Designing a warm & chic nursery

Wow, it has been a while since I posted. I took some time to re-group after the first of the year, play catch up, re-organize both my house and my life (a never ending on-going process!) and decide how I wanted to spend my time. I have felt out of balance for a while and decided that I needed to cut out some things and add some others. More about that later I am sure, but today I wanted to share an exciting new project I am working on.


I am designing a nursery for a previous client (we designed her darling little girl's room last year) and this time, the gender is unknown. (I love in this age when we can find out so much ahead of time that a couple would wait for the surprise!). So I will come up with two plans, one for a girl and one for a boy.  (The truth is, I have the envelope from the doctor with the gender results but shhhh I am the only one who knows!).


I hope you enjoyed this first look ... these are the inspiration boards I am showing my client to start the process. We will be narrowing our choices down in the next couple of weeks and I will begin to place the orders. 

I hope you are all well - thanks for stopping by! xo

Start today

January 1. I love the idea of a new year. It always feels like such a great opportunity. You know, to start fresh ... the ultimate do-over ... a new beginning. A chance to re-think the way I do things and come up with a plan to change what I don't like.  


I have a lot of ideas floating around in my head and although I have not had time to organize my thoughts, I know that I want to make some changes in the way I work, in the way I spend my time and where I put my focus. 


Happy New Year everyone!
