friends! Caroline’s nursery, finally…I had a few sneak peaks
along the way, but I couldn’t leave you hanging any longer.
office” to a sweet abode for our little peanut, I am ecstatic at the finished product
and know that loads of joy went into each and every detail. What
was supposed to be a fairly gender neutral space quickly changed into a world
of pink, and I am so happy we decided
to go all out.
Crib, Bedding, and Dresser/Changing Table
To contrast with the French Grey finish, I ordered bedding that had a clean
palette of antique white/linen with pops of pastel pink. I absolutely love it!
For those of you scared over the bumper, we’re keeping it in for now {because
she’ll be sleeping in a bassinet in our room when she first comes home}. Then
once she moves to her nursery, the bumper will come off)
room, we needed to make the most of our space, and we knew having a dresser
that served a dual-purpose was a perfect solution! The dresser offers so much storage room for her necessities and then we ordered a topper for easy
diapering. Even better, the topper is removable so once she is potty-trained,
Caroline will have a fully functional {and
still gorgeous} dresser.
Nightstand/Lamp/Chair/Rug/Curtains
subtle lines to give it that “vintage” look. For the table lamp, I went feminine
and girly. The base is a rubbed gold/silver matte finish and
the shade is a flax/linen with appliqué flowers. And, the chair…sure, there
were less expensive options, but the ease of having a slipcover rather than upholstery won me over. We can throw the cover in the laundry and have a
clean, almost-like-new chair in no time!
this was a necessity since we have hardwood floors…little bit needs
some form of traction! I love the pale pink/antique white pattern—it’s comfy, too! And finally the curtains, these lovelies turned out to be the perfect shade. We paired them with thick brushed
silver hardware with crystal glass finials and clips, and I think this has to be my
favorite spot in the nursery.

Walls
an eclectic mix. Over the changing
table is the reclaimed wood print I had been eyeing for a LONG
time. It’s the song my Mom always used to sing to me when I was little so it
has that sentimental factor, too. For the gallery wall, I
wanted to switch it up with framed quotes, pictures, and other odds and ends…accents
we hope to add to as she gets older! There is the wall ledge with other frames as well as the wire card holder for storing sweet cards from loved ones.

Closet
Oh the closet, well, I take it back, maybe this is my favorite part of the room. We had custom built-ins added to house all of Caroline’s essentials and the organization is perfect for my Type-A self. I’m hoping this will help Jeff learn where everything is, too! I wanted everything to have a proper place which is why we invested in some great canvas bins and totes. All her outfits are categorized by size…foolproof, even for Daddy. And yes, I know we have gone way over on the clothing situation-I make no apologies, though, because baby girl frills and dresses are just too cute to pass up.

So there you have it!! I hope you all like it as much as we do…Jeff has been catching me in there practically every night, reading “The Happiest Baby on the Block” and just rocking away, trying to pass the time-I’m officially ready for someone to come!
So beautiful! definitely inspiration if baby #2 someday is a girl!
