Hadley’s Vintage Inspired Nursery

Description

Pale pink and gray vintage nursery.

Design Inspiration

This nursery is vintage inspired.  My goal with the room was to refurbish old pieces and make as much as I could on my own. I wanted the room to have a calming affect and be a room that my little girl could grow into.

Decorating Style

Soft and girly

Favorite Items

My favorite item is the french provincial dresser that my husband refinished.  

Advice

Be crafty!  If you are looking to refinish furniture- don't get caught up in the original appearance.  Look at the bones of the piece.

I couldn't find any reviews either. We haven't put it to much use yet, but so far so good. I do wish it was a little taller though. It's the same height as the dresser and I think it looks funny.

Adorable nursery! I found the Franklin & Ben Arlington crib in a local store and LOVE it, but haven't found any actual reviews of it. Were you happy with how it is constructed? Have you seen any reviews about the crib?

How did you hang your poms? Was that included in the DIY video?

I used push pins and fishing line to hang them.

Gorgeous! We don't know whether we are having a boy or a girl yet, but we want to paint the walls gray either way...do you mind sharing the brand and color you used? Thank you!

I'm not 100% sure, but I know it's either Sherwin Williams Mindful Gray or Dorian Gray. I used both colors in different rooms and I can't remember which is which.

Lovely room for a little girl. I like the birdcage, the lamp with crystals, and the rocking chair!
