Elsa's Furniture, Old and New

Elsa's furniture is a mix of new and refurbished pieces. We decided to invest in a sturdy well-made (in Quebec) bassinet (www.anaya.ca) which will transform into a small bed later on, as well as classic white bedding (www.boutonjaune.com).

The changing table and book shelves on the other hand, were old pieces we already owned which we repainted in a soft cream white colour. The lazy-boy belonged to my grandmother but did not fit with the decor so we had it reupholstered in a great polka dot pattern and my mom (so crafty!) sewed the matching drapes and cushions.







Elsa's White & Cream Dreams / Before and After

Not knowning if we were going to have a boy or a girl (a deliberate decision we made which made Elsa’s arrival an even more exciting event), we decided to create a neutral colour scheme of whites and creams for Elsa’s bedroom.
