The Great Outdoors Nursery

This project was so much fun to work on! I got to help an old friend of mine from high school create a unique and personal nursery for her son, Cade. I’ve been working on designs to launch a new line of nursery bedding & decor and she happened to see a post I made of some designs I had created and so we began working together. My friend worked with me through the process to create the designs for the crib sheet, the crib skirt, the crib comforter, the black out curtains and the three little animal art prints above the crib. She did an incredible job of pulling the rest of it together, and my photographer said it was one of the most gorgeous nurseries she’s ever seen in person! ;)
 
 

Asher’s Natural Explorer Nursery

I had no real plan for this nursery when I started out beyond liking gray and orange.  The first item I purchased was the cow rug and the rest of the room kind of evolved from there.
Many items in the room were repurposed.  For example, the dresser and chest were my mom’s when she was a little girl, just repainted with new hardware. Likewise, the suitcases were already in the guest room. I had actually just moved them out of the way when we were positioning the crib and they ended up staying there.
We had originally planned built in bookcases but as my due date neared and my nesting reached critical levels, we opted for the plumbing pipe shelving for the sake of speed.  Once installed though, I couldn’t be happier with the choice.
