my room: amélie

romantic boho girls bedroom amelieThis romantic, boho girl’s bedroom belongs to Amélie who is three years old. She lives with her mum Maaike, dad Onno and sister Sara in a refurbished church in de Tijnje, The Netherlands.

Amélie’s room was designed by her mum Maaike who is a visual merchandiser & window dresser. You can admire Maaike’s talent for visual composition over on her Instagram feed @fleursdamelie, where she shares photos of her amazing home and the girls’ bedrooms. I love the soft colours and pretty boho feel of Amélie’s room, which features gorgeous oversized floral wallpaper.

Maaike’s advice for designing children’s rooms is to keep the base calm and the bed and other furniture light, then you can use accessories to add colour and atmosphere. Quirky details add character, and wallpaper is great for setting the mood.
