bunk bed curtains flexa

☆ Wordless Wed Linky Party is open every Wednesday! Link all #WW pictures here ! Thanks for supporting the weekly Fitness Finds series :) For Christmas last year, we decided to give Lil Pumpkin her own room {see my inspirations for her new room}. She has been co-sleeping with us since birth and initially I thought it would be an uphill task getting her to sleep in her own room, but since seeing how awesome her bed is, she's been very happy to sleep there {with daddy since he's afraid she'll fall out!} since April this year. Actually, I realise that I'm the one not ready to sleep without her at night!! I miss having her {and the boy} so sometimes I have to plead reaaaaally hard for her to sleep back on our bed with me... tsk. Before she got her own room, Lil Pumpkin had a cozy corner in our bedroom for her to play, read and take comfort in. We've since moved over her toys and some of the shelves to her new room. I plan to convert her old cozy corner into my cozy corner/ workspace haha.

Have not started on this home project yet though. Her room was actually the boy's study so that explains the monotones. Was toying with the idea of repainting the walls with something more girly but we thought to leave it as a more neutral colour {says the mum who bought a pink castle bed!} so that Lil Pumpkin can share the room with a future sibling, who might be a boy. The bed is from FLEXA and is pretty pricey, but the quality is excellent and you can configure it in many different ways, to reflect your individual tastes and ideas. Lil Pumpkin really loves the princess castle play curtains and the slide!! She plays on the slide every day, and is so willing to sleep in the bed that we find it a worthwhile investment :) The boy and I were thinking of a HABA bed that had a swing, rock climbing wall, reading nook, hammock etc but of course, that was about 4 times the price of this bed, and we really couldn't justify getting a bed so expensive even for our beloved child. If Lil Munchin comes along, we can convert this bed into a bunk bed as well.

The bed will well last her until her teenage year {minus the play curtains and slide, of course} and can take up to about 100kg. Currently under her bed we are storing more of her toys, so the play curtains really help to block out the "mess" too! We can put another mattress there in case any guest stays over as well. On the other side of the bed is her play and reading area. Kitchen set, swing, mat all from Ikea, and the easel is from Crayola. Her little chalk table for reading, writing and craft as well as the diy washi chair I made for her.

I used Wikki Stix to create the colourful flower mural. I'm inspired by washi wall murals but find that it uses a lot of washi tape, which I find quite wasteful ;p Decorated the switch box with Wikki Stix too so that it creates some texture and is easier to find in the dark at night heh. Mini paper lanterns from Typo and kept in place on the yarn with Wikki Stix. We used about 3 containers {each contains 10 balls} in varying designs for a whimsical ceiling look. They aren't attached to their light-bulbs as the cords weren't long enough to go across the ceiling.

I want to decorate the mini wooden chest of drawers. Haven't decided with what yet.. maybe paint or washi. Some of her artpieces from her weekly art classes are displayed on the shelves and walls too :)

It's getting to be quite a collection though, so I'm finding it hard to store and display them all! Lil Pumpkin's room is about 80% done, but still a work in progress. I'll update again later when more has been done. Hope you enjoyed her room tour!
