So my little boy is the most amazing thing on earth, BUT he has taken over my home – so I’m taking back my sanctuary with some new bedroom furniture and furnishings… That’s right, he can have the living room, the office, the kitchen, dining room and of course his own room – but I’m reclaiming mine! We have started with a new bed and mattress and it is starting to feel like a big girl room again. Some great new bedroom furniture and dressings is transforming my room back into a space for me and my husband and not another play space for my little one. I’m not saying its a no go zone for Max – this is his house, we’re just living in it! No, in order to have a beautiful space for me I have some beautiful bedroom furniture that can also hide his toys. We actually got a teepee for him that sits in the corner that is his little fort (and hides his toys). It actually looks very cool and modern so, not an eye sore for us – and a fun spot for him. Other alternatives are beautiful storage benches for the end of the bed or other potential pieces of bedroom furniture that look great but can store his mess! Moms and Dad’s need a sanctuary – a place to remember that they’re not just mom and dad but they’re also husband and wife, grownups that want a grown up space to call their own. I’m not saying go out and spend a ton of money – but if your bed is tired it might be time to treat yourself, even with just a new headboard – or perhaps just some new throw pillows, a bedside table or just a fun accent piece that makes you happy… The key with creating a little oasis is keeping the furniture pretty neutral (taupe, grey, cream, navy) and then choosing an accent color or 2 that work together and popping the room with accents – throw pillows, lamps, rugs, decoratives etc… Check out some of my favorite bedroom furniture and furnishings that give you the escape from all the barbies, legos, tucks and everything else that Toys R Us threw up in the rest of the house…
