Nursery Sneak Peek

I have been SO excited and anxious to find out the gender of our baby so that I could start working on the nursery. In all honesty though, it's a little intimidating to make the first few "big" purchases (like bedding). Of course I had to enlist the help of my design star bestie Michaela. I sent her over a few colors and pictures and BAM...


She sent back the cutest little nursery that I've ever laid eyes on. Swoon. We are (obviously) going with a color scheme of pink, white, navy and gray. I may or may not look at this picture every single day, sometimes multiple times a day. I'm obsessed. I can't wait to turn this picture into real life. It's so much easier to plan and shop when I have this beauty to reference.

Here's a few of my favorite finds:


I'll definitely keep y'all updated as the nursery progresses. Thanks, Mich, for working your magic! I swear the girl can take any room and turn it into something beautiful. Remember me when you're famous? 

BONUS: Michaela is offering $10 off her design services if you mention this blog post! If you have any room that needs a little design help, she's your girl.

I thought the same thing about her initials! Do you know her name already? Congrats to you for agreeing on a baby name! I love the nursery--it is so sweet and just perfect for a baby girl! :)

Courtney B said...

You and I are totally on the same page... except you've got it all together! I just posted today BEGGING for help with my nursery, ha ha. I really just need help with finding bedding right now because we aren't setting up a nursery until baby girl is a over 3 months old because we'll be moving! Such a pain.
I am LOVING what you'll be doing with her nursery! SO fun!

Elle said...

Kay Sour said...

It is going to be adorbs! love the print and the skirt and the curtains the most!

Jillian said...

the light fixture is too cute!!!!! I have a night light or Juliette that looks similar

Katie said...

Love it! I adore that color combo!
We have the same Ikea chandelier in our baby girl's nursery :) Also, I'm not sure what color you're going to paint (if at all) but we landed on the perfect gray in Sherwin Williams' "functional gray." Every other time I've tried to do gray, it's been blue-ish, but this one is perfect! Just thought I'd pass that along.

Here it is in our nursery:

And ya know..great minds think alike! ;) We were thinking of this color scheme if we have a princess! ;) If it's a prince we're going to still use gray but with a blue (probably Colts blue..let's be serious now lol).

I'm so so so excited for you!!<3 Can't wait to see it all together!

Michaela said...

@happiness is: knobs are from Anthropologie :)

Love it!!! We did something similar with my daughter's nursery: pink and grey with chevron and elephants. =) I love, love, LOVE it!! My bestie actually made her bedding. Best. Purchase. Ever.
