesting. So I'm slowly starting to merge their things. Here is where the Made By Girl LOVE poster I won ended up (thanks Trina!). It's going to be a bit of a challenge and a lot of fun (hopefully!) creating a combined space for a boy and a girl. Wish me luck!




Zakky's side features a Dazey Chic print, painted MDF dinosaur and (much-loved and therefore filthy dirty) knitted teddy my Nana made him.


Layla's half: ballet shoes, Belle & Boo print, an "L" I customised and paper butterflies.


The deer head is from Hart & Heim, the cow money box from Fragile and the wooden truck was $8 from Vinnies!

What a beautiful vignette. I love the colours, perfect for a shared room. How fabulous is that little wooden truck?

Merry Christmas Belinda. xx

PS. My Real Living arrived today, I haven't had time for a big read (I'm supposed to be packing for our holiday!) but I LOVE the image on page 91. I'm feeling very inspired!
