    OMG Lisa!!! This came at the right time. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

    Hello from Llama-land! (Perú).

  4. Carly Friesen on June 27, 2021 at 2:06 am

    Multifunction items are a must! I have to agree with a couple of other commenters about the amount of "stuff" kids "need" and especially keeping it in a bedroom – does not make for relaxed kids and can instead be quite overwhelming. Mine are still little, but on the principle of good sleep hygiene, we use the bedroom for sleeping, dressing, and reading (part of nap and bed routines) only, and blackout curtains or shades are MUST! Playing and learning are done in other parts of the house. Because reading is part of our winding down routine, I do keep a basket of books in the baby’s room, and a 3-shelf bookshelf with books for my preschooler (use magazine holders to help corral skinnier books and use as bookends).

    Can you do a video on pet design in homes? Would love to hear some tips on how to make dog crates, play pens etc.. look nice and what merchandise you would recommend.

  6. Anne Murphy on June 27, 2021 at 2:10 am

    I hate I missed this live! I’m in the throes of designing a new bedroom for a 5-year-old little girl right now so this couldn’t be more timely.

  7. Elaine White on June 27, 2021 at 2:12 am

    What you doing! Your fading away, looks good!

  8. Elizabeth on June 27, 2021 at 2:12 am

    Performance oriented. I have two grandchildren, girls, each in their own room. One is 11, the other is 6. They are so close, you’d think they were twins. It’s usually competitive closeness. The younger always wants what the older one has. When ever I send a gift to the older. The younger wants one too, and same when I send a gift to the younger one. I wonder what their rooms look like. Their both advanced for their grades, and they actually clean their rooms! I loved your samples Lisa. I already have in mind things to send them, ie, wall hangings, throw rugs, framed pictures, vase of flowers, desk set, accent lights, ukelele, bean-bag chairs, etc…Thanks Lisa.

  9. Nadia O. on June 27, 2021 at 2:13 am

    Loved the video! In your next kids’ room installment, could you please touch on rooms for two children? In our case it’s my two little granddaughters, one is 4-1/2 years old and the other one is 1-1/2. My daughter is putting them in one bedroom so that the other bedroom can be used as a playroom for both girls. Thanks❣️

  10. HAYDEE O'NEILL MARTINEZ on June 27, 2021 at 2:17 am

    Thanks. Great ideas.

  11. Emma Dealey on June 27, 2021 at 2:18 am

    So fun!

  12. Stephanie Maloney on June 27, 2021 at 2:18 am

    Great ideas! Also, what about a hammock? We hung one over my son’s bed when he was about 8. Great place to read, or sleep on a hot night. Plus you can store it away if needed. Just be sure to anchor it to studs, not drywall.

  13. Elsa Jones on June 27, 2021 at 2:19 am

    Put a drain in the middle of the floor for periodic hosing down

  14. Alisa Meche on June 27, 2021 at 2:23 am

    My kids are older now but since I’m remodeling my childhood home the multi purpose bed idea I will absolutely use. What do you suggest paint wise on the wall that will be easy to clean? My daughter is incredibly smart and very artistic so I planned on one wall being the black chalkboard paint but not sure what color would look best with the chalkboard wall and she doesn’t care on the color of the walls but I do as a designer and want to go with my color themes throughout the home without duplicating any colors.

  15. Jill Herringshaw on June 27, 2021 at 2:25 am

    Fantastic ideas! This Gramma is inspired! Thank you, Lisa!

  16. R Monson on June 27, 2021 at 2:25 am

    Fabulous as always…but again distracted by your fabulous style and jewelry! LOVE that top with the stars! Brand may I ask? You always look so pulled together as I watch with bed head in my jammies! Goals…after coffee…☕😜

  17. Patricia SALDANHA on June 27, 2021 at 2:26 am

    Oh Lisa I just love this kiddie z room video ♥️ ( being one myself and shamefully proud of it ) 🧸🎨 – the tent idea is fantastic the dolls house 🎯 space and easel🖼 elements are really darling 🎀 the llamas are lovey dovey and I think these furniture pieces would do great in an artist’s Atelier – Perhaps not all will agree especially the old fogeys and other bogeymen but ceci n ‘ est pas grave -Thanks ever so much for this informative and cutely chubby video and take care ♥️🧸🙏🎇♥️ ♥️✨🙏

  18. Ann Brookens on June 27, 2021 at 2:29 am

    That one raised bed with drawers: didn’t it have a pullout desktop? I’ve never seen that before and it sounds pretty clever!

  19. brenda doyle on June 27, 2021 at 2:31 am

    I love the idea of loft beds but people need to be aware of their ceiling heights if you get a raised bed and the child can’t even sit up in bed maybe that needs to be re-thought before they purchase it

  20. Maya Chaoui on June 27, 2021 at 2:33 am

    I absolutely LOVE THIS!! Thank you so, SO much for making this video (I’m the one who messaged you on IG saying I have no idea what I’m doing with my daughter’s room). I’ve decided to go with a little farmer’s market theme (to teach sustainability and healthy practices)! This is going to help immensely with my project!

  21. Debra Rozich on June 27, 2021 at 2:34 am

    Love your channel and upbeat attitude. I always learn so much. Needed the help for my grandchildren’s room for this segment.

  22. rowan orre on June 27, 2021 at 2:34 am

    Joshua Becker has a great video on why less toys is way better for kids

  23. Gopony on June 27, 2021 at 2:35 am

    While those loft type beds are super cute I’m not sure I would want to climb up there to sit on their bed and read to them at night?

  24. Mimi Salas on June 27, 2021 at 2:36 am

    “Shove everything inside and close those flaps!” Is my cleaning mantra! 🤣

  25. C M on June 27, 2021 at 2:37 am

    Such cute, adorable ideas! 🙌🏻💕🤗

  26. Anita Wickes on June 27, 2021 at 2:39 am

    Those IKEA “Trofast” units are so functional for toy storage. Kinda ugly though. However, painting the frames and applying fabric to the bins with Mod Podge solves that problem.

  27. Call Me Mom on June 27, 2021 at 2:39 am

    Woo Hoo! And thank you.

  28. Joyce De Lima on June 27, 2021 at 2:40 am

    Hi ❤️

  29. Sheila Depew on June 27, 2021 at 2:41 am

    Who is changing the sheets and making up the beds in the sky?

  30. Beverly Gamblin on June 27, 2021 at 2:41 am

    What’s a good way to give an 11 year old girl her purple wall request without painting a wall purple? This seems to be an age predictable request. Looking for options to deliver on the request in a way that she feels part of the process with a long term solution that she loves and will take her into her teen years with the occasional decor changes as she grows.

  31. Ana Alves on June 27, 2021 at 2:45 am

    As usual a fantastic video 😊👏👏👏. I definitely need to have block out blinds in my daughter’s bedroom and she has always had a double bed, extra length. It’s more comfortable for everyone to climb into bed and read books at the end of the day and if she is ill and one of us has to spend the night with her then there is plenty of room in the bed for both of us to sleep comfortably. Don’t forget waterproof sheets, accidents will happen. And I love baskets, I bought some simple neutral ones and then added a cute trim to it. I wouldn’t recommend spending too much money on your kids bedrooms, other than a really good mattress, they outgrown their bedroom decor very fast. Remember to have fun with it, I had an idea of what my daughter’s bedroom should look like, but she had her own vision for it so I had to compromise on some things, it’s not how I wanted it, but it’s not my bedroom.😉

  32. Philippa Pay on June 27, 2021 at 2:45 am

    You are so right that we all need to use the footprint of the bed to house a lot more than just the bed, whether it’s a play space or study area or crafting center. The real estate of the bedroom needs to be useful for more than sleeping, so kids can have quiet time in there or friends over when they are old enough to be a bit unsupervised for short periods. You gave us terrific examples. You are so right about trunks limiting use of the space above them or even what you can safely sit atop them. I particularly loved the examples of flooring you showed. I had not seen the one that is made of colorful striped pieces of carpeting. I am going to look that one up online among a few other options you presented to us. Thanks.

  33. marnie b on June 27, 2021 at 2:46 am

    Even though I don’t have kids, I have to watch a Lisa upload! And I may be able to pass on this info to a friend. Ps- mobiles should be 3 dimensional, because if it isn’t m, the baby only sees a line while lying down.

  34. AvaElizabeth on June 27, 2021 at 2:48 am

    Can i just hire you?
    Ive a small studio , it will be easy

  35. Preksha Bajpai on June 27, 2021 at 2:49 am

    Lovely video. Very well explained and covered almost all aspects. I would also love t know about study tables

  36. Danë Healy-Callaghan on June 27, 2021 at 2:50 am

    I don’t even have kids. It’s just really hard to find interior design videos on loft beds. Great video.

  37. Lala C on June 27, 2021 at 2:50 am

    what a great video!

  38. Barbara Koch on June 27, 2021 at 2:53 am

    HI Lisa, love your videos and advice. I have a question about covering box springs. I want to get rid of my bedskirt. Ive heard you can cover the box spring with a fitted bed sheet. This way no more movement and dirt pile up like a bed skirt causes. Your thoughts and suggests please? FYI: I have a cast iron bed in brushed gold with a bit of black in it. I love it. It has a bar but not side panels like the new modern "box beds", not sure what they are called But you see these new beds in all the designer shows,

  39. 1 1 on June 27, 2021 at 2:53 am

    This video is right on time. I just moved and will be designing a new room for my son!

  40. Victoria Algra on June 27, 2021 at 3:00 am

    Again wonderful professional information Lisa! So light and bright and happy! I Love it!! 💕 Our daughter is expecting her first baby 🍼 I sent this so she can get excited about creating the Baby/ Child space.. I gave them play houses and tents when they were little .. so wonderful for keeping the children on a creativity spark! 🙏🍼🍭🍦🍬

  41. squalloogal on June 27, 2021 at 3:00 am

    👍

  42. ANA v on June 27, 2021 at 3:01 am

    Why don’t you suggest us or put a link to cute baskets specially to display on a shelf made up of cubes?

  43. Patty Gilligan on June 27, 2021 at 3:02 am

    This video is a blast from the past.. i cant believe my boys are now young men.

  44. Angela GenX on June 27, 2021 at 3:03 am

    Awesome advice! Wish I had this video when I was decorating my kids’ rooms years ago! I just winged it with some help from Pinterest. Those ikea storage units were a lifesaver! I loved the look of baskets for storage on the top shelf of closets, but they cost more than I was willing to spend, so I saved diaper boxes, cut the flaps off and covered them with burlap, added a decorative ribbon and they looked great for extra storage. They’ve lasted 12 years! My two youngest are in that transition stage, the toy days are done and they want a more “mature” space, and have developed their own style. It’s been interesting redoing their space, my daughters share a room so trying to bring in both of their styles has been interesting, one is neutral, the other is colorful, it’s a challenge😂

  45. C VonSutphen on June 27, 2021 at 3:03 am

    * Great Tips Lisa* . Loft beds are a winner in my book for small bedrooms, the downside is changing linens. The all-in-one sleeping bag style sets are perfect for loft beds (where were they when I had littles?). I always hated "character themed" rooms, I went with a design that could easily be upgraded for maturity milestones.
