White Elfa Coloring Table

We loved the art table showcased in this Princess and the Pea Playroom, and kept it in our minds as inspiration. If you liked it too, this table provides the same large canvas along with drawer space for supplies.

We like the fact that this desk provides lots of creative space, but it's also so functional. Not only does it have the space to put away all those supplies, but the desk is really a component system and the table can be raised with different legs when your child grows out of it. This is the kind of adaptable design we look for. It's available here.

As a former draftsman and sign painter, I used a very similar set up in my studio. Let me encourage all who read here---if you want to foster creativity in your child, supply them with unlimited paper and things to write, paint and color with. And give them all kinds of paper too: butcher paper, kraft paper, copier paper, tissue paper, crepe paper, newsprint---you get the idea.

And give your child simple drawing tools: triangles, straight-edges and scales, and templates. You will be amazed at how quickly they figure things out.
