When it came to designing our first baby girl room – I wanted a nursery that matched my husband and I’s personality/style and offered a neutral canvas for the possible next baby. The colors I chose were Turquoise, peach and coral – with burlap accents. Laken means “lady of the lake” so we wanted to bring in the calming elements of the sea to surround her. I spent a long time thrifting and DIY crafting to make this room unique.

A cheerful nursery filled with DIY projects because we wanted to put a touch of love and creativity into maximizing this small space for our baby girl. I’ve never really been a fan of traditional pinks, purples, or themes in nurseries, so I chose some fun colors and textures to make it unique.

For my son’s first birthday party, there was no theme, just lots of bright colors and lots of photos of the birthday boy. The main colors for the party were yellow, aqua and coral. I made a DIY photo “booth” for guests to take photos with fun accessories during the party. To see more of his party, visit icecreamoffpaperplates.wordpress.com.

Creating this room for our sweet baby boy truly was a labor of love! My main goal for the nursery was to create something that was bright and whimsical but not too “babyish”, that way he can grow into it.
A fun, colorful room that would inspire learning and creativity. I also wanted a room that my little guy wouldn’t outgrow right away so I didn’t want to make it too “babyish”.
Baby girl nursery on a budget. I wanted a nursery that had girly aspects without the flowers and butterflies. I had a very small room to work with so it was very important not to get to many pieces of furniture in the room to avoid over crowding.
The moment I found out I was having a girl, I knew I wanted her room to be girly and nothing themed! I began searching online for inspiration and the Finley bedding was what kept catching my attention. I kept with the colors in the bedding for the wall color and other accents in the room.
Ayla’s room is, in my opinion, girly – without being overwhelming or cartoony. I wanted something that would grow well with her, and that had items that could be replaced and still easily matched.
This is our first child which will be a little girl! We wanted something bright and cheerful!
Crisp, Clean Nursery for my baby boy
This was the nursery we made for our first daughter Caroline born in May of 2013. I really didn’t want to break the bank on the nursery so I spent a lot of time online looking at ways I could DIY, or save money.

I knew I wanted something bright, colorful and fun. We eventually found out we were expecting a boy, however, this room is still pretty gender neutral and most of the elements could work for either a boy or girl.
From the moment I knew I was pregnant, I had a feeling I was having a girl. When it was confirmed at 18 weeks that in fact I was having a girl, I went to town. It’s funny that I am not a Pink person myself, but I just loved the look of hot pink and turquoise with gray. Slowly but surely it all came together and now Emma has a place that hopefully she will grow up in. I wanted to put together a room that wouldn’t be just for her infant years, and I think (hope) I have succeeded.
I love neutrals and thought calming gray walls were a great place to start. We slowly added all the colorful accents and the room came together in a really great way. The changing pad and bed skirt still need to be completed, but I am really proud of our nursery that is almost complete!
