I spent most of my free time in the summer working on transforming the kids room from a nursery to more of a kids space. I realize I don’t think I’ve ever really shared a full post on what their room fully looked like as a nursery, however I think you will get to see most of it with the before pictures I have taken. Today I wanted to share some inspiration photos with you that were really my jumping off point.
I love the dark, bold bed frames in the photos below.
The contrast with the neutral wall,
and the symmetry with the arrangement of furniture.
Even though they share a space, I wanted it to remain mostly neutral,
with a few pieces that were gender specific on their beds.
My kids are 2 and 4, so while they are still young,
I wanted a space they could grow into, and keeping things neutral allows the room to transition over time.

I know there are plenty of ways to blend a boys room and a girls room together, but I wanted the overall feel to be neutral, instead of a designated blue side, and a designated hot pink side.

I started with these photos as my base, and began to put together a room design based off of key elements I liked in each of the spaces. Next I will share my girls room inspiration and boys room inspiration, and how I married the two together for their shared space.
