Winter isn’t usually associated with pottering about in the garden. However, it’s possible to grow, harvest, and share a bustling winter crop.

As we have celebrated Matariki and the beginning of the Māori New Year, for winter gardeners it’s the right time to cultivate crops that thrive in cooler temperatures and to prepare the soil for future planting.

Create a Gender-Neutral Bedroom for Babies and Toddlers 🛏️💖

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Once upon a time, it was all about pink for girls and blue for boys. While that might still be popular, many parents now prefer a gender-neutral approach when decorating their baby's or toddler's bedroom.

Once upon a time, it was all about pink for girls and blue for boys. While that might still be popular, many parents now prefer a gender-neutral approach when decorating their baby's or toddler's bedroom.

Several influences have contributed to this trend. Parents are moving away from obvious gender colour biases and are instead inspired by interior styles like the Scandi look, which offers a softer neutral palette. So, instead of hot pink and cobalt blue walls, you might find soothing dove greys accented with icy turquoise, pale apple green, soft yellow, and light wooden tones. 🌿✨

Another exciting trend is using bold colors like black and primary shades. These colours are still quite gender-neutral but offer a stronger look, perhaps more suited for a toddler’s or young child’s bedroom. Don't hold back—your children are only young once. Their lives should be filled with colour, fun, and creativity. 🎨🌟

A bedroom with neutral-coloured walls and bolder accents in bedding and accessories can easily grow with your child without needing to redecorate. Plus, it makes the room versatile for other uses in the future. 🛏️🔄

An easy and eye-catching painted feature wall can visually anchor the bed in a bedroom, creating a focal point that adds charm and character to the space. 🎨💫
