Happy

Lots of DIY and sentimental pieces all in one place for my little girl

Oh Happy Day was a party for a colorful little girl on a warm spring day. The sun, clouds, and heart-shaped raindrops were incorporated throughout the house, accented by tons of bright colors and traditional birthday party decorations. We envisioned an old-fashioned home birthday party, updated with fun decorations and the now mandatory bounce house.
I am constantly searching out unique childrenswear looks for my blog, Mama’s Heels, and couldn’t resist the urge to incorporate a playful design aesthetic into Anna’s special day.

I love all things vintage, antique and old so this was my theme to work with and as a collector of fun, quirky pretty things it didn’t take me long to gather the starting points of my daughters room from around my house. Her room is a beautiful place to spend time, its calm, warm and inviting.

I wanted a happy, fun and neutral room for our soon-to-be born twins. The bright orange color on the feature wall makes me smile every time I walk into the room. Dad and grandpa painted the room a few months ago, and the rest of the nursery came together slowly since then.  All the furniture is neutral-black, white or grey, and other than the cribs, can be used in other rooms in our house once the twins are older. The biggest splurge was the chair. I opted not to go for a rocker/glider, so that we can use it in our basement family room later. Also, the chair is big and deep enough for me to doze in since there was no room for a day bed in this small room.
