Keia's Whimsical Scandinavian Lavender Nursery
Thursday, February 07, 2019
Welcome to Keia Lavender's Nursery, my baby daughter's little nest which I meticulously and enthusiastically designed on my own.
I've been a fan of Scandinavian interior design ever since my husband and I lived in a condo a couple of years ago. Scandinavian design is simple, minimal, clean and modern. So when we moved to a bigger place, it was still the theme that I wanted. And my very first project? Of course, Keia's nursery. It was my dream for her to have her own room because we only had one room in our condo and I promised myself that when the time comes that we will be blessed to own a house, Keia's room will be at the top of my priority list.
Since her name is Lavender (Yes. She's Keia Lavender), I incorporated it to her room's main theme making it a mixture of Scandinavian and whimsical.

Just want to share with you the content of Keia's dresser. Beside the changing pad is Keia's toiletries that we use on a daily basis - cotton, cotton buds, baby lotion, baby oil, manzanilla, insect repellant and ointments. The topmost drawer is where I store the diapers, wipes and hair accessories. The middle and bottom drawers are where I store Keia's everyday clothes, muslin, booties & towels. I was inspired by the #konmari method of folding clothes.

The quote "A bad day of fishing is still better than a good day at work" is a popular saying that speaks to the joys of being out on the water and the peace of mind that comes from the simple act of angling. Fishing can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience, even on days when the fish don't bite or the weather is less than ideal. For many anglers, fishing is more than just a pastime; it's a way to connect with nature and to take time away from the stresses of everyday life.
