My sweet clients wanted a wall of bright and cheery floral wallpaper paired with a soft pink paint for the remaining walls. With richly stained nursery furniture, neutral bedding, and sweet decorative accents, this fun nursery came to life.
This was a super fun project! I wanted a space that would be able to mature over time, but still feel playful and fun for the current phase. Blue was his favourite colour and just took it from there! We strategically created four zones in this space and I think it turned out awesome!

Choosing the dark and moody masculine theme for my son’s room was a personal and inspired decision. I wanted to create a space that not only reflected his personality but also felt cozy and stylish. The walnut furniture and personalized walnut name sign added a touch of sophistication and warmth that I thought would resonate well with his preferences.
The deep tones of the walnut furniture created the perfect masculine vibe I was aiming for. The idea was to make the room feel both comfortable and stylish. The personalized name sign was a special touch, making the space uniquely his. I believe that the environment we create has a significant impact on our mood and overall well-being, so I wanted his room to be a place he truly enjoys spending time in.
For those considering a similar project, my advice is to really think about the individual’s likes and dislikes. Tailoring the design to their preferences makes the room more meaningful and personal. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different textures, lighting, and unique touches like personalized signs—they can truly transform a space.
Ultimately, the goal is to create a room that not only looks fantastic but also feels like a true reflection of the person who occupies it. Enjoy the process and have fun with the design!
Due to the circumstances I was not able to see the new home in person before putting an offer in, but luckily, being in this field, I quickly visualized it’s potential! Seeing the bay window in one of the rooms I immediately knew I wanted this to be my daughter Leonis room. It was my dream to have a reading nook which she now has as a little girl. Naturally I contemplated making the accent colour pink, but when I saw this rug I knew it was perfect! When you invest in timeless pieces and keep-sakes it can grow and mature with the room. This room turned out so beautifully – it is everything I wanted for her. We also included a wall of toy storage for items that just belong to her (instead of in the shared playroom with her brothers). I think it’s very important for each child to have a sharing space, but also a separate spot that just belongs to them! I hope you love this room as much as I do!

We did not necessarily want to choose a “theme” for baby boy’s nursery, but rather incorporate worldly, natural & earthy elements to bring a calming & grounding effect to his sacred space.
The primary focus was on mixing textures and elements. We went with high quality pieces that would last for years to come and be able to transition with our son as he grows.
The biggest inspiration for the project was all of our worldly travels – on our babymoon, we traveled to France, Morocco, and Italy and wanted to encompass some of those aspects into his nursery.
We are big DIYers and over the last few years, have DIYed a lot of the renovation on our 1960s house. When we found out we were expecting our first child, I knew I wanted to do something fun and special with her nursery. Before we got to the fun stuff like decorating however, the husband did a bunch of research on some bones-work on areas he wanted to improve on the room (things like removing the popcorn ceiling, adding sound-dampening measures to the room etc) and he got to work!
We were gifted a dresser from some friends that had used it with both their kids, so we knew it would be a great project to refresh for our own nursery!
Then, after all that work, it was finally my turn to have fun with designing and painting the nursery (at 33 weeks pregnant too!!)
While I love “themed” rooms and have done my fair share of them in the past, I wanted to design something that would be easy to buy accessories/items for, and not box ourselves into a corner with a too-specific theme. I also wanted to try to design something that in 3-5 years from now, she might still enjoy having as her room.
We are big gardening/nature people, and we also love the feel of mid-century-modern decor, so I took those areas of interest and loosely designed the room around them. I did a combination of MCM and plant shapes for the mural, picked a warm color scheme (most of our house is a combination of warm yellow/green/brown colors as well) and carried that theme throughout the room, by designing and painting some art and unfinished wood decor items to tie the room together!
We’re thrilled with the end result, and it’s been so easy to add items to the nursery, as the colors I used for the mural are very common to find in crib sheets, changing pad covers, baby clothes, stuffed animals etc.
Here’s all the DIY work we did before decorating the nursery

Introducing Remy Carter’s neutral woodland nursery!
There’s something extra special about designing your second son’s nursery. We wanted Remy’s room to feel natural, and simple while also feeling cozy, and warm. The design is something that can grow right alongside him, and the green accent wall is timeless!

We painted the ceiling a navy blue, and the walls more of a teal color. We wanted a dark and cozy room. This was an office-turned bedroom, it has vaulted ceilings and wall was added to enclose the room.
