Bedrooms Built for Big Dreams by katy danos | photos by joshua brasted

C hildren see the world very differently than we do. They infuse wonder, imagination, and a little bit of magic into everything they do. An enchanting bedroom, intentionally planned with plenty of open floor space for creative playtime, encourages budding artists and tiny adventurers to while away their days at independent play. To strike a balance between practical matters such as clothes storage, a cozy place to lay a weary head, and toy organization, choose simple furnishings that can do double

duty. A trunk can easily become a game table and a crib that converts to a toddler bed is well worth the investment. Doses of whimsy and happy colors that can flex and grow as your child matures is the perfect way to decorate for tiny tenants. Age appropriate books, games, and interactive toys stimulate young minds and are loads of fun. Spotlighted here are three bedrooms that are sure to bring out the inner child in all of us. Dream big, little ones.

Up, Up, and Away
