We’re officially at the halfway point of The One Room Challenge! This past month has been a ton of reaching out to sponsors, purging products, and getting ready for some big changes next month to this room. And thank you so much for your feedback on my IG account about the paint color for the room. Clare Paint in Grayish was the clear winner!
As I continue to tease you about the suspense of what’s to come, I wanted to dig into a topic that I think many parents and design enthusiasts will want to weigh in on. For the reading nook in the toddler room, are you team swivel chair or rocker? With my daughter, I had a glider in her nursery and kept it until she went to kindergarten. But with my son, I’ve been rethinking the tiny room, and those barrel swivel chairs are making me take a double take. They’re so cozy to sit in, and we could cuddle during story time.
The reading nook is small and, at most, can fit a chair roughly three feet wide. Below is my pros and cons list for each chair:
Swivel Chair
Pros
Stain-resistant fabric
Soft to touch
360-degree spin
Cons
armless
Rocker
Pros
Easy to clean
Greenguard Gold certified
durable
Cons
vegan leather will show scratches
So, which would you choose for a toddler room makeover? Vote on my IG account tonight, and I’ll share the results next week.
