Rexton’s Modern Zoo

Description

As soon as I found out I was having a boy, I immediately started searching for the perfect bedding collection to start my design process. After many weeks of scouring the internet, I found the bedding that I absolutely loved with a color palette that was both calming and stimulating.  I didn't want anything that was typical for a boy or that was too baby-like. I am so thrilled how it turned out and hope our little angel enjoys it for years to come!

Design Inspiration

Project Nursery was a huge design inspiration, as well as Etsy.com. The Michael Miller Zoology bedding in Aqua was the start to my creation.

Project Details

Rexton's Nursery was a huge combination of various retailers and small shops on Etsy. I love that there are so many hand made elements that really give the room a special personal touch.

Advice

Have FUN and there is no such thing as starting too early! I began 14 weeks in and didn't finish until right before Rexton was born. It is important to have your husband/significant other help you in the process as it is a memorable experience and you will both appreciate the final product :)
