Blogger Stylin’ Home Tours: Favorite Room Edition

|

My favorite room…well, I’ve worked on quite a few rooms in our home at this point, but my favorite of them all is really a no brainer. For those of you who have been around a while, you are probably slightly very sick of hearing about the nursery, but I can’t help it…it really is my favorite room in our entire home.
It’s my favorite because….
When I open the door every morning, there’s a bouncing baby (with the most amazing bed head) who has her arms stretched out over her sweet Jenny Lind crib reaching for me.
Some nights (like last night) she wants me to rock her to sleep. And I oblige. The quiet moments of a baby falling asleep and melting onto your chest are simply priceless.
We read lots of books here and we learn here.
Because every morning upon waking up she insists on putting a bow and shoes on before going downstairs. What, you don’t wear a bow and shoes with you jammies?!
 
Because the afternoon light shining through the windows and onto her strawberry blonde curls after a nap is just about the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.
Sure I still love the Watercolor Peony Wallpaper, but the memories we’ve made in this room will always be my most favorite thing of all. I had been itching to change a few things up, so slowly but surely I’ve updated the nursery since my initial post about it here. Well, here it is…my favorite room…
little girl nursery, wall paper, floral wallpaper, baby girl nursery, nursery design, home tours, vintage nursery

One major change was this wall. Originally there were 5 vintage prints and a table lamp. The proportions always bothered me, so I decided to start over. The mini gallery wall and gold sconce make it feel fresh to me. We also love the sconce for reading bedtime stories.

Another really fun and easy project was the turn the shoes that she took her first steps in (fitting that they are gold glitter Toms, right) into art for the nursery. I just glued fabric around a piece of cardboard and then glued shoes on. Literally a 2 minute project.

 

 

 

Another big change was adding the lattice rug. It used to live in our mater bedroom, but since we are getting a new one soon, I was happy to bring this one into the nursery. It makes the space so much brighter and I love it.
If you don’t know the story about the inspiration for the nursery, it was very much influenced by our trip to Paris, and this Laduree bag in particular. I was so enamoured with the ambiance there (and the macaroons, of course) and thought that it was so fitting to center a perfectly girly nursery around. I love that the bag still hangs in the nursery.
The gallery wall was originally here over the changer, but since you can’t really see it when you walk into the room, it’s definitely better on the opposing wall. Once I saw this Lindsay Letters print at Hobby Lobby though, I knew it would be great for this wall though. I am obsessed with the colors (of course!), but I also love the quote “The World is Lucky to Have You”…so sweet, right? The amazing tassel garland adds the perfect touch of whimsy.
To make the print a little more personal, I added gold hardware brackets to the frame, for a more custom look.

 

The Louisiana art is actually a blanket that my sister gifted to Landry. One day it will be framed somewhere, but for now I love the color that it adds to her closet. She even monogrammed her initials on the Parish (remember Louisiana doesn’t have counties) where I am from…which happens to be St. Landry Parish…ahhhh get it? 🙂

 

This little situation makes me happy…

 

Fun idea…use an old mannequin to display bows and headbands. I also left my wedding veil on to display.
And this my friends, is why I love this room so much. So many moments like this that melt my heart…

    Mal you have truly outdone yourself!! this is amazing, beautiful and fabulous! I wish it was my room haha LOVE the toms and the wallpaper! xo

  13. Avatarabi says

    Beautiful room. My favorites are the natural light and the shoes on the wall. I did something similar in my teenage daughter's room with her fist pair of tap shoes (she's on her way to becoming a professional dancer). The idea was mine, the color choices were hers 🙂 http://www.laughingabi.com/updating-a-teenage-girls-room/ Following you on Instagram. Thanks for sharing this gorgeous space.

    I absolutely LOVE your nursery! We are expecting twin girls in December so I am knee deep in designing their nursery. Thanks for the amazing inspiration!

  19. AvatarJulie Lilacs and Longhorns says

    Such a beautiful room and I love how you are cherishing every minute with your sweet girl. My kids are 9 and 12 and the years are flying by! Your story brought me back to the days when I rocked my babies to sleep. Such precious times! Enjoy your little girl and that gorgeous room! 🙂
    Sorry we didn't meet at Haven but maybe next time!

  21. AvatarAnonymous says

    Beautiful room! I scanned through and couldn't find if you mentioned what paint color is on the walls. I love how subtle it is. Thanks!

      • Avatarcassandra white says

        I hope you know you are a nursery superstar on pinterest 🙂 Your nursery CONVINCED me that this would be the best statement piece for our nursery.

        Do you happen to remember the ceiling color as well? It almost looks like a light pink- this would save me countless trips to lowes 🙂

        • Avatarcharmingincharlotte@gmail.com says

          Hi Cassandra! Thanks so much! The ceiling color is white (not sure of the shade because it came with the house), but yes, when the afternoon light comes in through the drapes is does look pink sometimes. Excited for your nursery!

    • Avatarcharmingincharlotte@gmail.com says

      Hey Katherine! Isn't Brooke so amazing?! I just love her! Congrats on your pregnancy and baby girl coming soon! My sister got the blanket at Bundle of Joy in Lafayette, might be worth a call to see if they have any left. 🙂

      xo

    Love your nursery! I am looking to try wallpaper for the first time and was wondering the name of the wallpaper you used and where you got it from. Was it easy to work with? THanks! 🙂

  38. AvatarAnonymous says

    I am using this as my nursery inspiration. Adore it. Do you remember where you got the pink gingham?

  39. AvatarSheri says

    What a beautiful room! Do you by any chance remember the brand of the drapes? I want to get similar ones for my little girls room but couldn’t find them on Overstock. Thanks!

    • AvatarStyle Your Senses says

      Hi Sherri! So sorry I don’t! I’ve looked for tags before and there isn’t a brand name on them 🙁

  40. AvatarAleesha L. says

    Such a precious room for a beautiful baby girl! Would you mind telling me what paint color you used?! ?

  42. AvatarBrittany Griswold says

    I love this nursery! I am doing a similar color scheme for mine. Can you tell me which drapes those are from Overstock? Those are exactly what I am looking for!

  44. AvatarMegan Cappiello says

    Looks beautiful! What kind of gold spray did you use for the curtain rod and sconce?

    • AvatarStyle Your Senses says

      Hi Megan!

      It’s Design Master Brilliant Gold…should be linked in under “Home Tour” xoxo

  46. AvatarAllison says

    Hi! I love your chandelier ! Do you remember what paint color you used to paint it gold?

  48. AvatarSavannah says

    Love this nursery, absolutely beautiful. Can you tell me what size the trellis rug is? TIA

  49. AvatarNanette says

    Hello! This room is beautiful! Can you please tell me what color paint you used on the walls?

    Thanks!

  51. AvatarApril says

    Your nursery is beautiful! What color paint did you use on the walls? This is the wallpaper I plan to use for the accent wall and I need a paint that will coordinate.

    • AvatarStyle Your Senses says

      You can find all paint details under “Home Tour” …congrats on your new babe!!! xoxo

    • AvatarStyle Your Senses says

      ahhh April I have no idea, I’m so sorry! I’ve already sold it, too. If it gives you any point of reference, I think that the total space between the windows is 54” so my guess would be that the frame is around 30′ wide. xo
