Pinks & Purples, what could be better?! Today’s color series design is featuring Benjamin Moore’s 2025 Color of the Year – Cinnamon Slate! I’ve also included Tissue Pink, the perfect accent color to lighten the moody purple undertone color. These two colors together led me to florals and lots of pinks. Most of these pieces could be styled in a nursery and keep with your child’s room for years to come. It’s sweet, yet sophisticated. Just what sugar & spice is all about! Take a peak below and let me know what you think! Happy Styling – XO, G
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
