Christening Party for baby girl
The party took place at the backyard of a beautiful Greek restaurant on a hot summer day. The guests were around 100 (80 adults and 20 children).

This is a Pinterest nursery if there ever was one! I took several different ideas that I loved and combined them to create a fun, girly circus theme for our new baby girl, Evia. In the last month of my pregnancy, I was nesting like a mad woman! I ended up making or altering the majority of things in the nursery. To be truthful, it’s now my favorite room in the house…I’m wondering why I haven’t put this much work into the rest of the rooms!

I wanted to do something simple and clean for my daughter. Loved the idea of a forest theme and when I found the cabinet, it just all came together…
We will eventually add our 2 year old to this room once she is out of her crib. I wanted to make a room with decor that could grow with them versus being so baby like.
A nursery for my future daughter!
We were SO excited for the arrival of our little man! The “theme” is vintage airplanes/blueprints. A special thanks to all of the friends and family who got us such beautiful gifts to help put our perfect little room together…couldn’t have done it without them!
For my daughter’s first birthday, we wanted a gathering that would be memorable for the family. I look back on the photos of my first birthday fondly, and wanted the same for Piper. I feel very lucky that my Grandma (Grams) and Grandpa (Gramps) are still with us and wanted special memories of everyone together at their home in Victoria. I grew up going to their house, putting on old dresses and having fun with my Grandma. It’s a special place for me and it was wonderful to host Piper’s first birthday there.
When we found out we were pregnant, the ideas for the nursery started flowing! I went on to Pinterest and Project Nursery and started looking for ideas for both boy and girl nurseries. We were in the process of moving in a couple months so I was anxious to get moved in and get to work!
After moving to the suburbs when Rocco was 9 months old, I had the opportunity to improve on our original city condo nursery design in a new setting and in a great little bedroom space. We loved the charming mirrored reading nook with the presence of the central window above the foyer looking out on our front yard. It just felt completely right for the nursery spot. Our city nursery was a bold turquoise color, but I decided to tone down the walls with a basic gray, as I wanted the other elements in the room to pop more clearly (and the closet doors to fade away a bit more). I love placing the crib away from the wall, both for safety and aesthetic reasons. This room lends itself to that central crib placement, as the dominant furniture and light fixture in the room all work on the same plane and in the same line with one another, creating cohesion and fluidity to the eye.
This project is about an elephant themed nursery room. A beautiful handmade nursery mobile with two wall decorations and two stuffed animals will absolutely add some color to your nursery!

I designed this nursery around a simple, clean, minimalist approach. I did not want a space that was cluttery or over-done. Instead I opted for a space with a wall color that could be easily transitioned once we are ready to get rid of the crib, mobile, and tree and make the space work for a growing toddler. I wanted to be sure to layer with texture and stimulate the mind with fun bright pops of color that are balanced the grays and whites.
My husband and I had such a great time putting together this nursery for our little man. We really enjoyed making a majority of the items in his nursery and seeing all of the finished projects come together at the end. I absolutely love going into his nursery and just rocking in the recliner- the room is so peaceful and calm. Our little man will be born in 2-3 weeks and we are super excited to meet him and play with him for years to come in his nursery.
We wanted a clean aesthetic that flowed with the style of the rest of our home which has an earthy modern feel. The goal was to develop a calming space with colors and fabrics that would grow along with our little girl. We kept the walls fairly neutral and used a color palette of poppy red, coral and orchid pink to give the room some personality.

I wanted to avoid a ‘little kid’ or ‘baby’ room all together. I invested in a convertable crib and decorated in a theme that I thought could grow with her and had a touch of baby, but was also more big girl as well. Everything turned out just the way I planned!

Designing a second nursery in our house (his older brother was under two years old when Eddie was born) was all about minimizing extra clutter and unnecessary large items that would have to be stored later (especially if his older brother moved from his crib to an adult bed anytime soon). Therefore, I designed the room around the Bloom Alma Mini Crib. I wanted a smaller, collapsible crib, and I absolutely loved the color. From there, I decided on icy blue walls, orange, navy, and varied shades of green accents (I hand made the simple paper crane mobile with fishing line, 3m hooks, and cranes purchased on etsy.com), and a few neutral pieces to anchor the room. The Animal Print Shop by Sharon Montrose “Babies” prints give a sweet, light touch to the space over the changing table, while the large scale Edward Holland abstract tree print ties the colors of the room together (icy blue, white, lime green, grass green, and an accent of purple).

We had my daughter’s 7th birthday at a local art/sculpture gallery, where she and her guests could build fairy (or gnome) homes from donated recycled materials.
