A lavender nursery with loads of style


I've had nursery brain the last few months, and not just because I'm having a baby.

You see one of my favorite clients has a darling little girl named Madeline who needed a big girl room. Lucky me, I still get to satisfy my need to design a girl's room through her and we are doing the loveliest lavender nursery. We have had so much fun working on this project and the details are all coming together in the next few weeks. I might dare to say this is one of my favorite rooms I have ever designed.

I'm not generally a purple loving girl, but the soft shades of lavender and lilac we used in this room have me completely captivated. The inspiration board for our room is pictured above, but scroll below for more of what inspired this space in the first place:

  2. Looking beautiful ~ terrific mood board. I'm with you, I don't generally like purple but I can see the ethereal soft beauty of a pale lavender when it is handled like this. Looking forward to seeing the completed nursery on your blog in the future! It's funny, because I recently visited a lavender farm {being summer and the harvest season in Australia} and rediscovered just what a fab colour this can be when handled right. I posted some of the images on my blog ~ so do check it out and let me know what you think. http://bluefruitdesign.blogspot.com/2011/01/lavender-grey.html

  4. Love your board. I, too, am not a purple fan but have been drawn to the pale lavender that has been popular of late.

  5. I never think of purple either. But it's really pretty. I love that Thomas Paul pillow.
