Having just recently discovered these
adorable pint sized reproductions
of mid-century design classics over at little nest,
I thought I would share my suggestions here.
Right now I am really loving these "little Bert" chairs.

Fab post! This is perfect because I'm looking to redo my son's room completely. I like the white armchair (I'd like the proper-sized ones for our lounge...); my son would probably like the white-blue round one! Thanks so much! (to the reader also, for asking such a great question)
ReplyDeleteThose Little Bert chairs are absolutely lovely, and streets ahead of most children's furniture.
ReplyDeleteOh, so so cute and colorful!!
ReplyDeletelove "little nest"!

ReplyDeleteI think all of these are tres chic and would either blend in with a modern decor or compliment a classic one ~ you couldn't really go wrong with any of them! The choices today for little ones really astound me! xx Suzanne
ReplyDeleteI love the little Bert chairs =) That with the table would be perfect for what she is looking for!
ReplyDeleteI was at Target the other day and there was a "little boys" chair that looked like a formal chair you would sit by a fire and smoke your cigar in .... Bahha, for little boys? No! I totally could fit in it. Now how to get it from IN to WA...
Little kids furniture is the cutest! I was in Ikea recently and loved looking at all the kids room displays.

and it reminded me of this post.

ReplyDeleteseirously though, these are too cool.
I LOVE these chairs - a pink mini-egg chair? Yes, please! Adorable!
ReplyDeleteI miseed this post! Get the Jake chairs and Jill table from Room & Board. Just the right dash of modern. And light enough to drag from indoors to out, and from room to room. It's lived in every room of our house! xo
