Brady’s Rustic Cabin

Description

Brady's nursery is a combination of all things old and new, handmade and purchased,  tied into one theme: Rustic Cabin.

Design Inspiration

I really wanted something different - not your average nursery - and I worked really hard to achieve this through DIY projects and researching Project Nursery(!), blogs, pinterest etc for ideas. My second goal was to make it as cost effective as possible. I'm a girl that LOVES a bargain! Mission accomplished.

Decorating Style

DIY, rustic, chic, vintage, masculine

Project Details

Pottery Barn Kids, Etsy, Craigslist, Yard Sales, Pinterest, Project Nursery

Favorite Items

DIY barrel pendant, distressed dresser from Craigslist, bird mobile, crib and birdhouses made from books, ladder

Advice

Research before you buy! There's almost always a promo code to use when purchasing online (retailmenot.com), check Craigslist, yard sales and thrift stores - and when all else fails, MAKE IT! It'll be more special that way anyway.

subaec01,

Coat hooks! :) They are screwed into the ladder bars and then I just pushed them through the weave of the baskets. I got the baskets at Marshalls.

I love the baskets in the ladder!!! How did you attach them and where did you get the baskets from?
