This year has been eventful, to say the least. 2020 has been the busiest year I’ve ever had, in part because I was writing and producing a book on top of working with my clients. Projects have gone on a little longer than normal because of vendor and shipping...
Holiday shopping is going to be weird this year. The way things are going, it may end up being almost exclusively online. And you know what that means—even more longer lead times and shipping delays! Most companies are of course aware of this and have been working...
If you’ve been following me on Instagram, you may have seen some behind-the-scenes videos of this nursery coming together. I used to do a ton of traditional nursery design years ago, like this pink and gold nursery, or this neutral and lavender nursery. Then the...
It’s been an insanely busy year for E-Designs, and I’m slowly getting them all up on the blog. This nursery below was a really fun one to work on because it has elements of so many different things. It’s a little modern, a little bohemian, gender...
Black is a color that isn’t usually associated with nurseries, but over the past year or so, it’s become much more popular. We’ve had a ton of clients ask for either black and white or black accents in a nursery this year alone. The best part is that...
Choosing the right color palette for your nursery is a big decision. There are a ton of different trends and combinations beyond the traditional gender-themed palettes (you know the ones—pink and blue). One combination that I have been getting so many requests for...
As you may know, I’m still working through backlogs of E-Designs that haven’t been “revealed” yet. I’ve been working on so many projects this year that my design reveals have fallen a bit behind! This floral nursery E-Design was from a...
Finding the nursery glider that fits all of your needs is crucial to how much you will enjoy spending time in the nursery. I place so much emphasis on recommending gliders that I know and love to clients. I always want to be sure that clients understand the importance...
I am sure you have noticed the terrazzo trend showing up everywhere recently. With its roots in 18th century Italian and Egyptian architecture, terrazzo has come a long way. The origin of this technique is based on the pressing of stones together to create a...
You may have heard me mention Gray Malin photography before, and it’s because I really love it. So when I got an E-Design inquiry from a client who wanted to design her nursery around three Gray Malin prints, you could say I was very excited! She had already...
One of my favorite elements to source for a nursery is the area rug. It ties the entire design together while softening the space visually and literally. If you ask me, every nursery can use an area rug. Even with carpeted spaces, the addition of a rug helps to...
Black and white nursery decor has definitely been gaining traction in the past year. I’ve been getting so many clients who want to incorporate this high contrast trend! Black and white works great in a nursery because it’s essentially neutral. Almost any...
Often, the crib is the starting point for a nursery design. It is typically the first piece that is purchased by parents-to-be. The decision for a crib then dictates the direction for the rest of the room design. Over the years I have worked with countless furniture...
After such a great response to My Ultimate Guide to Blackout Curtains for the Nursery, I decided to follow up with more great blackout options. For this post, I wanted to show some styles with more color and pattern since the first group was mostly solids. Patterned...
I am so excited to share this e-design reveal that is a recent favorite of mine! I created this look for a North Carolina native who was looking to pay homage to her Southern roots. She referred to her style as “Southern charm meets coastal”. She had a...
It is rare that I come across a client who says they have too much storage in the nursery. You can never have enough! And just when you think you have enough, you don’t. Rather than overload the design with storage cubes and bookcases, I like to try to work in...
