I was so excited at the prospect of doing a shared room for the girls; I had always wanted a shared room with my sister growing up (we did get to live out our dream for about six months when we were in between selling and building our family home). The girls are at a really great age at the moment and they have been really enjoying doing things together so with a new baby on the way and my stubbornness in not wanting to give up the toy room it was a shared room for both of them that was on the agenda.
I really wanted their room to be somewhere that they would really enjoy, a tranquil place where they wanted to spend time together, we also really wanted the look of the room to be easily tweaked and transitioned as they grew and their interests/style evolved. The color palette has been made up of soft pinks, peach, mustards, whites, and some sage to keep the room feeling quite fresh and on-trend. We have quite a bit of timber as the feature in our home so we again carried this trend into their room with accents of rattan to keep with a boho theme whilst incorporating modern pieces in as well. I really wanted to maintain a soft look within the room and with the addition of the sheer curtains we were able to enhance the space and this has allowed all of the pieces within the room to really sing, we installed all our sheers with Dollar Curtains and Blinds over a year ago now and they have been the perfect addition to all of our bedrooms in the home . You can see from the mood board below that the room is quite a fun space for the little ladies to enjoy.

Some of you may know and some may not but our gorgeous little Blair was born at 29+1weeks at Monash Clayton due to many complications with my pregnancy with her it got to a stage where she was better out than in. The incredible team at Monash Children's hospital and the team within the NICU ward are the reason that we have our bouncy, beautiful girl with us today so to be able to work in line with Sarah, Sheree and to help raise awareness for the incredible work that the Monash Children's Hospital does.
The Brightest Star charity was established in 2019 in loving memory of Oisín David Sexton.
In May 2017, Sarah and Chris tragically lost their little boy Oisín at only 20 months of age, after a freak accident.
Sarah and Chris spent five days living every parent's nightmare at the Monash Children’s Hospital Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), where the Doctors and Nursing staff tried desperately to save Oisín’s life. Despite the best efforts from everyone, Oisín sadly lost his battle. Sarah and Chris whispered a lifetime worth of I love you’s in his ear, held him tight, and said goodbye to their darling little man.
The Brightest Star charity has been created by Oisín's parents, to honor the life of their beautiful little boy, who will always be held tightly in the hearts of all who knew him and will forevermore be the brightest shining star.
The Brightest Star is a foundation set up for Monash Health that helps to raise money and support for the Paediatric Ward within the Monash Children's Hospital they have been able to through their fundraising employed a practitioner to provide support to families experiences unfortunate outcomes during their stays at Monash Children's Hospital.
This room has honestly been a dream come true, the girls are both so besotted with their new space and it was so wonderful to see the joy on their little faces on the day we revealed it to them. I will let all of the reveal images speak for themselves because I know that is my favorite part about completing a new space.
Working with Sarah & Sheree was a dream come true and I am so eternally grateful for this generous gift they have given my girls and our family.

To each and every one of the brands involved in bringing this room to life; I simply cannot thank you enough for your generosity, kindness, and beautiful contributions towards this space for my two little ladies.
