We are 14 days away from our delivery due date, and I have to say the feeling of getting to meet our little one is better than every Christmas morning combined. I absolutely love designing rooms, that is no surprise here, as I am an art gallery owner. However, designing our sons nursery was more than wonderful, it was magical. I was mainly inspired by the movie Father of the Bride II, when Steve Martin hired Martin Short to design a glamorous yet handsome nursery. I took colors from Nantucket, pottery barn nods, mixed in with antiques found in Kentucky and Ohio and artwork by Larry Zinc as well as other local Cincinnati, Ohio artists. Per advice from other mothers and fathers alike, we chose black out silk curtains, and included soft colors, but also durable material. We definitely opted for old world charm but decided to go with a smart nursery complete with the Nanit, Hatch, a must have humidifier by Crane, an alexa for kids, and more. We also opted for a queen bed to put in his nursery by his crib and bassinet instead of a rocking chair, so that he could grow into his room and also so I have a place to breast feed and put my feet up, instead of just plopping in a rocking chair as a lot of people do. Enjoy a look into our sons nursery. October 17th can’t come soon enough!
Peace + Love,
