How To Make Your Childs’ Room their Sanctuary

Meeting with children to decorate their rooms has always been one of my favorite things to do as an Interior Designer. I am fascinated by how diverse their minds are, what lofty ideas come to their little minds and how EXCITED they get when their room is done! It’s very rewarding for me to go through this process. Whether its for newborn babies or teenages, there is a challenge to make that child feel secure, safe and at home in their own room.

It is my new focus at my business to recommend to all my clients furnishings and finishes in our homes that will make a safer environment for our families.

It is an epic FAIL that some people may not actually see but KNOW that something isn’t right. It has to do with having furniture in your room which have legs on everything…I see this issue a lot in homes that have wood floors. People forget that you need to alter the view on the bottom third of the room.
