Baby Olivia’s room is a tiny Canadian nursery in Shanghai. The ‘Roots & Wings’ owl canvas is a gift painted by mama. A little ‘Woodlands’ felt mobile hangs over the crib, while the initials of baby’s name are teamed with tiny animals & paper lanterns spin over the change table.

Love the detail pictures but would also like to see some of the layout of the room. Really creative and I love that the colors!

I love the artwork above the crib…finally an original use of owls in a nursery! I like this room. I think the color scheme will work well into childhood but it has just enough baby whimsy now for a nursery.

I so love the deep earth colors here that is punctuated by touches and dots of color from the accents you used. I think that this room is one of the most beautiful owl-themed rooms I’ve seen so far!

I love that antique look on that drawer. Is that a really old furniture, or you had it refinished to look old? Great work on this room… I think you’ve done great tying four really disparate colors together. And the finishing touches help too!

I totally adore that mural :) Do you sell your works?
Sarita
Yes, definitely need to take more photos of the layout! (but hesitated because there are still some details missing!)
The old dresser is from London actually! We bought it second hand from a couple in Shanghai who were moving and did not want to take it with them! It is a beauty! Though I am not sure how old it is.
Absolutely! I do sell my works! My blogsite is cocoandcompany.blogspot.com..please feel free to peruse. All of my works are custom and I ship internationally.
Thanks for the kind words!

I love what you did with the paper lanterns, any tips on how I could go about that?
Sarita
Hi Caitlin,
The lanterns are one of my fave parts of the room! Since we live in China, we had a tough time finding the supplies that I thought ideal for hanging. The best would be small metal hooks, the colour of the ceiling (when hung, the hooks hang down and curl back towards to ceiling). I attached them with thin chocolate thread. They weigh virtually nothing and spin nicely when there is a breeze in the room. Babies LOVE this!
I have seen some really cool ways that people choose to bunch their lanterns together. You can bunch many together at one height (making a centerpiece in the room) or vary the heights. It is nice to mix the colours and sizes for some variety.
Good luck!

I absolutely love the wall color! It is the perfect shade of brown. Do you happen to know what color you used?

Excellent job, and I love the large wall art. I am a muralist and it has to be big! The mobile is adorable and I like the fox
