It’s Halloween! I hope you’re having a good one. I’ve been so thankful for this cooler weather and the relief fall brings to my heart. I also can’t wait to eat so much of my kids candy. It really is the best time of the year.
While I don’t have a Halloween related post to share with you, I do have a kid related post to share with you and kids and Halloween go together so I’m still in theme...not…but whatever.
Today, I wanted to share a redesign post I did for a friend, Necole, and her boy and girl’s shared bedroom. (More on my e-design services here) Unisex bedrooms can be tricky especially when you want to make sure that each kid gets a space that reflects them and is important to them. I tried to create a space that will grow with them and not feel like an impersonal room. This is the design plan I shared with their sweet momma. *psst. this post includes affiliate links*

You could easily find a thrift store night stand for in between their beds. Something like this would look so good too. It’s metal so it’s easily wipe-able and each kiddo could have a drawer.

I picked some rattan (but plastic) toy bins. A row of hooks for coats, backpacks or dress up. A cute shelf for little trinkets or things that need to stay up and out of the way and some cute wall art for a gallery wall right by the door on K’s current bed wall.
A simple, modern black curtain rod and some plain white curtains will look so nice, soften the room and work for both kiddos. I even picked out some outdoor fabric in case you wanted to make the window ledge a seat for reading and relaxing.
The window wall is also where you’ll have your extra storage. These pax wardrobes from Ikea would be a great way to add some closet space to the room. I’d buy them in white to keep the space looking light and bright. You could even trim these out to make them look like a wall of built ins.
