Eclectic, Feminine, Relaxing - Aqua, Tan, Pinks, White, Yellow - lots of color mixing.
Design Inspiration
I started the project looking for a stationery crib and fell in love with the two-tone offered through Stanley's Young America line. From there, I decided to make Baby Girl a quilt, and the colors and style came from the collection of fabrics I selected for the quilt.
Decorating Style
We wanted something that was feminine, but not too young - fit in with the style of our 1940s Cape Cod and had nice little details. We chose tan walls and went with neutral color furniture, so our pops of color would stand out, but the investment pieces would be neutral enough for future little Parkers.
Having the room feel relaxing and cozy was also really important to us.

Advice
Take your time collecting things that mean something. We don't have a lot of things in there, but we love all the pieces we have. AND lastly, decide ahead of time the things you want to spend the money on.
I found most of her fabrics on fabric.com
can you please tell me where you got the fabric for the bedding? I love the aqua and coral circles print.
I love the colors you chose.
Hi! I love your crib and dresser. We are looking at the same ones. Is the wood white (starlight) or creme?
Young America has a preselected color of creme/walnut and can’t decide if I want that or go with white.
That soft felt mobile is gorgeous! And everything in the room, too. It’s simple and elegant, with touches of colors that are mostly light.
Congratulations! I just love the room!! Could you tell me where you got the bookcase from?
Love the floor lamp! I wish they had it in a color I could use.
Did you use a pattern for the quilt? It is gorgeous!!
What color paint is the aqua?? Also would like to know about bookcase!
Love the room!
Love it!
Love, love, love every detail! Great job and congrats on your expectant arrival!
.. and just wanted to know where did you get the book case from>
Thanks!
I absolutely LOVE your nusery! I love the route you decided to take with the wall color, very different but certainly ties the room together with all the little girly touches. I see so many nurseries with keep going to tiffy/aqua blue color or grey for the walls. This is different but very nicely put together.
Good luck with your baby girl! She is sure to love this room!
