Description
Fun, bright nursery with a girly twist. The room is pretty tiny though, with 2 windows so it was challenging getting everything to fit! It's cozy but we like it.
Design Inspiration
The framed tree fabric (Pretty Little Things) had the exact color scheme I was going for. I chose that first and everything else fell into place. I also love looking online at blogs, pinterest, etc. to get inspiration.
Decorating Style
Modern/eclectic. I love bright bold patterns and clean lines, but also vintage items. I sometimes have expensive taste though, so I love finding ways to replicate a look without a lot of money!

Advice
Have fun and don't stress too much. Try to do an inspiration board (even in microsoft word) to get a good visual of what you like. I know what I like but sometimes they don't go well together. If I do an inspiration board I can visually see it all come together before I "pull the trigger"
