Favourites of 2008, part 7, Childrens rooms

Ok, seems you wanted more... Here are my favourite childrens rooms, and coming up later is a post with work spaces. One commenter wished for outdoor spaces, but I'm sorry, I don't do gardens/patios. I live in an apartment, and have no dreams of having a house with a garden, so I just skip those pictures when I stumble upon them. Sorry.

As you can see, my tastes in kids rooms is a bit more colourful than for other rooms. I love to decorate kids rooms with vintage furniture, which is also pretty smart since it's cheaper, and we all know that the young ones aren't always so careful with their belongings, so there is no point in lashing out a fortune on stuff that will only last a couple of years, and will be scratched in a matter of days.
Also, i think maps are great in childrens room. Educational and decorative at the same time! Add a big soft rug, lots of storage options and space to display and store toys and craft material, and a book shelf, and you're all done!

I love the colors in the second picture. The paper lantern is a fun touch in the other picture. I'm actually thinking of putting one up in my bedroom.

I love the colors in the third photo, the one with the big yellow chair? Where did you find this image? I also love that stuffed animal toy of the rabbit in the green dress (on the right) and I would love to get more information about it.
Thanks!

Thanks everybody!

Jean, I don't know where I found the picture, but the chair is the Pastil by Eero Aarnio, and the bunny is a Dutch children's book character called Miffy, very popular throughout Europe. The authors name is Dick Bruna.

Hi, I have been searching the net for a world map for a very long time. Could you please tell me where you got the map in the first bedroom image.
Kind regards,
Grace
