I love how you think of how she can change the room as she outgrows the child-like elements, but honestly as a 29 year old I would LOVE to have this room lol. I absolutely adore the light and the animal knobs in the dresser! I will say I’m kind of sad I didn’t see purple incorporated much, but glad Sloan still loved the pink!

Very savvy and sweet of you to wear glasses for your little client who wears glasses! The room looks great! Harper and Avery are both great names! Sloan is ADORABLE and so HAPPY! As a parent, I have to say I wish I had thought "double bed" for my son when he transitioned. When kids need mom at night, a double bed is a much more comfy option. It also looks like it is a safer "trampoline"! LOL! You owe Sloan a new teddy, otherwise, great job!

@ShallaBal82 4 года назад

The whole room was WAAAAY too grown up for the girl. I had a twin bed until I was 16, and only got a double because the twin's mattress had springs starting to poke out of the fabric. That chest of drawers was far too big for her (what two year old can fill that with clothes?), and all the accessories didn't take into account the little girl's height. She can't reach her own toys in those big baskets or on those high shelves. I get it - it looked great, but it's just not practical for a tiny person, nor did it take any of her likes into consideration.

@Jen321able 4 года назад

@@ShallaBal82 I agree besides the dresser part. Your wardrobe can grow. And some kids do have a lot of clothes. But the room does look too mature for her.

@VsLeo1 4 года назад

Maridel Weaver not every kid gets into everything. I never had to move things around my house, my kids never gravitated towards things they shouldn’t touch. We always had plenty of toys and books out and rotated to keep them interested and it worked fine, although I know that we may have just been lucky. 😅

@middlelle 4 года назад

Vanessa Leonard Yes, you were lucky. Once the second child starts crawling, I’d recommend either a smaller plant, or putting this one on some sort of pedestal to keep it from her.

@kamilajabonska2026 4 года назад

I absolutely love the idea of putting birds on a wicker lamp. It's whimsical and cute but the change is not irreversible. Also those nobs! I don't have a two year old but I need them. Great job at making the room look cute and cozy, but also sth that will transition well as a kid grows up!

@lilisz1433 4 года назад

So many people just gravitate toward something tasteless and disney-themed just to please the little one, but this is soo so so so much fun, it's playful, it's EVERYTHING! There's so much to explore and cherish, and yet it's not too busy or serious. You really did it, again🙂

@akiwiincanada 4 года назад

I agree. This might be a kid's room, but it shares decor with the rest of the house and her parents have to look at it every single day too. And designing it for a longer term makes sense to me ... busy parents don't have time to be making over the house every two years, or the money to be replacing furniture. Not everyone likes thrifted. Shame there wasn't more purple though ... Ikea has some smashing purple stuff this season, Alexandra could have had fun with that.

@OrganizeCreateDecorate 4 года назад

I'm a Grammy. I've seen many children's bedrooms decorated to suit their Mom's. Though this is a beautiful room, I have to agree with others it's not what she asked for. My friends had no say what so ever ever into their teens how their rooms were decorated. Sad really. Two might seem a little young to understand design, but this little girl knew what she wanted. Though I do think she was coached to say bohemian. My Mom gave me full rein on my rooms. From hot pink and red, then to orange and soft pink when I took over my sister room when she went off to college when I was ten. At sixteen still I wanted blue with white starred curtains and bedding and red walls. I got it. When our own daughter wanted bright yellow walls with a sky blue ceiling, she got it. She and I have now decorated her daughters bedroom and bathroom just like she wanted it. I believe this teaches a child from an early age to be themselves, be creative. The skies the limit!

@shishkebab6267 4 года назад

You put what I was thinking into the best possible words. Thank you for this. Showing a kid that what she wants and what she says is actually taken into consideration is such an amazing lesson early on. They have a voice and a mind. They can choose what they want. Kids opinions are often overlooked by their parents and its sad really

@ebtor 4 года назад

I completely agree! Despite being young and there being a possibility that she changed her mind while changes were being made, the room does not read at all to be something she would want. It's important for children to feel heard while growing up.

@OrganizeCreateDecorate 4 года назад

@@shishkebab6267 Thank you. I was so blessed to have a Mom that taught me to express myself early on. It's stayed with me my whole life. I've always had an "I can do anything attitude when it comes to creativity and more.

@OrganizeCreateDecorate 4 года назад

@@ebtor Yes, very important. Though they shouldn't always get their own way, if you ask for their opinion, an adult should really listen. If their idea is too outlandish, talk it over, come to a compromise you both are happy with. If you don't want anyone to see their oddly colored and decorated room, shut the door when you have guests. Little things like this do more for your child than buying them all the latest toys.

I love the lack of seizure-inducing "vibrant" colors - bedrooms should be calming... and also great job acknowledging that the colors kids say they LOVE and 100% want on their walls are *suddenly their least favorite colors 5 minutes later.* They're dinosaurs then they're astronauts then they're princesses and then on to cowboys... if you try to accommodate that with bedroom decor and color it would never end-just give them a beautiful, comfortable canvas and let them fill it with artwork and trinkets that reflect their interests of the moment ;)

everyone saying there should've been more purple...kids change their favorite color every other day. notice how she said she doesnt like red yet she has red glasses lol. the mom probably didn't want the hassle of changing the room color. and they used a lot of her old decor that matches pink more than purple. ANYWAY, sloan is precious.

@sofiarodriguez6768 4 года назад

Yeah she can't really control what glasses her parents get her. Nor which color is on the wall. I mean the argument I see most is her glasses but its like realistically her mom just grabbed a pair she thought was cute knowing she liked purple not really caring about the red part. Also there's different shades of purple and the circle could have had the adult dusty purple color instead of a dusty rose. It's not a big deal but I see why people are sad about it.

Also, PLEASE tell me where you got your lilac footed bowl on your bookshelves. I went back and watched a bunch of videos of yours to find a source, but couldn't!

It’s so cute! But where is the purple:(? -I haven’t finished the video yet so maybe it’s coming but I’m 3 quarters through and no purple for Sloan yet

@natiburnspurple64 4 года назад

I was just about to ask the same thing! 😂 She clearly wanted purple somewhere.

@CathyS_Bx 4 года назад

It's a beautiful and functional room. Still, I'm all grown up and I'm crying in disappointment that the child did not get her purple or her teddy bears. At least they could have added a purple bedspread and some teddy bear decals on the dresser. Also, a child can get hurt on protuberant drawer hardware. This very thing came up in a British competitive decorating show. Not gonna lie, my main reaction is WTF?

maybe the big circle painted in purple will look great too.

If you rewatch the beginning if the video, Alexandra asked her what she wanted, they were sitting in the finished room already.

I also wanted to add that I like the plant. Children can be taught to care for plants in their room I was a preschool teacher and I had plants in my room and the children really enjoyed them.

I am surprised by there the bed were placed, it took up the while room! Were is the play area?

That's a pretty big room. I see lots of room to play. But I'm going to guess that she has a play room in the house.

She's 2 - I think you got things wrong this time: the very sharp points on the animal knobs, the plant. Huge no......(sigh). She does not need sophistication, grown decor.....

Shes probably going to fall out of the bed. If it doesnt have rails. My 3 year old has a toddler bed & still falls out. But her bed is pretty much floor level.

@@isabelleer7501 Thrifting furniture is an option. It's ridiculous that a 2 year old couldn't even get anything in a color she wanted. Also consumer waste is not impacting the world at anything besides a fraction of large scale corporations destroying our planet.

I fricken love this channel so much! I love the makeover. I think you knew what would work for Sloan as I am sure you and her mother discussed what would be practical and what wouldn't which is why you chose the things that you did. And seeing as you're good friends you probably know them much better than a viewer does and you know what would've worked and what wouldn't have. Keep up the good work!
