Alright, we're in the last stretch of project nursery! Here are some of the little details - none of which really required a separate post - so I just sort of jammed them into one. After I had painted the room a crisp white and installed my Chasing Paper polka dot wallpaper (love!), I knew I wanted to do a little something with the window frame. It was just kind of getting lost in the sea of ... View the Post
project nursery: a gallery wall
Progress on the nursery has been pretty steady going. We just have a few small details to get to that finish line! I had hinted before that I wanted to do a gallery wall above the pink + gold dresser that I refinished. It was a great big blank piece of white wall - perfect for a mish mash of frames. My first step in creating a gallery wall is to always take stock of my frame situation. ... View the Post

What would a baby's room be without a mobile, right? As you could guess, I was itching to DIY something. I did some thinking about the theme of the room and gave myself a good helping of inspiration from other people's projects on Pinterest.

I have always liked the look ... View the Post
the nursery: a DIY ribbon garland
Alright guys, back to the nursery. After we picked out and setup our crib, I knew I wanted to do something crafty to dress it up a little. I could've done a bunting, but I have done quite a few of those before... and then I remembered seeing some seriously sweet ribbon garlands on Pinterest. Winner winner, chicken dinner. I grabbed a bunch of ribbon in my room colours (pinks, turquoise, gold ... View the Post
project nursery: the wallpaper
Back in my original nursery moodboard (which you can see here), I mentioned the Chasing Paper wallpaper we were going to be using in this room. Every now and then, I am contacted by companies who are willing to send samples of their product for me to try out. A lot of time though, the product isn't really something I'm interested in, or is something that I don't think will be relatable to any of ... View the Post
