OCTOBER 2006 - Ok this is the reality: we live in NYC, so dwellings tend to be small. Our apartment is a 1-bedroom with a sleeping loft and since the baby can't stay in the loft we will share the bedroom with her until she's 1 or 2 years old. To stimulate the little one I patinted the walls very light green (almost minty but not glaring) using Sherwin Williams'
zero-VOC Harmony paint (www.sherwinwilliams.com) and applied those really cool colorful adhesive dots (Dottilicious by WallCandy Arts www.wallcandyarts.com). I also installed some shelving (I had to customize by purchasing wood cut to size at Home Depot). We also placed the Pablo Elise lamp (www.pablodesigns.com) in the room since it has a dimmer that gives the room a nice glow. A Tolomeo spot lamp (www.artemide.us) was also installed for bedside reading without the bulk of a standard floor lamp or table lamp. The bassinet is the Stokke Sleepi system (www.stokkeusa.com/sleepi.htm). This bassinet turns into a crib, a toddler bed and two chairs as it grows with the kid (www.stokkeusa.com/sleepi4.htm).Why do scandinavians excel in furniture design?
Last but certainly not the least, meet Bubbles the cat by Blabla, knitted by Peruvian artisans (www.blablakids.com/).
