DIY Glitter Animals

| May 9, 2013

These glitter animals are so easy to make, and they add such a glam pop to your kids’ bookshelves. The greatest product to hit the market lately, in my opinion, is Rustoleum’s glitter spray paint. I am so in love with this stuff and thought it would be fun to use on some accessory decor like these DIY glitter animals. [...]

Geometric Accent Wall

| May 8, 2013

Remember that fruit border your mom had in your kitchen? Or the paisley print in maroon and navy in your dining room? No, don’t worry—they aren’t back, and they definitely are NOT trending. Those accents may be out, but geometric accent walls, whether with wallpaper or paint, are making a big statement in nurseries. [...]

DIY Painted Houndstooth Wall

| May 1, 2013

You may remember the DIY beds for this room when I first shared some pictures of my boys’ unfinished shared room. I managed to get pretty far into the process while pregnant with #3, and then all the design came to a halt. Now I finally decided things needed to happen. [...]

Mint, Anyone?

| February 13, 2013

As designers, sometimes we stretch our imaginations to come up with the next “big idea,” but, sometimes, the next big thing is staring us in the face, everywhere we go. We all know that trends can go either way—from fabulously wonderful (welcome back, wallpaper!) to tastefully questionable (mustache wallpaper?). One trend we’re both noticing in [...]

Romantic Style in the Nursery

| February 7, 2013

February is the perfect month to honor romantic style. This style embraces the softer side of design and alludes to fairy tales, dreamy garden parties and even Romeo and Juliet. No two interpretations of romantic style are alike. Romance, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. [...]

2013 Nursery Trends: Golden Girl

| December 19, 2012

Gold is glamorous! When paired with soft pinks and grey, it’s pure sophistication in the nursery. The true standout, however, is the four post Ivy crib and dresser from Nurseryworks, debuting in 2013. The subtle “stone” grey color and golden drawer pulls are undoubtedly Oscar-worthy. [...]

Gallery Roundup: Mad for Plaid

| September 27, 2012

We just love painted patterns in nurseries; they always make a major impact. While plaid is an old-school pattern, these rooms, found in our gallery, have made the traditional plaid cool and modern. Elena and Myles Shared Room by carrieharb
