After showing off her favorite part of her son’s room — his monogrammed bed with an adorable dinosaur-themed bedspread — theSister, Sisteralum explains the importance of always keeping her son in mind when designing for him.

Mowry-Hardrict also explained the sweet backstory behind her son’s beloved striped tipi.
“Cree, he actually asked for a tipi. He’s had that tipi ever since he was four years old,” she remarks. “And when he was younger, what we would do in this tipi is we would turn off all the lights…and then I would put this pillow that illuminated stars and lights and we would just sit there on this pillow, him and myself, and I would read to him. I would read him a book and that was the way I’d put him to bed.”
