Violet’s Nursery

WEB (30)

A Project For: Violet
Age: will be born Dec. 2011
Location: Bellingham
Description:
Eclectic and modern nursery that is fun and functional! Great color palette for boy or girl.
Design Inspiration:
I wanted a gender neutral nursery that was eclectic and not your typical baby room. I wanted it to be soothing and sophisticated.
Decorating Style:
Mix of old and new!
Project Details:
I love to search antique stores for items that can be spruced up. I love a good deal and believe good design doesn't have to cost a lot. For my curtains, they are linen drapes from bed bath and beyond. I added the pom pom trim myself with a hot glue gun. The armoire was from an antique store that I painted white.
Favorite Items:
My favorite item is the armoire. It was only $175!
Advice:
Do your research! I searched for the perfect upholstered glider that wasn't going to cost me $1,000 or take 10 weeks to get delivered. I called Restoration Hardware outlet, and picked it up that day for $580. Big score!!

Lovely. Can you share the name of the paint color on the walls?

This nursery looks so clean and fresh and very calm. And I love that it looks simple and modern, nothing too ornate. And you have quite a unique changing area. Love that you made good use of that wall feature!

I got the rug from Target $60. The paint color is Robin’s Nest from Benjamin Moore. It’s also a No VOC paint! Thanks for the comments. I just got my crib and will post it when it’s put together.

Shosh, thanks for the compliment. I got the letters at TJ Maxx for about $5. Also, for the alphabet cards I used those double sided sticky squares from like Office Max.
