NEUTRAL NURSERY - XAVIER'S LITTLE NEST

WINTER DAISY is so excited to reveal Xavier's little nest!! This space is airy, serene and fun - a dreamy place for reading books, playing with his sisters and sleeping peacefully. 

The inspiration for this room stems from nature; Xavier is his happiest exploring outside and I wanted to find a way to bring the outdoors in, while maintaining a soft, neutral and relaxed aesthetic.

A very special nursery reveal for a very precious little boy. Xavier sure looks like he's enjoying his nursery, don't you think?

LOVE THESE BOOTS!

Last week, the whole family got caught in the first real downpour of the season. Crazy, wet rain. Before heading out, we realized the girls' rain boots from last season no longer fit and the race to find a new pair before the real rain begins was on. When you live in a city where it rains an average of 1150 mm a year (twice the amount as London, England!), you have to be prepared for rain any day of the year. With sweet, fun colours to match any outfit, these boots will keep feet dry and create childhood memories of puddle-jumping fun. Now, bring on the rain!

Our girls have been begging for a tea party all summer. For 3-year-olds, they sure love a good party; the decorations, special food and most of all, having friends over. I didn't want to spend weeks preparing so kept it simple with tea cups, a teepee, cupcakes and magic wands. I sourced the tea cups from the thrift store and made the wands and cupcakes the night before. They were delighted!

I have a feeling there will be many more summer play dates over the years. What little things do you do to make play dates special and memorable for your little ones?
