On January 1, our household grew — my sister, Andi, welcomed a gorgeous child woman, Gigi. She has numerous darkish hair and cute little Cupid’s bow lips, and we’re all slightly taken along with her. I’ve been chomping on the bit to design one other nursery (Final 12 months, we made-over a nursery for our pricey mates, the Fullmers), and Andi, who already has wonderful style, had a whole lot of nice concepts: She likes dramatic purples, lotions, and yellows; items with a whole lot of conventional appeal; and tender, female touches. Right here’s what I’m pondering for a temper board:
Store Gigi’s nursery
The crib, the dresser, gentle fixture, shadowbox body, swaddles and the chair are all a part of our CLJ x Pottery Barn Youngsters assortment. I particularly love the turned wooden particulars — I believe this provides a wealthy, conventional accent that feels actually timeless. The glider and ottoman have a curved silhouette and include numerous upholstery choices, however I really like the simplicity of the white/cream on this temper board.
The mirror can also be from our Pottery Barn Youngsters assortment, and I adore it as a result of it’s gilded and substantial and feels prefer it was plucked instantly from a fairy forest. (Faye at the moment has the identical mirror in her bed room, however I might see it hanging in nearly any room in our home.)
Andi selected certainly one of my favourite rugs from our Loloi assortment: This “Rosemarie” rug is antique-inspired with numerous delicate lavender and oatmeal loomed all through.
Initially, I actually thought that we should always do two-tone paint: maybe the the underside in a deeper purple, and the highest in a lightweight lilac? However the temper board was feeling a bit flat to me. I believed we might cowl all of the partitions with a gallery of good-looking artwork prints, however this room has a little bit of an odd form. There could be six or 7 partitions. Wallpaper does wonders for rooms like this. It actually ties every part collectively and makes it feel and look cozy. And if you wallpaper, you don’t want a lot else on the partitions!
I checked out so many wallpapers. I didn’t desire a sample with purple in it, however one that might praise the deep plum of the wainscoting — one thing that had a separate vibe altogether. I discovered this stunning floral wallpaper, and it actually clicked for me. It was such a gorgeous backdrop to all the different parts within the room and on the temper board.
I actually love guide ledges as a result of they convey in one other sample and tone, and so they additionally really feel actually beautiful and female.
The cloud items are literally wall artwork that gentle up! It is a good whimsical contact for a nursery, and I like pondering of the tender glow they’ll emit at evening, when it’s bedtime, and every part is quiet and peaceable.
The hampers are literally a double take for the laundry basket in Faye’s room! They’re certainly one of my favourite finds for this room, and I see Andi utilizing these for additional diapers and toys.
The butter-yellow curtains are room darkening, and I additionally included a blackout roman shade. That is important for any child’s room. (Night time coaching begins early!)
We ordered every part you see right here, and the final items are scheduled to reach within the subsequent two weeks, so keep tuned as we convey this little woman’s room to life! Within the meantime, Chris and I are going to get portray ASAP. (Portray blended with child snuggles, after all.)
