They’ve done it again! More reasons to look on the bright side when dragging yourself into the nursery at three in the morning for that feeding you swore you were going to somehow do away with! Nurseryworks, our favorite makers of ultra stylish furnishings for baby’s first room have just come out with five new amazing pieces. The Empire Rocker, Canterbury Changing Table, Spindle Crib and Harvard and Vale Headboards are the newest designs by the Los Angeles based company. With a focus on providing clean, simple, contemporary pieces for baby’s first environment, these newest pieces remind us why we love this company so much.

The new collection offers classic, full-of-character details such as turned wood spindles, tufting and winged backs yet it’s updated to fit today’s modern style. The Empire Rocker has cozy wings and tufted details, offered in microsuede, twill and velvet with color choices ranging from Ecru to Citrus to Lilac. I am in love with the new Spindle Crib because it is a fresh take on a very old-fashioned design. With an ethos to stay earth friendly while providing fresh modern furnishings, Nurseryworks surely has our hearts.

Inspired by Potterybarn Kids’s “Alphabet Soup” crib bedding: A sweet, simple, gender neutral nursery for baby to be.

The other week we showcased H’s (all boy) playtime nursery. H’s adoptive family also knew they would be welcoming H’s biological sister shortly there after. Without knowing the sex, they turned to cool, gender neutral crib bedding for inspiration.

Sarah tells us that she ”started with the “Alphabet Soup” crib bedding from Pottery Barn Kids purchased off Ebay(PN note: LOVE Ebay as a “NIB”, PBK or RH resource!) and pulled the colors featured in that bedding to use in the rest of the room.  The room features light green walls with red and light blue accents.  We fell in love with, and splurged on a matching elephant rocker from Babystyle which we love!  Also used in this room are framed alphabet wall cards from EEBOO which we feel adds a touch of whimsy.”

Little sister A is now a beautiful, active 10 month old girl enjoying her lovely room and lucky family! We wish the H family all the best as they are in the home stretch of their adoption process! Now if they could just build a playroom we all could admire…..

Every now and then Guns n’ Roses will play on the radio. I immediately crank the volume and rock out to “Sweet Child O’ Mine” (Check out the You Tube video - Oh Yeah!). I must look pretty hot cruising the LA freeways forgetting that I have a giant car seat, silly frog shaped mirror and toddler in the back seat!
