Even though I specialize in nursery design, a lot of my clients will ask me for help choosing a bassinet. A lot of parents choose to keep the baby close to their bed in a co-sleeper or bassinet for the first few months, so even if there is fully designed nursery, it...

2018 has been quite the year for me, both personally and professionally. It has brought with it lots of new experiences, challenges and changes. I’ve definitely shared more of myself with you in 2018 than ever before (mostly on Instagram, and mostly because my...

I walked into a design showroom last week looking for some blush fabric for a nursery I’m working on. I told the sales person what I was looking for and showed her a sample of the color. She took one look at it and said, “Oh, you’re looking for...

Over the past few months, I was working on a nursery design for Jenna Kutcher. If you’re not familiar with her, she’s an incredible role model—a photographer, entrepreneur, podcaster and advocate for women, body positivity and inner truth. She’s...

A few months ago, the lovely Jessi Malay reached out to me for help designing the nursery for her daughter, Alessandra. They had just purchased a brand new home in Los Angeles and had a completely blank canvas to work with. The first time I saw the space, I was so...
