Real moms’ stories: how Anna created her dream child’s room with Betty’s Home

The beginning of a big adventure

When Anna found out she was going to become a mom, she immediately started dreaming of a small, cozy room for her baby. “I wanted it to be not only beautiful, but also meaningful. Full of things that truly matter — not random decorations from a big-box store,” she says.

Although her Pinterest board was initially filled with images in many different styles, over time she noticed she was most drawn to natural materials, muted colors, and personalized accents. That’s how she discovered Betty’s Home.

The room concept: a little boho, a little classic

Anna lives in Kraków, in a beautiful historic apartment with high ceilings and large windows. She wanted her daughter Maja’s room to feel bright and spacious, but at the same time warm and cozy.

“It was important to me that this would be a room that grows together with her. That in two or three years, it would only take changing a few cushions or pictures for everything to still feel cohesive,” she explains.

That’s why she chose walls in a very soft beige shade and natural wood flooring. She completed the base with linen curtains and a rug in a warm, sandy tone.

Personalized letter cushions — the heart of the entire space

Although Maja’s room already looked beautiful once the furniture was in place, it was the accessories that truly gave it soul. “From the very beginning, I knew I wanted letter cushions. I jokingly call it a small obsession — because these cushions are simply wonderful!” Anna laughs.

She chose letter cushions in velvet, in sage and caramel shades, and arranged them on a shelf next to the books. “It’s more than just decoration. Every time I walk into the room and see Maja’s name spelled out in these soft letters, I get emotional. I know that one day she’ll read it herself and feel proud.”

The canopy and reading nook

Another of Anna’s dreams was a canopy. She didn’t want a typical pink one, so she chose a muted apricot shade instead. Underneath it, she placed a bouclé floor pouf and a small basket filled with plush toys.

“This is our reading spot. After bath time, we sit there with Maja and look at picture books. It’s already her favorite ritual,” Anna shares.

Why did she choose decorations from Betty’s Home?

Anna admits that before placing her first order, she spent a long time searching for the right accessories. “I wanted something high quality — not a plastic garland that would end up in the trash after a month.”

What convinced her were:

• safe, certified materials with OEKO-TEX® certification — free from harmful substances,
• machine-washable designs — priceless when you have a small child,
• handmade production in Poland — giving each cushion a little bit of heart.

Not just for Instagram photos

Maja’s room receives nothing but compliments from Anna’s family and friends. But most importantly — it’s not a space “just for show.” “When I see Maja cuddling a velvet letter cushion or resting her head on the pouf inside the canopy, I know it was the best decision. This room truly lives together with us.”

Anna often takes photos and shares them on Instagram, but she emphasizes that this isn’t the reason she pays attention to every detail. “I do it because I want Maja to feel happy and safe here. The photos are just a small bonus.”

How to create a similar room for your little one?

Anna’s advice is simple: trust yourself. “Online inspiration is wonderful, but the most beautiful interiors are created when you can see your own story in them. Don’t be afraid of letter cushions, personalized decorations, and small details that say something about your child.”

That’s how a room becomes not just pretty, but truly yours.
