Here are some mudroom inspiration pics:

Playroom ideas

This is going to be the playroom:
Eek! We removed the carpet, pad and particle board (yeah, i know) underneath and fixed the leaky roof. Once we close on the house we are going to work on ceiling. Here are a few inspiration pics for the room:
Paint birch tree silhouettes on walls. Similar to this decal.

Add cute woodland animals here and there.

Love this wall of books and the ledge shelving idea!

I love the doll house book shelf and storage cube wall!
This was my original inspiration but when we looked at the color swatches in person it was way too bright and contrasting for us. Going with more muted walls and adding color in with everything else.

Front door

We have decided on a navy blue door. Since the house is white (dirty white) we like the contrast with the navy and we are going to get an anchor door knocker. Here are some images I found to get the feeling.





Little bean is getting so big!

Our daughter turns 6 months on Monday! Time really does go fast. She love her veggies.
