Clara’s Garden Nursery

Description

All the rooms in my home are very neutral, so I was excited to go with a very romantic girly style of nursery for my daughter's nursery. The first thing I found was this beautiful "English Garden" wallpaper by Caitlin Wilson, so I built around that. I wanted to incorporate some little animals as well, so I thought of some animals you might find in a garden and incorporated them around her room. I introduced the animal theme through the prints above her dresser and continued the theme with the deer bookends in her closet, the owl lamp and sound machine, and the basket of bunnies beside the crib. We were lucky to receive tonnes of books at our baby shower, which gave me the idea to build shelving in her closet using IKEA's billy bookcases. Before adding the bookcases, we painted the closet pink to add another pop of colour. The closet allows us to neatly store both our daughter's clothes, numerous books and some other cute nick-nacks. We added 2 doors from IKEA to the bookcases to hide all the cluttery things (i.e., boxes of diapers/wipes, extra creams and lotions, baby shampoo etc) which keeps everything close for convenient access but it's still tidy looking. Overall, I am really happy with how the nursery turned out!! I definitely splurged on the designer wallpaper and RH bedskirt, but many of the items in the room were purchased from very affordable shops such as Walmart, Wayfair, Bouclair and Winners.
