Project Nursery: Rocker & Stuffed Friends

We now have furniture in the nursery, well a piece of furniture! My parents generously bought this beautiful rocker for us and Mr. Designs by Vanessa put it together over the weekend. I can't wait to read our little guy bedtime stories from this rocker, but for now his stuffed friends (from Etsy seller Cuore) will be hanging out there.

Idea Board: Butterfly Nursery

Alyssa recently emailed asking for my help with her nursery, she wrote:
"I really want a nursery that is classic and simple. I like light neutral colors on the walls and white furniture. As far as accents go, I’m thinking either birdies or butterflies, in a very subtle way. I also like soft yellows, greens and pinks."
While I love birdies, I feel like bird nurseries are everywhere so I decided to go the butterfly route. I'm not a fan of heavily themed rooms where everything from the bedding to the trashcan is matching so I would personally pick a bedding that doesn't have butterflies in it and add in a few subtle butterfly accents. I'm in love with this Buttefly Mobile and these Butterfly Mirrors from Pottery Barn Kids. I think this Mini Shade Chandelier in green would be perfect for the room and I would try to find a similar table lamp. I would also make a couple of these Ruffle Pillows in green and pink. I hope this inspired you Alyssa, I can't wait to see what you come up with! Thanks for giving me a break from all things boy!

Idea Board: Modern Bird Nursery

Lara recently emailed me asking for my help with her nursery, she wrote:
"I'm thinking a blue-gray (fairly light) wall color with white crown molding and possibly a white chair rail. White furniture. Then pops of bright colors - red, yellow, dark blue, orange, etc. I want a subtle bird/nature theme. I'm thinking a white branch or tree on the wall and little bird/nature tchotkes. I want clean, bright, modern, cheerful..."
This nursery is right up my alley and very similar to my own modern nursery plans so it was fun coming up with new ideas. Chair railing reminds me of a traditional room so instead I added a stripe of gray to the room for a more modern effect. I hope this inspires Lara, I can't wait to see pics of her finished nursery!
