Oh, like Baby, Baby, Baby, Oh...{& a winner}

Posted by MAKMU ta On Monday, August 01, 2011

Remember a few months back when I shared that I was going to be helping to design a nursery for my mom's friend at work? Well, it's about 99% finished, and I'm so excited to show you!

Here's the design board I did initially: 


With a few small changes and a lot of fun color, here's the room as it is now:


Michelle {mama-to-be} and I knew we wanted to forgo the traditional mobile. These pom poms were the perfect solution. We've all seen them in nurseries all over the web, so I was dying to see them in person! The mama-to-be and I both agreed they make the room.
I found a great Etsy shop who makes the tissue paper poms.  We bought a pack of 8 and were able to pick custom colors.  Check out Melody's Pom Pom Shop to get yours!




Look what Michelle made herself! I love that she framed the little one's name...it's a unique twist on the regular painted letters.



Big sis is already trying out the rocking chair:



Once we found the bedding, the color choice was easy....three lavender walls, plus the wall with the crib went lime green.  I love that we stayed away from the traditional pink. How cute is that butterfly bedding??  Clearly I love the room (: We just have to hang a few more pictures on the other walls, then we'll be done and I'll be showing the whole room.
Right in time, too, because little Aria is due in two weeks!


Happy Monday!
Love,

Oh, Baby!

Thank you so much for your sweet feedback on my dresser yesterday...you made my day!


I'm so excited to be helping my mom's friend redo her nursery, in preparation for her new baby girl. I love babies, and I love the color purple, so you know how thrilled I was when Michelle told me she wanted the nursery to be shades of lavender (:  Here's the room as it is now:




Here's the plan:

Three walls in the room will be painted lavender and the wall with the crib will be a lighter green color.  Cute flowy curtains will frame the window.  Printed curtains will replace the bifold closet doors to add more pattern {so excited about this!}, a fun gallery wall of butterfly prints and family photos, big white letters spelling out her name, a glider in the corner, and fun tissue puff balls replacing the traditional mobile {yay!}

{via pottery barn kids, the way we are, baby super mall}


More details on the items going into the room as it comes along (: 


Have you seen any amazing nursery designs lately?! Do share!  I'm so excited to watch this room come together for Michelle and her new baby girl!


Love and Nurseries,
