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 Virtual 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...
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...
I always get so excited when I have a nursery E-Design client from a major city like New York. The architecture and interior style of homes is so different depending on where you live, so it’s fun to work on projects in different areas. Since I’m based in...
I love adding plants to a nursery design. It’s rare that I create a design without including one on a bookcase or side table, and I always bring them with me to style photoshoots. Plants help to add life to a space and can also function as decor to bring in a...
It’s time for another nursery Virtual Design reveal! This one was really exciting for me because I’ve been dying to use a dark floral wallpaper. Dark florals are one of my favorite patterns! This client came to me wanting something really luxurious and...
I’ve been so excited to share this nursery design reveal with you! This year has been crazy for all of us, and because we had to slow down on installations and photoshoots, my publishing schedule definitely fell behind. I completed this nursery several months...
Choosing artwork is arguably one of the hardest parts of designing a nursery. Every client has his or her own style, and artwork is often a very personal choice. With so many options available, it is easy to get overwhelmed by all the choices. In my experience, it’s...
Nearly every single client I have worked with in the last year or so has asked for an acrylic crib. Not only are they visually stunning, acrylic cribs make sense functionally. The acrylic material makes the crib feel lighter. This is perfect for smaller spaces such as...
I’m still working my way through my massive backlog of nursery design reveals! I’ll admit, blogging sometimes isn’t a huge priority, especially when I’ve got a lot of design work to do (which is always). I’m trying to really focus on it...
My favorite type of email is one that comes from a previous client, asking for help updating their nursery or child’s room. I love that I get to revisit homes, spaces and kids that I’ve worked with before, and see how they’ve grown! I’ve worked...
From baby shower through the first several years of your baby’s life, you will undoubtedly accumulate a lot of stuffed animals! Luckily, toys have come a long way aesthetically and don’t need to be hidden in the closet. Stuffed animals have become more...
I’ve done several blog posts where I’ve designed an entire nursery around a single piece. I like to show my clients that anything can serve as inspiration, like a wallpaper pattern, piece of art, or even a clothing item! For this post, I’ve chosen a...
