If you've ever designed a children's room you're aware that there's a severe lack of stylish (read: non-cutesy) beds that are also playful enough for the ultra-youthful among us. In planning for my client's two kids' rooms, I'm noticing that the bulk of children's beds are all very age-specific -- meaning, they'll be sweet for a year or two until the child grows out of it (and from a designer's prospective, most of them are trying too hard to be cute). That's why I'm mad about The New Traditionalists' Regency Youth Bed. It can be customized in a multitude of colors, meaning you'll find the perfect look to last. (Available to the trade.) The New Traditionalists, in general, are just an incredibly awesome source for sophisticated style. Check out some of my favorites (below the Regency Youth Bed):

Sourced: The Swanky Abode
I admit it: I'm a midcentury addict, and I love scouring through vintage shops that specialize in the chic-genre. So when I stumbled upon The Swanky Abode I squealed with excitement. Take a look for yourself to find some beautiful designer pieces...

Posts have been limited lately -- and probably will be for a while -- thanks to a hectic client load. And I leave in a week for a little adventure in Morocco and Portugal! I came across this sweet little DIY project and thought I'd share. Enjoy!
