Description
I wanted something with a vintage feel and plenty of heirloom pieces. I tried to avoid anything too theme-like but couldn't resist the charm of little woodland creatures.
Design Inspiration
I was inspired by the the fox blanket I bought before I was pregnant. We started decorating before we found out the sex so we made the room neutral with my two favorite colors, orange and grey.
Decorating Style
I love americana and antiques from the first half of the last century and I really wanted the nursery to reflect that but without feeling old. My goal was fresh and fun.
