Description
I have always been a big fan of old Hollywood stars, especially the 50's decade. When I found out that I was expecting a little girl, I knew I had to incorporate my love for vintage Hollywood into her nursery. I also didn't have a lot of money to work with, so most of her things were found at a thrift store or hand me downs that I DIYed. I also had friends and family who made things too. It's a timeless room that will grow with her and didn't break our bank!
Design Inspiration
Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn. They are icons. I started with them and went from there into other various vintage stars that I'm a fan of, and then went into various colors that matched the room's mood.
Decorating Style
Vintage, eclectic, timeless
