Stuff We Love

A small home remodel required our girls to share a room.  They wanted it bright, but I had to make sure it would be flexible because of their age differences, as well as allow them to grow in it.

Madeleine’s disney nursery is a combination of modern elements with our favorite Disney characters and quotes.

Over the course of about two months I collected pieces for this nursery and put it together for our little girl’s arrival on December 1st! To be honest, all I pictured was a lot of bright colors and a world traveler theme, and other than that there was no plan! I just always tell people to buy things you like and then it’ll all come together when you’re decorating! I think it’s more fun that way.

I wanted a modern and fresh nursery with a little bit of a bohemian feel.

This nursery was designed for my daughter Judeth before she came into the world and has been so great for her whole first year. We absolutely love her room and before she got here it was a way for us to show our excitement and love for her.

This is a Lilly Pulitzer- inspired nursery. It’s feminine, but not over-the-top pink and is something a baby girl can grow into for a toddler room. I created this for my daughter, who was born in March of 2012.

This is a purple Mediterranean slumber for our second daughter, Ellison Claire.

Enchanted love boxes – a magical box with a 2D character at its center. This human figure incorporates a vintage image to a child face and it is all wrapped in vintage designed patterns. Basically creating an artwork a child can identify with.

We’re mad for plaid in Bear’s nursery, where a Roth + Tompkins bold Burnett Plaid takes center stage draping from an iron crown above the crib.  The rest of the room is finished off with classic sports memorabilia, from the fox hunting prints to the rackets that belonged to Bear’s grandfather when he was a student at the United States Naval Academy.

We moved our toddler from her crib into a big girl bed a few months before her baby brother was due to arrive.  We held onto the bright coral from her elephant themed nursery, and added a light Caribbean turquoise blue as an accent.  Since her bedroom is so large, we went with two twin beds.  While that meant twice the work, it pays off!  I love the look of two twin beds, side-by-side.

When working with baby Kyle’s mom we knew we wanted to do a mustache 1st birthday party, but we wanted to make it a bit different than the usual approach and add a bit of vintage/rustic feel to it.

My husband and I are expecting our first child in December and we wanted to create a transitional grey, white and orange nursery that was both modern yet classic.

A modern safari themed nursery designed by Widell Designs for a stylish baby boy. Wanted to design something playful yet calming for both baby and mommy.

Dillon’s nautical 1st birthday party was held at liberty lands park in northern liberties philadelphia on aug 23, 2014. The entire party had a running theme of sailboat’s and anchors throughout all the decor and details. I wanted to make this party as fun and modern as I could for a first birthday party.

Nicole wanted a pink & gold baby shower, so of course we went with a Princess theme! We had hand-made paper flowers & white trees on the sides.

Caleb’s neutral nursery has a calming feel with pops of bright colors. Fully functional and decorated with pieces that will easily grow with our little guy- this room is simple, fun, and comfortable!

Halloween is one of my most favorite party seasons. From the delicious autumn flavors and creative spooky dishes to the cute kids’ costumes, the cool weather and exciting atmosphere makes for a perfect celebration time.  We wanted to feature our new Haunted Forest Collection and have a spooky but kid-friendly feel. By hunting down DIY tutorials online and borrowing/reusing props, we managed to set up a VERY low budget but spooky Halloween party that had the kids screaming with delight!

Alice’s 3rd birthday Old-Fashioned Ice Cream Party celebration.

Eclectic industrial robot room

Our daughter and husband have their own home, but we wanted to create a modern neutral nursery and guest room in our home for when they come visit. The room will be used for many years and generations to come:)
We went with a neutral color palette & pops of color.
