KAIA'S ROOM: THE PLAN AND A SNEAK PEEK!

A new tween room is coming! It’s been a long time since we last revealed a room and this one coming up next belongs to one of my favourite people ever; my daughter Kaia! So many of you have been curious how we’d address the girls’ rooms in our newest rental house, now that they’ve grown from their shared room in our last house.

With the move to Rental House #3, both girls have their very own rooms for the first time! The timing couldn’t have been better (they are 11 years old!) and although there are still sleepovers in each others’ rooms, there actually haven’t been as many as I thought there may be and both kids are loving the new space and privacy that comes with a room of your own.

One of the fun things about designing older kids rooms is that the kids themselves love to be involved. Kaia had some very firm ideas on this space and while she got the pendant light from the last room, she picked this fun and playful wallpaper herself as well as asking for a desk, pinboard and one of those hanging swing chairs.

Here’s an in progress sneak peek below. All the fun accessories (hello hanging chair, wall art, pillows, etc.) are still to come.

The Plan:

Like all good plans, some items are subject to change. This design board is similar to what’s presented to a client on presentation day; it’s a great way to showcase the key items for a space all pulled together to give the overall look and feel of the room.

Since the full reveal is still weeks away (the delays have been looong for some items), today we’re sharing the key items that make up this tween room so that you can shop the room for yourself!
