Description
This woodland sanctuary nursery is my love letter to my son. It was thoughtfully curated. The entire project took quite some time. I wanted each piece to come into our collection organically. I wanted something calming and with a feel of the wilderness.
Design Inspiration

Eclectic. Hodgepodge. Anything and Everything that I can re purpose or do myself.

Favorite Items
It would be hard to choose at this point! The Owl nightlight is a fave. I saw a similar one at LON but didn't want to pay quite that much. I happened on a dupe in Homegoods and basically did cartwheels home. The book shelves. I saw something cool and wanted to replicate it but could not find the exact planters at Lowes. I found this and it made the room and gave me the inspiration for the dark wood roman shades. It just grounded everything. The Land of Nod bedding. I adore it. My sister in law who is an amazing artist painted the mural behind the bed and has been something I love having my son wake up to each morning.
Advice
Be careful with a theme. Make it a large open theme with room to breathe. Take your time and love every single piece. This room took a while but nothing in it is a compromise. Be open minded and let yourself have time to really think about a choice. Don't be afraid to make a decision because everything can be changed.

I don't know that they carry them online. I would go into the store- I found them with all of the other planters- right outside of the garden/flower section. You might also give the craft stores a check. They may have something similar. Thanks!
