A Well-Dressed Nursery

The other morning I stumbled upon an article about the talent behind House on Simply Stated. In the afternoon I browsed through a gorgeous new design book at Borders called the The Well-Dressed Home. By evening, I found myself drooling over an amazing crib bedding collection carried by Layla Grayce. If that’s not a sign to blog about Annette Tatum, the textile designer behind all of the above, then I don’t know what is!
With so many beautiful patterns to choose from such as retro bamboo, elegant brocade and bright bingo-like dots, a touch of your personality is guaranteed to come through in the design of your baby’s nursery. And with respectable celebrity endorsements from Hollywood Moms such a Minnie Driver and Marcia Cross, surely one can expect great things from Annette Tatum! Keep tabs on Annette by visiting her charming blog and for a peek into those A-list real rooms.

A “Greener” Place with First:Place

New York based Amanda Moore launched her sustainable design firm re:place in 2001 by taking a holistic approach to interior design. When pregnant with her son Ryder, Amanda used her talent for developing environmentally-sensitive commercial and residential spaces in the nursery. In 2006, first:place was born: “A nursery design consultancy with the mission of guiding parents in making smart choices for their children’s rooms without compromising modern aesthetic or fun“.  As a successful interior designer and mom, Amanda’s eco-chic nurseries honor family rituals, health, and all the senses as much as the need for a good changing table and safe crib.
