So…I am letting the news out early again and of course the designer in me is totally wanting to start my designing daydreams for a new nursery. We are expecting our 3rd baby this November. Right now we have 2 boys and are really hoping for a little chicky! Now we certainly would be smitten with a 3rd boy, but the girly-girl in me is ready for a little pink…
We hope you take a moment to visit our friends and custom crib bedding specialist, Carousel Designs today! We guest blogged over there and shared our tips for painting that perfect wall stripe in your next nursery or toddler room. Or in my own case below…many, many, many stripes!
When it was time for Samantha Harris to welcome baby Hilary to her family she turned to Katy Mimari of Caden Lane. Katy designed the nursery of Samantha’s first child Josselyn and was eager to reinvent the space. Katy sat down with us over a Design Q&A session. We got all the details on why she calls Samantha Harris a “Dream Client!”
When we talk about ideas to decorate your nursery or kids room, many times, a lot of the design ideas are pretty permanent. So what do you do when you do not “own” the space you are living in? Whether renting is a temporary or permanent living situation for you, there are plenty of options to give your kiddos the cool, hip, designer look that you’ll love! Painting the walls are a great way to add drama and impact to a room but most landlords do not allow tenants to paint, so…
Our photo gallery is a collection of rooms from soft pink hues to lime green accents. Browsing those pages we can find damask accent walls and bold striped ceilings. Also, not to be overlooked is some of the trends that started it all, like primary colors.
This nursery titled exploring primary colors is part of an historical Michigan home. The designers wanted to stay true to the feel of the house, so they incorporated maps, globes and antique pieces.
This is my first week rounding up new nursery uploads in my newly painted gray bedroom. We’re always encouraging readers to make the nursery an extension of their personal style, so what better place to go for inspiration than the PN project gallery? Thanks readers, your stylish designs encouraged me to go bold with gray! [...]
Creating a magical journey for a child’s room often starts with setting a backdrop, the walls. The walls can take you to a far off place like a palace in India or on a tour around the world. Whatever you can dream up can be played out on the walls.
I finished the installation on this nursery a few months ago and wanted to share the photos with Project Nursery readers. These are the first photos published for this nursery and additional room photos can be seen in the Project Nursery Gallery. These parents knew they were expecting twins but were waiting for the gender to be a surprise at birth (it turns out they had two beautiful daughters). Both parents grew up on the East coast so wanted to keep a traditional look to the room. Since the nursery has very dark walnut floors and we needed to soften the look of the room. We opted for white…
It seems as if I have received numerous calls recently from gal-pals that are preggers expecting baby number 2. Many of them are living in homes not equipped with an additional bedroom that accommodates their new addition. There is always the posing question, “How should I decorate my new shared space?”. I have seen rooms that are half nursery/half toddler and from a design perspective, having a unified space is visually more pleasing which allows for a smoother transition once baby #2 grows out of their crib. Extra “big kid” bedding can be purchased to plan for that transition…
