For our son’s room, we wanted something more than just a nursery that he would immediately grow out of, so we filled it with toys and storage for him to use for years to come!

Once I found out that we were having a little boy I knew that I wanted to combine the whimsy of vintage Disney with the modern look of chevron and stripes. My color palate was from Sherwin Williams. The blue is Respite and the gray used on the stripe wall is Pussywillow

I planned and designed a birthday party to celebrate my son’s 1st Birthday! Having a love for event decor, I knew from the beginning that this was going to be a hands-on project.

For our son’s room, we wanted something more than just a nursery. The room is rather large, so we made it more of a child’s room with a play area that he could grow up in, not immediately grow out of.

Since the birth of my daughter my husband and I wanted to have all the Disney classic movies for her to watch and grow up with. As her birthday grew closer I knew I wanted something earthly, vintage and storybook. The 1st thought that popped into my head was Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. So I got to work watching the movie over and over again and the internet became my best friend. The invitation was designed to look like storybook inviting guests to come to our cottage. Once they arrived the guest were welcome with a sign to enter the enchanted forest. For the favors each kid received a wooden basket filled with an apple sippy cup, bubbles, an organic lollipop and a crayon roll. During the party the kids had fun drawing and playing in the coloring cottage, and in the family playroom that contained a tent, toys, and a ball pit. Each table was covered in a rustic burlap cloth, firewood and one of the seven dwarfs. For the outside dessert table I decided to recreate the Dwarf’s mine and filled with sparkly jewel-like sweets for the kids and adults to indulge in!

We just moved into our new apartment when we found out I was pregnant with our first. Loving design, I searched for inspiration on the Internet weeks before we knew if it was a boy or girl! As soon as we knew we we’re expecting a little guy, we started putting our ideas together and came up with a space that will grow with him and create great memories for years to come…

We decided to make the baby’s sex a surprise. So we needed something neutral. Winnie the Pooh came to us and we took it from there! We picked the colors for the background from  Disney’s color set. We used Bibiddi Bobbiddi Blue and Tinker Bell Green. After the background was painted we hand sketched the characters and painted them in a few coats. We used an acrylic paint(s) to color the characters. The furniture is made by Simmons and was bought from Clossics in Delaware Our window treatments  were custom made by a friend of ours. The fabrics were imported from Hawaii. They are made specifically from room darkening. It took us about 2 weeks. We are so anxious for the little one to get here!!

This nursery is for my Aurora. I wanted a Pooh room but hubby wanted Snow White to be there too. It took me about two months to finish the mural but totally worth it. These pictures were taken before we put all the furnitures in.
