colourful kids bedrooms

There are some kids rooms you come across that instantly bring a big smile to your face. They evoke a feeling of happiness by their cuteness and their super bright colour scheme.

There is something refreshing about seeing a kids room where there are no rules, where a load of colours have been thrown together and almost anything goes. I’m not talking about the odd pop of colour or a few complimentary shades – I mean rooms where there is practically every colour under the sun!

If you’re thinking of brightening up your children’s rooms then these colourful kids rooms will definitely inspire you and they’ll also add a ray of sunshine to your day!

Starting a business after having a baby is something that has become very popular over the last decade or so. So much so that the term “mumpreneur” is now part of the dictionary (though I’m not a fan of the word). Many mothers with young kids find that returning to employment isn’t always practical but starting a business is because it offers far more flexibility. 

If you’re thinking of starting a business as a new mum or a stay at home mum of young kids it’s a great way to work around your family while earning an income. But turning your dream into a successful business takes careful planning and a clear idea of what steps you need to take. From finding your idea to handling the day-to-day, here’s the practical stuff that you should know. Whether you’re just getting started or hoping to grow your business, understanding key money matters (e.g. your merchant processing statement or your taxes) is important for long-term success.

Bringing a baby into your life is is one of the greatest joys ever. But what often catches new parents off guard is just how much stuff comes along with them. One minute, your living room is perfectly put together, and the next, it’s overflowing with bright plastic toys. That sleek hallway? Now it’s home to some mysterious contraption you can’t quite figure out. It’s easy to feel like your home’s vibe is getting swallowed up by an avalanche of baby gear. But don’t worry, it doesn’t have to be that way. With a bit of planning and some smart choices, you can have a home that’s both beautiful and totally practical for your little one.

Starting a family can be one of the most meaningful experiences you will have. These days, as many people begin their families during their thirties and forties, they enter the parenting phase with years of life experience and confidence.

Taking the time to develop a plan as you prepare to become a parent slightly later in life will provide you with a solid foundation for the next steps and will make it easier to enjoy this time and look forward to being optimistic about what the future may hold.

I’m always looking for creative and interesting ways to refresh a room or to give it a new lease of life without spending much. One easy way of doing this is to paint the walls a different colour or wallpaper the room or even wallpaper just one wall in the room. Or you could simply move the furniture around the room, add a few new cushions or swap out the bedding and it will instantly look quite different.

Recently though I came across some really amazing painted floors and thought it was such a fun way to refresh a room and give it a new look. This idea could work in any room where you don’t have carpet but I think it works especially well in a kids room. Depending on your interior style, you can choose to be as bold as you dare or as subtle as you want. And the best part is that with a little effort you can keep updating the look as your child grows up and their tastes change.

I love having friends over for dinner but even with years of hosting under my belt, it can sometimes still get stressful! I’ve learned that the best way to avoid any stress is by sticking to a few simple rules and when I do this not only does the whole evening feel more relaxed but I enjoy myself so much more.

Plan the Menu

My biggest piece of advice here is stick to something you’ve cooked a few times before and you feel comfortable making. This can be something elaborate and involved or something very simple like a one pot main. The key is that it should be something you can make easily and for different people with different cooking abilities this will differ hugely. Don’t be tempted to try new dishes because that will almost certainly end up being stressful!

Gallery walls are always a good ideas as they look great. I’m considering one for my living room but I think they look fab in any room especially a kids room where you can have so much fun creating one. It’s a great way to update a room that needs a bit of love or just change the look for a new season.

The most obvious way to create a gallery wall is to display lots of shop bought framed prints or even just a few if you prefer a cleaner look. Alternatively large panoramic canvas prints are great for creating a focal point on a wall and they also add a personal touch as you can display a favourite family memory or moment. You can then add smaller prints or other wall hangings around it to create a gallery look.

There are plenty of other creative ways to create gallery walls and some cost almost nothing. You can simply frame your kids artworks to make a very unique gallery wall or you don’t even have to use art. Some of the cutest gallery walls I’ve seen use objects and decorations and even clothes.

In case you’re looking for inspiration to get started, here are a few fun and unusual ideas on how to create a gallery wall in a kids bedroom:

Mums are superheroes, yet sometimes the daily grind of routines, responsibilities, and school runs can feel exhausting.

Mums can reclaim their bold, beautiful selves through this approach. Below are some ways mums everywhere can reclaim themselves:
