Shop Suggestions
I know we are here to feature a “Real Room” on this Monday but before I get to the goods I have to acknowledge Mom Brandy’s darling business, Pixie Purls. Knitting is one of those hobbies sitting on my wish list (somewhere between take tennis lessons and live abroad). I’ve enjoyed a few brief lessons from loved ones but have yet to master the art. If you are one of the lucky ones and are searching for perfect little patterns to knit for the babies and toddlers in your life, look here first! It’s easy to see what inspires Brandy to create such beautiful patterns. For her 2nd daughters nursery however, a quilted cover from Pottery Barn Kids and Shabby Chic a la Target provided the inspiration Brandy needed to pull together a magazine look for a whole lot less. Now that baby Rowan has arrived to enjoy her room, we hope the talent behind an online knitting business adds a knit owl pillow or knit mobile next to complete the look!

Totally Adorable!!!! If indeed you can not find the matching changing pad let me know please…I would love to sew one for you! Also consider a “plain” hamper that we could “upscale ” to match! I have considered in my etsy store doing “custom” bedding and pieces for home decor as when I looked for a pattern for a cradle(if you go to my blog…and check out my older posts you will see the start of it) I had to make my own pattern up. If you check out my ETSY store right now…it is empty as a little nest…but I have been busy with the nursery here for my 1st Grandbaby(SIGH) but would love to help if you need it! Hugs to you and the new baby!

Love this! The tree is my favorite – I have been debating on if I should put one in my 6 year olds room. We found some great little mod bird decals at walmart the other day – for those who may be looking!

hi Brandy,
The room is so beautiful in its simplicity. It is always best to have your own theme – yours is so unique. As I keep telling my readers, buy the comforter/quilt that you like first.
It can give you the theme for the rest of the room.
I love the fact that you have only put up a few of the birds on the wall – it is so easy to go overboard with designs.
Beautiful. Rowan is a lucky baby.
Thanks
Richa

What a beautiful room! I would love to sleep in it! You did a great job putting it all together using products from different stores.
