We used to have a guest room. Now we have a Best Room (half baby room/half guest room) – all hand made and dragon themed, of course! Here are some shots of the awesomeness:
It was surprisingly difficult to decide on decor for a baby’s room-slash-guest room, but I think we found a happy balance (I only cried two or three times!). There’s a baby sleeping device and a dresser along the back wall (beside the rocker), and some short bookshelves under the handmade wall.
We also used some things that Husband & I had saved from our own childhoods – Bugs Bunny, for example, was mine way back in the day, and the Pac Man lunchbox & Glow Worm were Husband’s. In the end, the room turned into a nice mixture – some hand made things, some new things, some vintage things, and some repurposed things. Considering the small amount of space, the fact that we couldn’t do any major renovations since we’re renters, and the dual-use this room’s going to see, I’m pleased with how it turned out. And, honestly, baby boy isn’t going to remember living here anyway, so I’m pretty sure we could have just slapped some sheets in a laundry basket & he’d be happy. =)
Love the name ‘Best Room’ and that you guys incorporated things from your childhood.. very sweet!
Dragons! That is such a great theme for a baby’s room. I love it when people choose such unique themes!
