My goal for this shower was an under-the-sea vibe that wasn’t too juvenile, and I wanted a feminine look without being too pink and frilly. The basic color palette of light and dark aqua along with coral pink was rounded out by grey, purple, and golden yellow. We tried to incorporate decor that could be reused in the baby’s nursery after the shower.
My inspiration was a piece of artwork that was a wave made out of stars and another piece of children’s art called “where the ocean meets the sky”. I wanted to incorporate stars and the sea in the nursery and these pieces of art helped my vision come to life! I had a vendor on Etsy make me a sign that said “where the ocean meets the sky I’ll be Sailing”. Little by little I added designs of the sea and the sky
I wanted something with soft colors and we love the ocean, so this room was born.
Abe is our fourth baby, so we were out of extra bedrooms. The nursery is actually one end of our oversized master bedroom, separated with curtains hung from the ceiling. I wanted the nursery to coordinate well with the other half of the room but still be fun and colorful for a baby.

I wanted to create a room that was calming, inviting & evoked a sweet personality – just like our baby boy! It truly is a labor of love. Most people dream of their wedding dress/reception, I was the girl who always dreamt of being a mom & designing a fabulous, whimsical nursery!

His daddy loves to hunt and we both live in the ocean…wanted to create a “manly” space with my style.

Connor is our first child and being graphic designers, we really enjoyed working on this project and creating artwork just for him.

This is the nursery I created for my son Kyleb. He’s now 3, and it’s been transformed ito a “big boy” room – which was the whole point of the room. I wanted something cool & modern for a baby boy that could be easily transformed into a room he could grow in up until High School.
I wanted to create a baby girls nursery that was not too “baby” and not too “girlie”. I think I succeeded on both ends, and love the result!
I fell in love with this modern under the sea crib bedding before I even knew if I was going to have a boy or a girl. Good thing it could go either way. I was on a very tight budget with this room so I made a lot of what is in the room or I bought something that was very inexpensive and altered it to make it look like more than it was. My only item that I was sad I couldn’t get was the Eames molded plastic rocker. That would have made this room perfect!
A girly version of the ever popular boy nautical themed nursery. Crafted from authentic finds ….like 100 year old oars, real buoys, fisherman’s wheels and nets….her room came together and is ready to set sail!

We had a (modern) whale theme. I first found a Gap whale sweater, then a Polen O Pyret tee shirt and then a sailor hat on diapers.com. Banner, invites, thank yous, signs, cake, cupcakes – all handmade. I made mini whale tail cupcakes as favors, along with a blue candy bar, blue macarons & blue/dark chocolate covered pretzels. I had blue Jello centerpieces with plastic whales and shells in them. The crowning achievement for me was my cake!
