KidKraft Limited Edition Toy Box

We're gearing up to redecorate Savannah's room. There are a few items that she really wants included in the re-design - but she is adamant on a bench. She use to have a plastic toy box/bench that sat at the foot of hear bed, near her window. She had a blanket folded neatly on top of the bench and would sit in the sunlight and read from her favorite books. She remembers those moments fondly - and her daddy has brought up the memories he has of walking by and seeing that picture.

I think his recollection is what more prompts her to want another bench - but whatever the case, I think they are adorable. One of my picks for this piece of furniture is the KidKraft Limited Edition Toy Box. I love the curvature of the back which reminds me a lot of the bench I had in my room when I was little.

BeddingStyle Giveaway!

This Spring, as I replaced the bedding on my children's beds to their Summer sheets - I noticed that they could each use new comforters when the cold weather returned. This thought left my mind and I forgot to put this on my list of things to accomplish.

Fortunately, Beddingstyle.com contacted me with this review and giveaway opportunity. I know that if I hadn't had this fun reminder then I would have completely forgotten until I pulled their heavy comforters out of the storage closet this week.

Joey and Savannah had a lot of fun choosing their new bedding to fit their style and personality.  I found it funny that neither of them chose anything that was much different than their current patterns and colors.  I must know my babies well!

Joey chose the Tommy Hilfiger Hamilton Comforter.  Previously, Joey had a plain dark blue comforter - but his favorite color combination is red, white and blue.  So this fits his personality and his current room decor.

Savannah chose the Tommy Hilfiger Rose Cottage Comforter.  Her room is currently styled with shabby chic colors - and this fit perfectly with her furniture and curtains.

Storage Space and Your Bedroom - Platform Beds!

If your home is anything like the Incredible Household, you need to use space wisely. Sure we have a large enough home for four people to share comfortably, but oh the stuff... where do families these days put all of their stuff?  We don't have any type of linen or hall closet... So I like to use the space under each bed for a linen tote.  Under each bed is a tote that holds the extra pillow cases and sheets for that particular bed. 

Remarkably enough, my children weren't born with an inherent need to organize and return everything to its rightful spot. They love to push things under the bed. If you can't see it, I guess it's 'put away', right? I know your kids put everything away... so you won't need this solution.

I've decided, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! Well, at least in my mind. Use the space underneath the beds as storage and organizing space. The best way to utilize this is by having beds that will cooperate with you. They can't be too low. You'll need a platform bed!

Platforms beds are great for underneath storage as they are raised and flat.  No springs, etc... for your items underneath to become tangled on.

I love the platform beds that sit high enough for decorative storage baskets and totes to slide comfortably underneath.  This storage platform bed is great for kids rooms and homes or apartments where storage space is limited.  The built in storage feature in a necessary bedroom piece solves two issues at once.

It also gives the room a clean and well organized appearance, which is what your child is striving to achieve in the first place, right?  Maybe that's just my children, or I'm dreaming again!  At least this way, they are allowed to put things under the bed during clean up time.

  The ideal piece for Mr. Incredible and myself would be the California king size platform bed.  Though we could also use the storage space, the size of the bed is what matters for us.  Yes, we do like to cuddle... so pushing him over to his side of the bed isn't the issue! Though maybe he does push me to my side, I don't know.  I'm told I snore.  The real issue is that only two of us climb into bed at night, yet somehow we wake up with two little munchkins in the morning.  It would be great to have the added width to keep us all from being 'so close'.
