The happy and creative mum writes: "When planning the girls' new room I really wanted something that was bright and whimsical but still feminine. I love pink and orange together because it just feels "happy" or maybe because it reminds me of Oilily dresses."
While she consciously brought in aspects of the Chinese heritage, she also consciously didn't make it too China-feel. There are Chinese details like the Chinese Peony quilt, set of 4 peasant paintings, red cheongsams, birdcages that look pagoda-ish and the double happiness character on the teapot on the bear story mural. (The mural on the reading nooks with shelves on both sides is from "Bear Wants More" by Karma Wilson and Jane Chapman.)
A beautiful room for beautiful Asian sweethearts.
