Stop the myth with your children’s rooms on Instagram, we know the truth

This fluffy black and white Berber rug is just too beautiful. And it looks great in the nursery of this Instagram influencer with 180,000 subscribers, so you’d love to have it too.

But really, is that a good idea? A good investment? The Berber carpet, the rabbit night light and the hand-woven wicker crib by Tibetan monks will pass the crash test of your baby vomiting and snoting everywhere, pooping excessively and not just in the diaper and has a bad habit of smashing on it the food? every surface?

Here’s a little one Instagram against realitybecause I’m not teaching you anything: social networks are not real life.

Instagram VS reality: decorating children’s rooms

What are the trends? What’s very cute about influencers, but not at all adaptable in normal families? Small non-exhaustive list:

• The woven wicker crib: very cute, vintage and cute all full of pictures. In real life : it very badly absorbs the splashes of vomit from the gastrointestinal tract of the little ones and the stuck pieces rot inside without the possibility of extracting them.
• The rabbit night light: any choupi so that the cherub does not go crazy in the dark, goes very well with the Berber carpet. In real life : it can only be used with batteries that need to be replaced every week and lights up the room too much to be a truly usable night light.
• The Montessori rainbow in wood: design, cute and very fashionable. In real life : object absolutely ignored by the child who prefers an old bottle of Volvic with pebbles inside.
• The dream catcher with pastel-colored pompoms to hang over the heir’s bed: perfect for photos, it gives a little feeling of tranquility and peaceful nights. In real life : he finds himself very quickly torn from the wall by the child in question, who discovers a mad passion for chewing pompoms.
• The famous soft carpet on which you would almost like to lie down to take a nap. Very pretty in the photos, but in real life : It catches cat fur very well as well as baby snot and snot, greatly facilitating microbe-filled pilling.
• The “flying birds” stickers: dress the walls, discreet and full of charm. In real life : physical inability to attach the entire adhesive without a wing tip sticking to the fingers. If ever the bird finally manages to be hooked, the child will very quickly take care of snatching it.
• A tent read sweet stories with animals having exciting adventures – super instagrammable, looks very cozy and comfortable. In real life : the child will put a foot in it for the photo to be sent to the grandparents and will only use it as a space to store his toys and half-chewed cakes.
