When my daughter was born, I could not imagine her growing out of the cute pink motif I plastered on the walls of her room. But as her second birthday passed last week, I see that the time has come for something a bit more fitting.

Not a fan of cartoon characters in overly bright colors, I found it difficult to find a one-stop-shop that would make redesigning her room effortless. Visiting Homeworks Furniture & Accessories was a great relief. There, I found a terrific selection of furniture, wall decor, growth charts and signs to add a unique touch and feel to not just her room, but any room in the house. I especially love the the butterfly growth chart for tracking her unbelievable growth and the “Princess sleeps here” sign to put above her new toddler bed.

My son liked the hooks with trucks and trains and I especially liked the “friends and family” plaques for the living room wall.

HomeWorks Etc. focuses on designing furniture and accessories that are functional, decorative and meant to last. Many of their pieces are timeless and will last for generations. They are committed to hand making these products that ensure a high standard of quality at reasonable prices.

You can feel safe putting their decor in your children’s rooms. The selection of woods they use have non toxic adhesives, and 100% recycled formeldahyde-free medium density fibreboard combined with low VOC (volatile organic compound) finishes affirms their commitment to lasting and eco-friendly items.

If you have a bit of the crafter in you, check you the “do it yourself section”. This is a great way to customize a piece or create a project you and your children can do together, really giving them the opportunity to decorate their room. They also have pages of terrific items under $20.00 …some as low as $4.99 that would make great stocking suffers for all your friends. I can’t decide between “Hope” , “Noel” or “Naughty and Nice”.
