Rust

When my husband and I found out we were pregnant, we knew we wanted to keep our baby’s gender a surprise until birth. With that, came the challenge of creating a gender neutral nursery! I decided I wanted to create a subtle, yet bold gender neutral space for our little one.
I found the sunset/mountain picture at TJ Maxx which became my inspiration.  There were a few things I had my heart set on… a white shiplap feature wall, the hems Ikea dresser with Hirsch and Timber knobs, the lolly 3-1 convertible crib by Babyletto, and some type of bamboo pendant light. I knew I wanted to keep it pretty neutral with creams and ivories but wanted to pull in the terracotta color where I could as my “something bold.” “You are My Sunshine” is a popular song in our household and we thought it was fitting to incorporate it in our new little bundle of joy’s nursery. This room has quickly stolen our hearts and we can’t wait to bring baby home to it.

My wife chose the desert pictures to go above the crib and that is where I started. I love all things boho and the rest of our home has boho elements. I knew that is the direction that I wanted to go with the nursery! The next thing I did was chose a rug so that I would have color inspiration!

We wanted baby Eleanor  to have a minimalist space that she could grow into!

I love a good accent wall. I think it brings the room together in the most perfect way. It is all in the tiny details. Keep it super simple. We love how our baby can grow into this room.

I was so excited to create a loving space for my twin girls as soon as I found out I was pregnant with twins. I opted for a neutral tone so the room has a bright and airy feel when you enter. We picked out the paint color first then chose the decal for the room. We found cribs that are white with wooden legs which I feel tied the whole lookentogether. We wanted a pop of color but still be neutral so we chose cinnamon color and have this pop through some items throughout the nursery.u favorite pieces are the two hanging frames. I wanted something personalized that isn’t necessarily the twins’ names. Since their first names came from plants, I decided to get the willow and ivy leaves custom made into the wall hanging for a personal touch. My most favorite oartnis the shelf area which was inspired by featured nurseries in projectnursery’s instagram page. It took me about 5 months to complete the nursery. There were a lot of items that were out of stock (due to COVID I assumed) that I didn’t have a choice but to just be patient. And it paid off because I absolutely think the nursery is the best room in our house.
