little spaces: Benjamin's nursery

by Danni Remender

This is what your nursery would look like if your mum is the talented artist, Adriane Duckworth.  Also, you can see the wonderful little play nook that was created in the living area.

"This room has gone through some changes since we first designed it when we were expecting him, and it will surely go through more changes as time goes on. We try to keep the colour scheme fairly neutral and monochromatic, while including lots of pops of colour through toys and accessories. I plan on painting this room white soon (it's currently a very pale blue) and I may paint the ceiling black, but we'll see!"

Thanks so much for sharing  Ben's nursery and playroom space with us, Adriane.

new, 2013 bumbleride

by Summer

The new year always brings a new season of design & color. One of which I am quite excited about .. Bumbleride's 2013 collection.

Bumbleride has simplified their line quite a bit, offering 3 strollers (Indie, Indie Twin & Flite) in 5 colors with the accessories to match. The 2013 colors are strong, thankfully. I'm sure we can all appreciate the deeper colors as strollers seem to inevitably get quite messy!

And if you don't need the latest greatest, the Bumbleride 2012 Models are on sale...

party, numbered birthday cake

by Summer

It's the sheer simplicity of this party idea that gets me: using a cookie cutter as the stensil to dump sprinkles into! A number for a kid's cake is perfect.

Bravo This Little Life of Mine!

diy, painted harlequin

by Summer

Clever idea of the week: paint a harlequin pattern on the wall of your kid's room. I think it's a lot of fun, and equally love the variation in color and that it doesn't cover the entire wall.

Agreed: a white Tripp Trapp by Stokke looks gorgeous most anywhere.

love, auggie sleepsacks

by Summer

The sleepsack was one of the great discoveries of my 3rd baby. Not sure what took me so long, because sleepsacks are truly amazing. I would dress Isac in a longsleeve tee, leaving his sweet little legs bare in the sleepsack. Middle of the night diaper changes can be done half-asleep, simply unzip and change. No pajama/button fumble, phew!

I love these Auggie Sleepsacks we have in, worth every penny.
