Hello, my beautiful nursery

Vava voom, we ramping up our little corner in the nursery. For the longest time, it looked like a naughty corner for us adults. We have moved our comfy beanbag from our living room here (It is from Softrock and you can read all about our review here!) But apart from the beanbag, everything was baby-ish.

Took a little bit of effort but yea, with a nice coffee table and rug (both from Ikea by the way), we now have a reading corner where we can sit and eyeball baby on a good day. Other days, baby is just bouncing around on the beanbag, feeling very much like a superhero. 


One of the highlights in our nursery is this customised piece for our little boy. It is from Kayithj and the theme is "3 Little Pigs". There is quite a lot of customisation options, change the colour and words etc. It is an inside joke that's why our customised words are "Riding of Wheels of Fire". The price is slightly on the steep side at $80, but the print is truly gorgeous

And so is the frame. My only grouse would the frame doesn't give with a string at the back to hang. Now, it is lying on the ground because we can't really decide which wall should it go on. Sometimes I would place it at his pig sty just to tease him a little. As a mother, I would say it is actually quite dangerous to leave pieces like this on the ground but my boy doesn't have that itchy fingers, lucky me!


This is how chilling looks like now LOL, but in reality it is hard to read pass a few pages. Speaking of books, Kayithj sells really beautiful book sleeves as well (I have done a review so you can read about it here.) Am really excited about the nursery now and can't wait to host my play dates. 

If you know of any nice scandi-looking kids furniture, do hit me up :D I am starting to enjoy this home deco series a lot.

Updates on my living room!

The thing about having your own house is that you can finally design/ deco the house the way you want them. Am not sure about you guys but I have always fantasize about having my own beanbag. Never got one in my earlier years because my parents practically don't really let me buy any big ticket items to put in my bedroom (sad life).

There are a few considerations when it comes to choosing your own beanbag (i) design (including size and colours), comfort and most importantly whether the covers are removable. Now that I have a baby, having removable covers are very crucical because babies spill/ puke milk everywhere. Particularly if you are feeding breastmilk which attracts tons of ants, you should try to ensure your important fabrics can be removed and washed!


My beanbag is from Softrock and we love it! It is our very first furniture in the living room and even now that the place is being furnished with a sofa, this beanbag is still my (and our guests') favourite. We are perpectually playing musical chair to fight who gets to sit on it. If you are not into the typical round shape, you should really check out Softrock as they have beanbags that are of different designs. Mine is the Bohemian ($399) which allows you to recline

They have a nice selection of block colours to choose from and is very easy to match your house's design. The Bohemian has a slit at the side for you to place your remote control though we don't really use it much often. You can easily remove the covers and throw it into the washing machine for a good wash. The fabric doesn't shrink too!


Although beanbags generally are not very good for postures, this one is so comfy I can't care less. As you can see, even our little kiddo is a fan of this beanie. He really enjoys sitting on it while watching the cars zoom by. He still can't sit unassisted so we have to watch him lest he falls. Each beanbag comes with one free rejuvenation of the pellets to ensure your comfort an also a year's guarantee against manufacturer's defects.

Softrock is retailing on Mrphy which is a designer brand that the Hubs and I have grown to love because of its quirky design. Apart from the bean bags, Mrphy holds lots of home accessories and deco. Even for the most mundane thing such as a toilet bowl brush, Mrphy has the most amazing designs that brings both character to the house and a smile to our face. :P
