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 e-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 glamorous...
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...
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...
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...
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...
As promised, here are the details for the nursery I’ve been working on in Orange County. This particular nursery is unique because we designed it two ways: one option for a girl and one option for a boy. My client didn’t want to know the sex of the baby in...
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...
