The more I get to know The Little Market, the more impressed I am with the products that they offer and the great impact they have globally. If you haven’t stumbled upon The Little Market yet, they are a nonprofit fair trade shop who offer ethically sourced,...
Often times when I start working with a new client, they have one or two pieces already in mind for their space. They have found an inspiration item, but then get stuck as they try to build a full design around it. These base items can be anything from an inherited...
The increasing popularity of bold patterns and colors in nursery design has led to more and more brands making products with these fun patterns. Enter the crib sheet. In previous years, a solid or a simple stripe would do. Baby bedding as a whole is fairly simple...
A while back, I was contacted by an E-Design client to help her pull together her nursery design. I’ve been so busy with designs that I haven’t had time to reveal them all, so I’m using some of my quarantine time to get some older projects published....
The excitement of a new baby often brings a decrease in time and energy for self care and mental health. The addition of a new family member can bring stress, nerves, and anxiety (not to mention lack of sleep). Be sure to prioritize yourself as much as you can during...
I’ve worked quite a bit with Scandinavian nursery decor this year. So many of my clients have been asking for black and white nursery designs with modern accents! The E-Design below is one that I created for a client who was in love with the contrast of a black...
Choosing the perfect nursery rocker is one of the most important decisions you will make for your nursery design. So many expecting parents underestimate the amount of time they will spend in this seat! Unfortunately this can also be one of the most expensive elements...
It’s time for another “Get the Look” post, and I have chosen this light and feminine floral nursery designed for Los Angeles local, Irene Khan. I get so many questions about this nursery, so I though it would be a good one to redesign for you! The...
I have never been a huge fan of animal print, but one of the main reasons for that is because there just weren’t as many great options available several years ago. Nowadays, leopard “print” can now can mean so many different things. This includes much more...
This week, I am sharing another nursery e-design reveal! But this time, the design was created around a fairly atypical theme—bees! This client came from a long family history of beekeepers, so we wanted to find a way to reflect this in a sophisticated way. The result...
I was recently working on a nursery design for a client, and we did a little work in her toddler-aged daughter’s room as well. Her daughter loved butterflies, but we didn’t want to overwhelm the space with too much. I opted for some simple and very...
A while ago, I received a new rug that I had ordered for my home. When I unpacked it in the room, the chemical odor was overpowering. Luckily, the rug wasn’t for a kid’s room, but it easily could have been. Unfortunately, this is an issue that occurs so often when...
With the start of the new year comes Pantone’s announcement of their color of the year. This new shade will make its way through the fashion, manufacturing and, of course, the interior design industry. This year’s color, Classic Blue, is a bright and cheery blue hue...
Plaid is a pattern that we see a lot of around the the wintery months, so I thought this would be an appropriate time to share a plaid inspired nursery look. Some may find plaid and tartan a strange choice for a nursery because it can read as seasonal, but as long as...
I love finding nursery decor that has a fun whimsical element while maintaining a sophisticated feel. Designing with a very subtle theme instead of going overboard is a great way to create a space that will grow with your baby and will feel more sophisticated. That...
Finding special gifts for the holiday season should be a joy and an exciting time, especially when it comes to buying presents for the little ones! With the majority of gift-buying being done online these days, the stress of crowds and traffic can be avoided. All that...
