Nadia Shows Us Her Nursery...

I LOVE looking at nurseries. Even though I don't have any babies of my own, it's always nice to see how people decorate a NURSERY. I've never done it, but one thing I know is that nurseries are NOT what they used to be! I remember when women would choose a PINK room for a girl & a BLUE room for a boy - it was that simple. Nowadays, nursery decor has come a long way!


Moms-to-be are thinking OUT OF THE BOX for their newborn babies - they're deciding on unique color schemes, less Disney & more original artwork instead.

I've been blessed that my ABC customized kids print has been chosen as part of decor for so many kids rooms. In fact I'm definitely seeing A LOT more creativity when it comes to children's rooms & it's always nice to know that the children themselves may pick up on that.










In this post, I'm highlighting a little BOY'S nursery. It's by Nadia of House 36 blog and as you can see...... it's not your typical BLUE room. 






















































So, what do you think? Do you prefer creativity in a kids room over the same ol' same ol??




A great book that I'd recommend for inspiration is Rooms For Kids by Susanna Salk & Kelly Wearstler. AND...Thank you Nadia!!

Emily Decorates Her Daughter's Room...(Via Made By Girl)

Blogger & Interior Designer Emily Clark sent us these few pics of her daughter's room. I thought it was so fun! It's great to have a mother who knows how to decorate & helps with the decor in a little girl's room right?! For me, I really thought the monogrammed pillows were a great touch as well as the cute HOT PINK lamp bases!

Oh & let's not forget that HUGE polka DOT wall....oh yea! It was sweet to see that Emily managed to find a place to hang my Love Candy print in a cluster of framed art on one side of her daughter's room! Thanks for sharing Emily!

Looks great don't you think?

Made By Girl Here & There....

Always great to see Made By Girl prints designs displayed in homes all over the world! The Love Candy DESIGN below is actually a CUSTOM 24x36 CANVAS that was purchased by Julia of TysonandJulia blog. 


This is such a great size for a larger wall space... fills it up that much better don't you think?  We normally make 16x20 canvas sizes, but if you 're interested in a custom size like Julia's, then just email us the size & the color you'd like! Or you can play with the colors here.






This gorgeous dining area is from Janell's home over at Isabella & Max Rooms blog. I love the way she placed the 'I love you, blogs & coffee' print onto the chalkboard, clever!


The screenprint below is the kraft one, you can find it here.











Thanks ladies for taking these pictures!

A 10 Year Old's Room by Giannetti Designs...(Via Made by Girl)

Brooke Giannetti over at Velvet & Linen blog has agreed to share her daughter, Leila's room with all of us. She designed this lovely girl's room with her daughter's growing tastes.  

She NO LONGER craves PINK, but more "mature" colors. (A true sign that your little girl is not growing up).  Brooke's daughter is now 10 years old and for Leila's B-day, mom told her she could re-decorate her room! 

WOW....I remember being 10 years old....I was STILL sharing a room with my little sister!! Leila is a lucky girl!





The design starts with a trip to Anthropologie where Leila chose a beautiful and colorful flowery rug!  I love the vintage feel of the room as well as the architectural details on the ceiling. 










Below: beginning the process








And...how about all that FRAMED artwork hanging on her wall??! How cool is that? I've always thought creative-type spaces (like this one) really open up a KIDS creative energy!



Great job Brooke!
