Maybe putting something over the top like large smooth rocks or moss? Not sure if he’ll get into that too though. Also I think fiddle leaf figs are poison if eaten so be careful if he puts stuff in his mouth.

I love how they look in your office! And would like get some for our home, however, we have a 1.5 year old who loves to get into everything. Any child-proofing tips for keeping small kiddos from making a giant mess with the plant’s soil?

Thanks so much and congrats on your new addition to the family. I love your blog, and hope you guys are enjoying the slower pace now that Teddy has arrived.

We like satin the best (we use it for furniture, cabinets, etc).

I see online that it comes in Satin, Semi-Gloss, and High-Gloss?

It’s satin. Has a nice sheen everywhere.

What finish is your BM Advance paint? I noticed in one of the final pictures that the top is very shiny, which is probably because of the Safecoat Acrylacq, but is the rest of the desk that glossy as well? Thanks!
