When photographer Gladys Lara contacted me to help her with her little girl’s nursery, I quite literally jumped at the opportunity. At the time I hadn’t yet started my nephew’s nursery and a nursery is a room I had been wanting to decorate.
I adore nurseries. Probably because they’re most similar to my design aesthetic, cute.
The crib, changing table/dresser, a few accessories and paint color had already been selected for baby Claire’s room but mom was having trouble pulling it all together. Mom Gladys wanted the room to reflect her photography, soft and romantic. She didn’t want the room to feel too girly and wanted to avoid anything pink. I managed to convince her to go with a pink rocking chair and it turned out to be a piece in the room she loves the most.
Here’s the before.
After
I had such a great time decorating this room and now I can’t wait to do more nurseries.
Any preggo mommas out there?
Happy Monday!

Just came across this nursery, and it is one of the most beautiful I have seen. My initial thought to yellow interior walls would have been no, but this one is perfect! Great job working with it. I was wondering if you had info on that wallpaper?
Hi Lindsay,
Thank you so much for the kind words. I really enjoy decorating nurseries. The wallpaper is Cole & Son sweet pea and hummingbirds. Anthropologie sells it too:
