Mila’s Vintage Modern Nursery

Description

Mila's nursery is a mixture of vintage and modern.  We combined old finds with new products to create a comfortable, storybook nursery. 

Design Inspiration

We love (obsess over) antique/vintage furniture.  At the same time, we love the simplicity of modern art and design.  It was important to us that we created a nursery which blended both styles, yet was relaxing for Mila.  Some of the items in the room were bought, some hand made and some were restored.

Decorating Style

Traditional, vintage, modern, industrial, whimsical.

The letter M is from Hobby Lobby. The mirror is vintage, but I'm sure you could find a similar one at maybe Hobby Lobby. Hope this helps!

This room is one of the loveliest I've seen in a long time. The canopy stole the show but all the other details made this room stand out.
