Hazel’s Cheery Coral Pink & Gray Nursery

Description

Hazel's nursery is a mix of budget pieces, DIY projects, and vintage/ thrift store finds. We wanted to create a bright, cheery room without feeling like it was overly baby-themed. We wanted a space that could grow with her and be enjoyed for years to come!

Design Inspiration

The fabric for the pillow cover and crib skirt were really the starting point for Hazel's nursery. I loved the coral pinks and blues in it, along with the touches of gold, and tried to incorporate those colors throughout the room.

Favorite Items

It's hard to pick just one, but I think my favorite items are the art work made by family members and the campaign dresser. We found the dresser in very rough shape at a local Goodwill for $25, painted it, and added 'legs' to make it easier to change diapers. It took a while to finish, but I think it's the statement piece of the room!

Advice

Don't rush to pull the room together. Finding pieces that you love and that fit in your budget takes time... I think the best rooms are a unique mix of high-end, vintage, and DIY projects!

What a great find on that dresser! It's a statement piece and looks fabulous in this nursery.

I like the art pieces you put in here, specifically the heart strings and that abstract painting above the changing table. What's the medium used for that abstract art?

Thank you, Kimmy! I purchased the abstract art from a local artist, but I believe it is oil on canvas.
