I am continuously amazed at how the wallpaper trend has withstood the test of time! For over ten years, I have been incorporating wallpaper into my designs. At first, clients were a bit skeptical as to how long this trend might last. Wallpapers were all permanent at...
Predicted as one of the breakthrough design trends of the year, acrylic is now popping up everywhere. If you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you’ve probably seen it. I got on the acrylic train way back when and luckily the trend only seems to be...
Often times when I speak with a new client, there is one special piece that they want to have incorporated into their design. Sometimes this is an inspiration item such as a statement glider, while other times it’s an element of sentimental value passed through...
Over the years, I’ve worked on over 200 design projects (although I haven’t done a full count in a while, so it’s probably more now!). In all that time, I’ve only worked with a handful that didn’t have some kind of space challenge in the nursery. Very few...
I know that many of my readers come to the blog to gather inspiration for their own nursery designs. One of my designs that’s been the most popular over the last year is the floral nursery I designed for Jessi Malay. I get so many questions and comments about...
Sometimes when I’m working on a nursery design, I’m presented with a unique challenge. For this modern boy’s nursery, it was the shape of the room. It’s hard to tell in the photos, but this nursery is actually kind of triangular shaped. Yes, it’s a...
If you’ve been following my work, you’ve probably noticed that I’m very partial to quality furnishings and decor, and I advocate for investing a bit more in pieces that will last. It’s so worth it to have nursery decor that will grow with your child so you...
I hate clutter. There, I said it. Kitchens with glass cabinets so you can see inside of them? Nope, not for me. I wouldn’t call myself a minimalist, but I definitely lean minimalist. I like to keep a tidy home with little clutter, and if you can believe it, mu...
It’s nursery reveal time again! I had the pleasure of working on a nursery design for the super talented Melissa Molinaro. She and her husband had just purchased a new home and were able to move in mere weeks before her due date! The home was a total clean slate....
I was recently asked during an interview about my thoughts on nursery trends. Specifically, I was asked if there were any nursery trends I’ve seen over the years that were majorly popular and then took a huge nose-dive. I laughed, and mentioned a few, but then...
It’s time for another nursery e-design reveal! This one was really fun to design even though we had a challenge right from the start. My client really loved florals and wanted a removable floral wallpaper accent wall. After she sent over her photos of the room, I...
Last week sometime, I was browsing around Instagram, as one does, and came across a photo of a dress. This dress was so stunning, that I stopped and stared at it, found out who the designer was, and then stared at it some more. But here’s the thing, I’m...
I’m super excited to finally reveal this nursery I’ve been working on for a very special client, Sierra Dallas. In case you’re not familiar with Sierra, she is known for her hilarious and relatable YouTube videos. She doesn’t hide who she is, and she’s not afraid to...
A few months ago, I was approached by DockATot to create a series of design boards centered around some of their most popular patterns. This board is the one I created for their Carrara Marble pattern—modern and glamorous, but also versatile enough to work for a boy...
A few months ago, I was approached by DockATot to create a series of design boards centered around some of their most popular patterns. This board is the one I created for their Natural Buffalo pattern—super neutral and versatile, and goes with practically anything! I...
Nursery lighting is super important. Aside from the fact that nurseries need lots of options for lighting depending on baby’s sleep schedule and time of day, lighting is also a design element. Even if you have a small nursery that doesn’t have a high...
