Description
When we found out we were expecting a little girl, I knew exactly what I envisioned for the sweet nursery. All things soft, elegant, and feminine. I wanted the room to make you feel at ease the second you walked in. I also wanted sophistication, but with hints of little girl coming through in the details.
Design Inspiration
Being a lover of neutrals, I knew the nursery would follow suit. Robin's Egg Blue has always been my favorite color so when I began scheming up the design it started around that color. I knew I wanted soft colors, gentle textures, and a bit of a vintage feel. While pondering my design, I came across a Dash and Albert floral rug that was blue with a soft pink rose detail on it... This made me love the idea of bringing in the rose color through my accessories. I immediately started making an inspiration board focusing on my color palate of Robin's Egg Blue, Rose Pink, Greige and White.
Decorating Style
I have always been drawn to a soft color palate. The moment you walk into our home you are greeted by bright whites, soft blues, and warm grays. It immediately makes me feel relaxed and refreshed... a feeling I hope all my guests feel when they come over! When decorating I like everything to work together so I look for pieces that are neutral, not too busy, and have a unique texture or oldness about them. I love how I might find the perfect living room piece that compliments a piece you might see elsewhere in the house.
Favorite Items
My favorite items would have to be the custom chandelier using the pearls from our wedding, the photograph of my husband and I holding the baby shoes-- this is how we announced our pregnancy, the glider because it is so comfortable, and the bedding! Oh gosh, I'll stop with that, but I really do love everything!!
Advice
Start with an inspiration board. It doesn't have to be as fancy as "inspiration board" sounds... Just collect your ideas. Find a few key pieces such as a rug, or bedding and start working from that. Add elements to the board that show colors, themes, or ideas you love and keep it in mind as a guide while shopping. Also, don't be afraid of white bedding... it is machine washable and bleach-able! Most of all create a space that is special to you in some way or another and enjoy every moment making memories in that room with your little one... That's what I plan to do in just a few weeks! :)
Beautiful! I love this nursery….it is so soft and serene! You can tell this space was well thought out down to every detail.
Beautiful! Where did you purchase the bird inside the frame and the bird cage? Thanks!
I am IN LOVE with this nursery! Are the curtains Restoration Hardware’s frayed ruffle drapery panels in petal? What is the length?
Thank you!
Hi! The blanket looks lovely. Can you tell me where you got it?
I love this nursery! It’s my inspiration for my daughters room. What color are the bamboo shades?

Your nursery is beautiful! I just found out I’m having a little girl this is the theme I immediately wanted to do! I was wondering if you could tell me where you got the blue mirrors?

Also curious about the roman shades from Custom Blinds. What color and name?
There is one frame on the wall next to the windows that seems to be the same color as the RH rug. What paint color is that??
I have the same question as Heidi, where is the blue bird in the frame from? Please respond, this would be perfect in my nursery! :)
Yes the curtains are the RH frayed curtains in petal– the blanket is from Stein Mart, the bamboo shades are from Budget Blinds and I am unsure of the color, the blue mirrors are custom painted by me in Annie Sloan paint. I mixed duck egg blue and white together. The blue bird in the frame came from Hobby Lobby,
Beautiful room! What color is the rug? It looks like it matches the robins egg blue in the picture, but is it the RH Baby & Child Camden Gate rug in silver mist? Thank you!
I love the changing table. Do you know what it is named? I’ve looked on soft surrounding website but haven’t found it. They may not carry it anymore?
What color pink did you use for your frames? Love the subtle, soft pink shade. Haven’t been able to find anything like it. Thanks in advance!
Hi I love your nursery! Is the rug a sage or gray color?
Where is your curtain rod from? I have Windows exactly like this and can’t figure out where to get a rod that will work.
I love this nursery!! The chandelier is perfect – just what I had in mind for my little girls nursery. I noticed you purchased it at Home Depot. Any chance you remember the brand and/or model. Thank you!!!
Hello,

Your nursery is beautiful! I am so inspired by it. Can you tell me the dimensions of the side tables that you got from hobby lobby using as night stands? Also the dimensions of the white table next to your glider? I would so appreciate it!

Where did u get the glass jars with tray on the table?
Can u tell me where the crib bedding is from?
Where oh where is this rug?!
This rug is my favorite!! RH baby only has silver and I really don’t think that is what she used! Maybe they don’t sell it anymore? I have found others that are similar on overstock but I am always worried about the color being different in person than in the photos!
Did u use chalk paint for the mirrors I know u posted they were from hobby lobby but did u have to paint them robin eggs blue
Love it! I’ve been searching high and low for that color curtain in 108 inch length (we have tall ceilings). Where did you find these?
Where did you purchase your glider? I’m expecting in 3 weeks and I’m having a very hard time finding a comfortable glider for the nursery. Please help! Tia :-)
Where is the crib from ?
I love this? What color paint did you use?
What color are the walls? I’ve love to get a paint sample for my nursery.
What color paint is that that you colored the walls? I’m looking for a light greige to paint our nursery before baby girl comes and lover that color!
I just love this nursery! I was hoping to find out where the crib bedding is from? I didn’t see it listed under the sources. Thank you!
This nursery is perfect! Where is the crib bedding from? Thank you!
Hi! Hope you are doing great. I just read your description for what you were looking for in decorating your baby girl’s nursery and it’s like you read my mind. I even think that my baby’s name goes with that nursery. I’m curious to know were did you buy those beautiful curtains.
Thanks,
Curtains are from RH baby and child. We have them too, and love them!! They are so sweet for a baby girl, but can grow with them through teenage years. Worth the investment!!
