my room: suze

Girls bedroom white floorboardsThis gorgeous girl’s bedroom belongs to Suze who is six years old. She lives with her mum and dad in a renovated farmhouse in Susteren, the Netherlands.

Suze’s room was designed by her mum Odyvet, an interiors stylist who runs styling workshops and high tea events from her beautiful home.

For kids’ rooms Odyvet prefers a white background to keep things looking fresh and breezy and make colours and accessories “pop”. Good looking toy baskets keep the room organised and tidy. An extra large wardrobe can be used for both clothes and general storage. This way you don’t need any other storage furniture, which keeps the room feeling spacious.

Time to get to know Suze a bit better now! Tell us Suze,

♥ What is your favourite food? I love small bites like olives, bruschetta, pasta, chicken skewers. And mum’s high teas are the best!

♥ What are you into right now? Dressing up, drawing and crafting.

♥ What is your favourite colour? Gold and pink.

♥ Your favourite animal? A cat.

♥ And your favourite book? The Princes Lillifee books and The Adventures of Pim & Pom.

♥ Skirts or trousers? Skirts and dresses – I love wearing dresses with bare legs in summer.

♥ What do you want to be when you grow up? I want to teach drawing and look after cats.

♥ What is your favourite thing in your room? The super soft rug next to my bed and my trapeze.

♥ Which is your favourite duvet cover? I have two: one with a princess dress and one with cats.

♥ Your favourite pyjamas? The one with the cats.

Thank you Suze, it was great to meet you!

Find out how to decorate a gender neutral nursery with my 8 decorating tips over on My Baba.
