These are our available crib bedding sets. Items from each of the collections are available individually so that you can keep your decorations minimal, all the way up to a fully coordinating nursery ensemble. We also offer coordinating fabrics from many of our collections that will allow you to create your own decor items, or help you with the transition from a nursery to a big kid’s room.

Colorful & Cozy Baby Girl’s Nursery

Our first child, a baby girl, is due this October. Our spare room had never been used so I was working with a blank slate. I definitely love a good find, and I’m comfortable with a sewing machine, so I made the curtains and crib skirt. I’d seen a similar crib skirt at Pottery Barn, but refused to pay full price; instead I made my own with a duvet cover no longer in use. The crib itself is a replica of the one I had as a child, and I knew from the get-go it was the style we would use for our daughter. The dresser was a bargain find at a second hand shop, and all it needed was some paint. While it didn’t start out as a “theme,” the room ended up being an ode to strong women. I hung pictures of two of her great-grandmothers, Amelia Earhart, Wonder Woman, and a cool artsy find off Etsy of Frida Kahlo. I absolutely love how it all turned out.

Royal Prince Nursery

This royal prince nursery was a Gender Surprise Nursery® and was one of our most memorable designs to date. The client was having her second baby and didn’t want to know the baby’s gender, yet wanted to have an over-the-top, elegant royal nursery completed to her liking before she had the baby. So we designed two complete nurseries down to every detail…one for a boy and one for a girl. Then when the mom-to-be went for her ultrasound, the doctor sealed up a picture in an envelope and mailed it to our studio. I couldn’t wait for the secret to be revealed and was so tickled to be the only person besides the doctor to know the gender of the baby! I opened the envelop and saw an obvious BOY in the image and got right to work ordering up all of the appropriate boy nursery furniture, bedding, wall art, lighting and decor. We had to stage most of the nursery’s decor here in our studio and when the furniture was set to arrive, we drove to NJ, the family left the house, and we kicked into gear receiving the nursery furniture and installing the crib bedding, wall art, rug, and accessories down to the tiniest little detail. We completed the decorative mural around the room and when finished, locked the door behind us! We even taped paper over the windows and taped around the outside of the door so no “glow” might show through the door crack at night! The nursery would sit and wait for Mommy and baby to arrive home from the hospital. Such a fun project and so full of excitement and anticipation. When Mom and baby Luke arrived home from the hospital and she saw her nursery for the first time, she contacted me and said “the nursery is breath taking and made me cry!” I love a happy ending…don’t you?

Roman’s Nautical Nursery

My husband and I had such a great time putting together this nursery for our little man. We really enjoyed making a majority of the items in his nursery and seeing all of the finished projects come together at the end. I absolutely love going into his nursery and just rocking in the recliner- the room is so peaceful and calm. Our little man will be born in 2-3 weeks and we are super excited to meet him and play with him for years to come in his nursery.

Pink & Leopard for Ava Jaymes!

This Nursery Room was designed for Backstreet Boy AJ & his wife Rochelle McLean. We started off with a pink and leopard color palette, lending itself to a feminine glam concept with a bit of sass!
We wanted this room to be transitional for Ava as she grows, so instead of choosing pieces with a Juvenile look, we selected furnishings with a more classic style and convertible functions that she can use and will love for years to come. AJ & Rochelle were so wonderful to work with and they are incredibly happy with the finished product!

Twins- Edward and Ivy’s Aqua Gray and Lime Nursery

This aqua and gray striped nursery with white furniture and vintage daybed is all set up for twins. Colorful throw pillows and bedding in turquoise, lime, white, and a little  pink (for Ivy), some original artwork, a mini-chandelier, and nature inspired mobile bring this nursery to life. This turned into a group project where different members of our family were able to use their special talents whether it was carpentry, painting, sewing , or art and design.
