Angel Toile Nursery

Description

I designed my daughter Evy's room around the Braemore fabric "Angel Toile." I wanted a British/European/elegant feel.

Design Inspiration

I found an inspiration image online that inspired this room. I tracked down the fabric and went from there!

Decorating Style

I LOVE neutral, soft colors. I decorate with those tones throughout my entire house, so this soft nursery came naturally. I lean toward a traditional, European style with a cottage/shabby influence.

Project Details

All of the furniture in Evy's room is second-hand (painted and refinished). None of her furniture was bought as a "set," which I love. I tell people all the time to just buy pieces where they love the SHAPE of the piece--you can always paint it to match your room!

Favorite Items

The letter that my dad wrote to my daughter when she was born. It's priceless!

Advice

I create a home binder where I keep inspiration images, swatches, etc. It's a great way to find out what your style is and plan projects. Start with an inspiration image, or a good piece of fabric, and slowly go from there. Don't buy just to buy. Be conscious of your choices and stay within your goals. Also, don't heavily "theme" a room if you like this look. I wanted Evy's room to be classic and timeless. I wanted the fabric and decor to be able to grow with her.
