Just before Christmas I unveiled two very different Farmhouse room boards I had been working on for a mom getting ready to move her young daughter and baby into a room together. I showed you both designs, but I only ever gave you the source list for the Modern Farmhouse.
Oops!
Let’s check out the Old Fashioned Farmhouse look as well:
I’ve waited so long to share this source list, a few of the items are no longer available online. If you are interested in a piece and can not find it, please let me know and I will try and find you a suitable alternative.
1. Circo Sweetie Bedding Set $20 ~ Clearance (no longer available online)
2. Torva Strawberry $5
3. Garanimals Crib Sheets – Green $13
4. Linnarp Desk $119
5. Byholma Chest $60
6. Stornas Buffet $399
7. Brentwood Tuscany Crib $190
8. Sumersault Square Rug ~ no longer available
9. Landet Farmhouse w/ animals $20
10. Duktig Veggie Set $8
11. Sweet Pickins Fabrics
Just a note: When purchasing from IKEA, use caution. Always check the quality of the item before you buy. Sometimes things that look great online can be of poor quality when you see them in person. Just use your best judgement when shopping there, plenty of fab finds mixed in with some junk.
There are 11 of you waiting for room boards of your own right now.
I HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN YOU, I’ll post a list on my sidebar so you can keep track and see what number you are. I’m going to shoot for sharing 3 room boards a month, this is something I enjoy doing for others so I want to make it a priority.

Todd Oldham’s Kid Made Modern is coming to Target,
and I just can’t wait!
This creative line of colorful and modern kid art supplies is nothing, if not inspiring.
I already have big plans for these graphic duct tapes,
and my geology, gem crazed kids will be thrilled to get their hands on these crayon jewels!
The Kid Made Modern line by Todd Oldham
will be available at Target May 20th.
Find out more on Bulls Eye View
Until May …
I’ll be letting my creativity run wild and dreaming up all sorts of projects for us to do together! Hmm, maybe a KSW first? A collaborative kids craft project maybe, what do you think?

Helping folks design their children’s rooms is turning out to be one of my all-time favorite things to do! I’m thrilled to have had several opportunities lately to brighten up the lives of a few special children and it’s about time I shared all of the fun with you.
The Modern Farmhouse
This particular room was designed especially for a 4 year old girl and a baby boy who were going to start sharing a room. The mother wanted a farm theme and was considering paintings some rolling hills and blue skies on the walls. As soon as she mentioned her plan for the mural my thoughts drifted to this crazy cool rug from Ikea ($8). The rest of the room just sort of evolved from there. The Trofast storage piece makes a genius changing table and storage piece for the room and will grow with the kids changing from diapering and baby needs to toys down the road.
THE OLD FASHIONED FARMHOUSE
I created the second board just in case she had more of an old fashioned farmhouse feel in mind. The inspiration for this room — these sweetie pie sheets from Target ($40). The yellow fabric swatch on the left is for curtains and the fabric sampler on the right is for a one of a kind rag quilt I was planning to make myself.
Sadly, I never heard back from this mom. Not all of my free services are received with open arms, but sometimes they are! I’ll share all my source info for these two room boards next, and then show you another project that had a MUCH, MUCH happier ending! I shared these two boards because I thought someone out there might love them.
Which one is your personal favorite:
Modern or Old Fashioned Farmhouse?
WANT A FREE DESIGN OF YOUR OWN?

I have a few people in line ahead of you and do these whenever I have free time, so please send me an email or leave a comment on the blog or Facebook describing the space you need help with and any ideas you have already.
