I like very much your 'Real Rooms' posts because they inspire me and give me great ideas for baby nursery decorations. Thanks. I also love the design and colors of the nursery above. The dominating pink give the whole room a cozy and welcoming look.

I love that she used pink but not in an overly powerful way. It's sophisticated.
