Description
I wanted a calm and sweet nursery for our first baby. We painted the walls a pale gray and added neutral details with a few pops of color. The furniture is a combination of new and vintage, mixed with some DIY projects. We did a lot of work ourselves, adding crown molding, a Dutch door and wall stencil and shelving in the closet. The room is small, so we maximized space by using a compact dresser as a changing table, removing the closet doors to make it feel bigger, and placing a round crib in the corner. A chandelier and closet lights helped brighten the room.
Design Inspiration
I was mostly inspired by bright, airy nurseries, and added some colored pieces at my husband's urging. Lots of Pintrest and Google searches!

Hi there! Where did you get the tall floor lamp from? I love it and think it would be perfect for our baby girl’s nursery!
Where did you get the baskets on the rod? I am havinng the hardest time finding something like this.
Sarah, the rod and hooks for the baskets under the bookshelf came from IKEA. The baskets came from World Market. The white wall baskets beside the changing table came from Land of Nod.

I think the actual shelves I used have been discontinued. This one looks very similar. Mine are about 45 inches long.
I wasn’t able to find those book shelves on Ikea, do you have different link you can share?
Hi everyone, sorry I haven’t kept up with this posting in a while. If there are still any questions about the nursery I am happy to answer them.

Heptathlete00 – They’re on the website…called Rachael Wall baskets. Pretty sure they’re the large size.
The Seagrass baskets on world market don’t have handles and the one shown here has one. Can you tell me which baskets specifically? Thx!!
Thank you so much! That’s so sweet of you to let me know!
Stephanie we got the bar and hooks today. They were in the kitchen section and called a Grundtal Rail in 31 inches. The hooks are the 2 3/4 Grundtal S hooks. Hope this helps!
I would love to know too! We are ready to hang this exact thing and just need the baskets!
Love this nursery! I found the baskets on World Market’s website. Do you remember if they are small, medium, or large? Also, do you know what the bar and hooks are called? I’m trying to search ikea.com but haven’t been succesful so far. Thanks!
Love it
Thank you I was looking for them too! What size are your picture frames?
Hi! The sea grass baskets came from World Market and the bar with hooks they are hanging from came from Ikea. The mobile was a DIY project, made with felt and styrofoam balls.
Where is the hanging basket system And the mobile from? ;)
Thanks! The color is Blue Whisper by Valspar.
So soft and serene! Love the aqua that you painted the changing dresser. Could you please tell me the color? I also like the touches of pink that make it girly.
