Made To Match Bedrooms

The best thing about Giggleberry Creations custom ordered buntings is they can be made to match your existing decor to add the perfect finishing touch.
In the past few weeks I have had lots of fun creating some buntings for kids bedrooms to match their gorgeous bedding and have loved the result...
To match the KAS Australia kids bedding 'Jim's Repairs' this bunting is a fun and bright combo.
This sweet pink, red and turquoise combo bunting was made to match the Adairs 'Olivia Owl' set
And this funky robot set was made to match the KAS Australia 'Robotron' range.
Cool hey??

Kids rooms finished!

I have found a quiet moment to finally show you what I have done in the Jr Giggleberry's bedrooms.
Remember HERE I showed you this sneak peak at my ideas?


They have now all come together - Yay!

Milla's room is lime green and purple. I went with these colours as she had a lime green IKEA hippo pattern blanket in her cot as a baby and LOVES it so much she still sleeps with it every night so it lives on the end of her bed on top of her purple doona that she picked out when she went into a 'big girl bed'.



I took this colour scheme into the HUGE tree decal that is the feature of her room by asking for most of the leaves to be lime green and all the acorns and animals to be purple. I have added to this wall a few little birdhouses I couldn't resist from Sweet Little Birdie


I am loving that her room is big enough to have her play kitchen in it without taking over the whole room.


I still adore Milla's custom sewn artworks by Moonmum. A new addition to her room is the fun painted wooden letters from Stix & Stones and my girl wouldn't be satisfied if there wasn't her dress up basket and hobby horse close by too!



and of course no Jr Giggleberry's room would be complete without some bunting!

Onto Capt'n Harrison's room....



This room is 90% done... We still haven't bought a 'big bed' as Harris is still too little to climb up to a big bed but was becoming too much of a monkey to stay in a cot! And because we haven't chosen a bed yet we aren't sure how much space we'll need for it so the plan to mount a real boat steering wheel on his wall that will spin, so Harris can play pirates, is being put off until then.



I have been one lucky girl and won a few giveaways in the past 12 months that has helped me gather the piratey bits for this room. I won the Pirate's Life quote from Quote The Walls and the Harrison's World map in the frame I won from Vidastyle



A bit of bunting above his window and mirrored cupboard is a fun splash of colour!
I'd love to find a beaten up old trunk for his room to be a 'treasure chest' where I could keep all his toys..... hmmmm the hunt is on!

The Decal Tree

Hooray! We are in our new house, unpacked and LOVING it!!! It was a action packed weekend moving but with babysitting help from my wonderful mother in law we had it all done much faster than we thought.
It might seem a little crazy but as we were childless for the night and we hadn't yet put together the kids beds etc (and with a bit of general 'new house' excitement) I decided, at about 7pm on the day we moved in, I would 'play' with the huge tree decal I had bought for Milla's room.

Before: Blank wall in Milla's room



After:


This was such a fun project, a BIG project but a fun one!

The decal (from this etsy shop) came in about 57,000 pieces... alright maybe not that many but there were allot! The trunk was in two sections, each branch was one piece, then there was the smaller branches, each animal was separate, each acorn, and every individual leaf - I didn't mind though because that gave me a bit of 'creative license' to make it however I wanted.

The process:


The tree trunk and beginning to place the branches


branches all done


All the birdies, nest, squirrel and acorns in place - at this point it was about 10pm and the day of moving house had hit me so I packed up for the night and went to bed.


Up bright and early the next day (after a lovely breakfast out with my gorgeous hubby) I started placing the leaves on the tree - Biggest one's first.


about 2hrs later all leaves were in place and the tree was complete! Yay! I then quickly set up Milla's bed and toys ready for her to come home at lunch time to her new bedroom.... she LOVES it and says goodnight to all the decal animals at night!

Decorating sneak peak

Up until now we have been renting. Renting = no hooks in walls, no painting, no removing ugly blinds or carpet etc etc. I am not complaining about the house we have called home for the past 4 years but Boy Oh Boy am I excited about decorating the new place!!!

Starting with the little kids rooms I am having a ball decorating. Now there is no need to go 'crazy' and completely start from scratch. Both Milla and Harris have a colour scheme/theme for the bits and pieces they have currently.
Harris = Nautical/Pirate and Milla = Whimsical/birdie
so I have just, let's say "added" to their rooms *wink, wink*

We are yet to actually move into the house (5 sleeps to go) so I don't want to get ahead of myself and promise exactly what the rooms will look like after I play so in the mean time here is a little sneak peak at what I have bought, what they already had and what I would like to get.


Milla's room: Lime green, mint green, purple, lilac and whimsical....


Harris' room: Red, Blue and a touch of black. Yo ho ho It's a Pirates life for me....
