Hello, and welcome to Blogs for Digs: " My childhood bedroom was..." creating awareness and benefiting
Dwell for Dignity. As an interior designer, I believe in Dwell with Dignity's mission, to help the less fortunate families create a warm and beautiful home to escape poverty and homelessness through design one household at a time.
My childhood bedroom was not my ideal bedroom, but nonetheless I had great memories of it. My childhood bedroom was in Aruba, it was a brand new house that my parents built and it already came decorated for us with walnut paneled walls and a creamy yellow boucle window treatment. I had to share the room with my brother, and had no say in how I wanted to decorate my bedroom, or in furniture choices. The piece of furniture that I really wanted was a bunk bed. I thought that a bunk bed was the coolest thing ever, that we could climb up and down the bed. Sadly my mom opposed it. She thought is was dangerous for us kids. So I grew up with no bunk bed, but with walnut wood panels.
If I could have decorated my room it would look more like this:
With Lilac striped walls
This bunk bed.
This ceiling Pendant.
And with this Lilac drapes.
Kids bedroom that are inspiring me now:
A very girly room, got to love that chandelier and that wallpaper is to die for!
