Nursery Reveal

I feel so blessed to be sharing with you my nursery design for our little girl on the way. This is a space I’ve been dreaming of for years. I collected a few pieces here and there over the past few years just waiting to fill this room. Babies don’t need elaborate nurseries, or even a dedicated room to just them if you don’t have one, but to me it’s creating energy. This room is peaceful, creative, a little whimsical, and dreamy. It brings a sense of play and wonder that I hope my daughter feels every day. Take a look at the reveal as well as the vision board I created before the real room took shape.

Linking the pieces that I can, or at least similar ones. Thanks for coming to the blog!! XO G

What I’m Shopping For: Storage Benches

Hello and welcome back! After a few months off, I am back, hoping to bring more design series to you. I’m starting off with a fun one; What I’m Shopping For. It seems like you can never have enough opportunity for storage. My bedroom accent pillows are taking over our floor, and a place to get your socks on each morning sounds like a luxury! I’ve been looking for a bench to elevate our master bedroom and provide functionality. I’m sharing a few options below all under $200. The second bench stands out to me with the accented curved legs. Now, when will I add it to the cart? Which one is your favorite?!

Happy Shopping – xo, G

Monochromatic Jungle Nursery: Budget Series

We’ve all seen the neutral nurseries. Cream is the color! But what about sticking to all blues, purples or pinks?! Today’s nursery was inspired by my first neutral nursery, but I wanted to stray away from the cream colored palette. I found myself sticking to a blue gray color base. The rug is our pop of art here, with the coordinating wall color. But the rest of the pieces and colors are very monochromatic. I think this design is peaceful in a way, with a lot of room to grow for styling if you’d like. Maybe add another pop of color to the crib sheets or changing pad cover. When sticking to a budget, the big pieces are where your money is going to go, but keep the décor simple and you still have a perfect space for your little cub to grow. Today’s total was $1,162. Just one more week of sticking to a budget here! Haha. I hope you are enjoying this series. We’ll see you back soon – XO, G

Sugar & Spice Nursery Design: Budget Series

Another Friday, another design! And this weeks design kicks off our 2nd series, designing on a budget! Don’t get me wrong, I tend to have expensive taste and want to pick the best of the best, but we can’t always go crazy and spend $5,000 on a bedroom makeover. I also have a degree in Accounting and who doesn’t love to budget a little to see their bank account grow? Keep your money circulating though to see it come back to you, and you have the best of both worlds! So today we’re combining design and budgeting in one. I’m a firm believer that spaces, colors, and pieces that surround you will influence your energy and moods. Creating a space for your baby and kids will be that much more special to both them and you. I’m setting the budget for these next 4 nurseries to be under $1,500! We’re putting most of the budget to the big pieces; the rocker, crib and dresser. As for décor, you can stay fairly simple with bookshelves, frames that you could thrift and fill with Etsy prints, and I love wall decals or peel & stick wall paper to fill an accent wall. Paint can also be an easy room transformation, but the supplies to do so can get expensive. I budgeted on the higher end at $100, but that may be a spot you can save on! Let me know if you have any budgeting questions, or if there is something you want to see on next week’s saving design. Thanks for stopping by! XO – G
