Layla Sienna's Nursery Tour
Hi beauties, this post has been a long time coming! I started her nursery early on into my pregnancy when i found out we were having a girl. I didn't think we would have a little lady next so when i found out we were all i could see was blush pink and flowers galore.. i wanted feminine everything..her name, her room, her clothes, etc. I have waited my entire life for a family, i found my soul mate, we had our sweet little boy, and now we have our darling little girl. I couldnt ask for more to have one of each and get to experience both sides. I love having a little boyfriend, the kisses and love he gives are endless and he will forever be my guy. But when we're talking whats more fun as far as styling nurserys and baby clothes go.. id say girl all the way even though its been just 2.5 months of having her here. There are so many more options for girls and so much fun you can do. Im more minimalistic when dressing my son and with her im all about the accessories, fun colors, florals, oh what the heck, a little sparkle even. (:
So when designing her room i wanted to do something feminine and whimsical. I really wanted it to be full of flowers, blushy soft pinks, and specks of gold with a shabby chic touch. Some of it is DIY projects, some of it was a collection of several talented shops who were so sweet to collaborate on this piece with me & help me achieve my vision. I love having something different and special for my kids. I like to do my own thing and thats why picking pieces from all over was so fun! I believe in being original and creative when decorating & finding inspiration from all over the place. Im not about taking other peoples ideas or replicating what someone else has already done, whats the fun in that?. Do what YOU love, design something that you see for your child, something that you think will describe them well and that you both will feel at peace, at ease, and refreshed when you walk into their room. Layla girl, i hope you love your first room, that you wake up to beautiful flowers every morning right above you, that you and i create beautiful memories playing dress up in here, I hope we share many moments on that chair nursing just like I did with your sweet brother, and we get to read books and crawl around your floor. There are so many great moments to come in this special little place of yours.
^^DIY floral wall hang. I was inspired by a flower wall in LA and knew that fresh flowers werent reasonable so i created this little wall hang with a variety of fake ones. ^^^
^^^Gold metal bin holding her swaddles is a DIY gold paint job i did from a yellow bin i found at Homegoods. Her mint floral dresser knobs are Anthropology. The mint diaper bin is also a Homegoods find that happened to be the perfect color. The mint floral ceramic dish (i usually put her lotions/diaper ointment on this) is from World Market.^^^
^^^Pink print design bin (holding stroller blankets) is from Target. The beautiful white dresser is vintage and is the most special piece in Laylas nursery. It was my mothers when she was a baby and she used it growing up. My grandma gave it to Layla as an heirloom. I LOVE it and kept the old paint job. This will be a piece that we will continue to pass along in our family. The gold frame with the floating floral "L" was made for us by my best friend and was a baby shower gift.
^^^ Picture frames were from all over the place, from old ones i painted, to new ones i found over a series of months and months at Homegoods and World Market. I painted some of the newer ones as well. I love each frame, they all have special little details. Our gold decal lacey border around Laylas room is c/o Envisioned Designs and it completes the room and pulls the whole look together, i loooooove it!
^^^i adore this bird cage used to hang all of her headbands and bows. I snagged it up from Homegoods and found the tiny clothes pins at target. They also have gold sparkly clothes pins but i didnt think sparkles all over the place would be very fun, even though they were sooooo cute i almost took the bate.
^^^I had my eye on this floral changing pad cover c/o Lullabies and Lollipops for quite a while. I knew i wanted a floral vintage looking cover to dress up her room. It matches perfectly and adds a bit of color! Theyre offering 10% off one item with code: TESSA10
^^^ Each photo on her gallery wall is special to me and hand selected after months and months of searching for the perfect photos to fill these frames for my little girly. I wanted beautiful words of encouragement, scripture, and beautiful floral pieces that suit her room.
