Description
ModShabbyChic? i found a quilt on etsy that i just loved and that was the catalyst for her room. it turned out much girlier than i would have ever planned (with faux crystal accents! who knew?) i absolutely adore it though.
Design Inspiration
her quilt that i found on etsy... made of vintage stips of material. and a strong desire to steer clear of pink and purple.
Decorating Style
old --- i like old things. i want my style to look as though its been there forever and not just like i ran out to pottery barn and purchased a girls nursery.
Project Details
My favorite DIY was the shelves. Purchased from Target, i also bought wrapping paper and lined the back of the shelves. Everyone always comments on that. I had seen it in several magazines and on tv, but this was the first time i attempted it. Major hit!
Favorite Items
Her bumper. I made it. I purchased a plain white bumper from Ikea and used fabric glue to apply strips ribbon in a random order. I really, really love it!
Advice
Don't get in a hurry. When you try to accomplish a look that should feel like its been there for some time, it actually takes time. Don't think that you can run to 5 different stores in one day and accumulate the small details that make a room yours.

I like that you did a sort of mix-and-match with this nursery and everything turned out so lovely. But yeah, I agree with butterscotch. Do you have photos of better quality?
