One of the first rooms I ever did was a nursery seen HERE. Still to this day one of my favorite rooms I have worked on. Since then, the baby's abode has become one of my favorite rooms to do. There is something about making a home for a new baby that really excites me. I wanted to share with you one that I recently completed. The owners are a very fun couple who don't mind a little flair. When the owner came to me with this picture of Jenna Lyons child's room as a starting point I knew it would be a fun project.
I had been hesitant to post it since at first glance it looks very similiar, but after hearing Celerie speak about not being afraid to incorporate others ideas I feel a lot better. Plus, the paint is the common theme but from there we went our own direction.Love this artwork the client found on Etsy. Did I mention I have some very creative clients?
Just a peek at 2 more things in her house. First this chair. My client got it for next to NOTHING at Cottage Living's garage sale and we reupholsetered it. I have to give credit to the upholster on this one for doing such a great job. Before:
After:
Second, these dining room chairs. I have confessed my obsession with velvet stripes before and here you have just one example. Although they look WAY better in person, you get the idea.
***I would like to state for the record all these pictures were taken by me, not a professional and the rooms were not staged. That is on my to-do list***

first off i have to say that i agree with celerie...no fear of copying. you took an idea and made it your own. that nursery is so amazing, fun and youthful. the stripes on the ceiling with that red drum shade are incredible. secondly, the first nursery that you did is heavanly! when that day comes around, i am going to get you to come and help me out with mine. i want it to look just like that. the rug, crib, light fixture are just so...pretty.
