I think as a MOM whenever we see something that could potentially harm our kids or someone else's kids we try to voice our opinions and concerns, not because we want to be in someone else's business but because we are mothers and it is part of our instincts.
Like I said before there are better ways to do it then what I read yesterday, just because we might not have the same common sense as other parents, but as a community of readers we could help each other to maybe see what we are doing might be a little dangerous.
It has happened to me when I see a mom on the phone with a shopping cart at the parking lot and the cart starts to roll away, it makes me think "what is wrong with you?" or when they leave their kids in a hot car? We are almost obliged to say something for the safety of the kids, but what we have to remember is the way we say things.
But yes this is a design blog, and it is a design contest that it was entered to, but you cannot expect for readers to see something like that and just say "wow great idea and good use of extra space" when in our hearts we are worrying about their kids!

but harsh words make tempers flare."

Very pretty and creative!! I love that aqua dresser, can you tell me if you painted it yourself, if so what did you use and how?

Thanks!!

The Weleda shampoo, it smells so good and leaves their hair so soft and shiny.
The Weleda calendula face lotion especially here in the winter it is amazing!

I personally like Revere Pewter, check out this website, it gives you an idea of each BM color with furniture and light.
Hope it helps!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOPPER :-)

Is the bed next to the dresser from ikea? I know one is from Oeuf not sure if you just removed the bars? I've been debating on whether or not to buy a toddler bed or a twin size bed, I have a 2 year old and he's pretty tall. I also liked the kid Kraft bed:

Or this one from Pkolino:

Does anyone have these that could help me make a decision? Thanks.

Happy Birthday Juliet!
