The idea here was to use this room for Piper as her baby room initially, with the thought that a few years down the road, she will move in with Lola, leaving this as the family room. Having that in mind, I didn't want to make it too nursery-ish (how forward thinking!).
I will use the Cole & Son wallpaper for the main wall and have a grey & white color palette for the room. Furniture wise we will have to move Lola out of her Kaloo baby cot for Piper, will buy a few other things from Ikea such as the sofa bed. Well, this will triple up as a guest room too. Husband also been eyeing this as his music room. Let's just call it a multipurpose room.
Interestingly, the major challenge here was the closet which should double up as as a TV cabinet when this becomes a family room (hence the middle closet doors need to be able to fully open up). A few designs have came up none work out well. I would really have to drill him some more tomorrow. I was very weary of the CNY holiday and how there will be no production in China a good 20 days.
This is what we have so far but the middle section seems very narrow given set up. Might have to switch it to sliding doors instead? Any thoughts? I personally don't like sliding doors and they aren't the safest for children either.
This will be the smallest room of the three, as part of it was carved out as a storage room - another thing only I seem to think was important. Both husband and Ed, didn't agree. Interestingly, husband was the hoarder of the household.
Piper was kicking as I was typing this. She was protesting against the fact her room wasn't fully tailer-made for her.
