Renewed the wardrobe. KIDS ROOM DECOR #4

The next step in renewal of my child's room.

To renew the wardrobe, I use a paper map and Magnetic Chalkboard Paint. The map I bought for less than 4 pounds in the store The Works. One map was enough to the front of the wardrobe. In addition to the decoration I cut out the shape of a train of felt and made garlands.

Kids Bedding and Accessories. KIDS ROOM DECOR #6

Shortly before the birth of my second boy I had time to sew linen and bag toys for son's room. When I chose the materials I thought about how much my son loves choo-choo trains, and I love minimalism. I made a sheet at the stars, and the cover duvet cover with one hand has a star, on the other trains. My son loves it, do I.

In the same fabrics as the sheet and duvet cover I made cute owls for my children. Owls love not only my children, so you can buy quite similar in my Etsy shop. I painted these owls.

On another wall there are new stars. Kai's room almost finished. I would like to make furniture, I can not wait to do so.

...and in bed, he can read a book to his younger brother

My favourite buys - The Very Hungry Caterpillar

Do you buy gadgets for children to encourage them to eat? I fed my son by Baby Led Weaning (BLW). Unfortunately my son as he was two years old stopped eating, he used to eat when was younger. You could say that somehow had failed in this method, even though, it does not discourage me. I'm going to feed my second child the same, but today it is not about BLW.

Kai loves this set, more likely to eat fruit. Bowl with compartments must be always full of fruit, and the cup is his favorite. Soup from a bowl with a hungry caterpillar taste better for him, but still it's tomato and chicken soup but he tries all he used to eat earlier.

twinkle twinkle little star - KIDS ROOM DECOR #5

Some time ago I made another step in renewing Kai's room . Some have seen in my Instagram photos, which of course welcome.
This time I decided to decorate the wall of the room. I chose the stars, because Kai likes them and I knew that he will be glad and I wasn't wrong.
To do the stars I used vinyl wallpaper. Stars of vinyl wallpaper is very easy to sticking and easy to remove, which is important when renting a flat (though I don't give a 100% guarantee).

Looking at the arrangement of yellow stars, if you guessed what it might mean? It is a constellation of stars of the zodiac fish, under which my son was born. As we finished stick stars, my son Kai was watching and he smiled.

Theme of stars is quite popular, but spite of its popularity is charming.
To the theme of stars I will come back on the occasion of the preparation for Nerio corner. And how do you like this theme?

Dining table. The second life furniture.

It was just a cheap table. I did not expect that, under a layer of low quality paint, the table is made of such a beautifull wood. Wood quality is not good, but usually these boards have a beautiful pattern.

I wouldn't found it out if I had not put a cloth soaked in stain remover on the table. Stain remover was so good that dissolved the paint.

The rest had been easy. I've used sandpaper. After cleaning, I painted the legs of the table with white paint to match the finishes in the room. I've used a paste wax to protect the table top and make it resistant to water, see also {HERE}.

To match the chair to the table, I added just a small white accent.

Mini ZOO. Do it yourself.

Make a Sweet Animals using clips to clothes.

You can use them to secure a variety of snacks and fun with the kids.

What do you need?

Clips for clothes.

Glue or tape.

Colorful crayons.

Scissors.

Have fun with your child!

I'm Your Bag!

I have made a bag for my child and then I painted it. To sew my son's bag I used an old bag. It was easier. I have used some ready-made parts of an old shopping bag.
