Avery Paris: Classic Pink and Grey Nursery with a Twist!

We've got so many new, exciting home projects going on at the Bungalow, it felt extra special to get back to basics with a classic pink and grey nursery for first time parents Natalie and Ardo:)

The pink and grey combo might be classic favorite, but Avery Paris' parents wanted their nursery to have sleek, clean lines and simple romantic twist!

For inspiration, we drew from a favorite nursery for Stacey from the Beach Bungalow files:

 Natalie loves Kourtney Kardashian's new nursery and Serena & Lily's Collette bedding collection was another great addition to the room.

Ardo was adamant about some very special lighting for the space, so we found an amazing 5-light chandelier from Maura Daniel to illuminate the room in more ways than one!

The room itself is on the smaller size, but boasts a large closet. This piece from Newport Cottages can easily be customized to do double duty as a changer for now, and the perfect size dresser as Avery grows.

Simple clean lined pieces, like Avery's crib and a bookcase from Land of Nod are easily dressed up with fun fabrics from New Arrivals and great accessories. Check back on the blog soon for the before and after!

Extra Storage Space to Out Of This World Playroom!

Everyone's favorite Grandma is at it again! Janelle's latest project is to transform her unused garage space into an incredible art and science themed playroom for her two granddaughters, Taylor and Cameron.

We took inspiration from this awesome bedroom, what a fun color scheme!

(Colombini Casa Kid's)

Janelle  is adding some custom built-in cabinets to the garage area, so we choose a bright orange chevron rug  that will be comfortable for the girls and a perfect pattern for the room.

(Rug Market)

These two-tone teak furniture sets are too cute and provide plenty of space for art projects!

(The Land of Nod)

 Fun details for the walls include wooden letters that spell out "ART & SCIENCE", red-orange flower decals and these sweet butterfly cable systems to display artwork.

(Pottery Barn Kids)

 The girls will no doubt love spending time in here with Grandma, so we ordered custom growth charts for each child.

(Oopsy Daisy)

 This room is full of bright colors and fun details that will make it the ultimate playroom for Taylor and Cameron. Check back soon to see the finished product!

Bold Blues & Bright Pinks for Sweet Claire & Katherine Grace

It's finally time to show off our last double installation of 2013! A big girl room with two adorable twin beds for Claire, and a bold navy and pink nursery for her new sister Katherine. 

(Beach Bungalow Designs custom bedding)

 There's nothing cuter than these Beverly Collection twin beds from Newport Cottages in blue with white detail! Except maybe that Claire requested a matching monogram pillow for her baby sister:)

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

From the striped bed skirts, to the ribboned duvets, to the brightly hued fabrics - there's no shortage on fun colors in this big girl room!

(Beach Bungalow Designs custom drapery & Newport Cottages)

You can never have too much pink, and this custom cornice board and drapery ties everything in perfectly. Newport's Celine bookcase echoes the scalloped edge of the cornice and provides plenty of storage for Claire's books and toys.

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

The pale yellow wall color is one of my favorites, and this dresser does double duty as an extra changer.

Flower coat hooks just above the chair rail give Claire a fun place to hang her jackets and robe. This simple but sweet personalized step stool finishes off the space with a touch of pink!

Here's a quick look at Katherine Grace's beautiful nursery...

A Multi-functional Playroom with Flair!!

For Elisabeth's playroom she knew she wanted a fun space for her kids to play and do homework, while also being a place for the whole family to be together.

We found some great ideas from our Inspiration Space

 Fun colored furniture, bright patterns and over-sized chalkboard for the wall help keep this space kid friendly.

I love this double, sphered rustic chandelier and the unique element it brings into the room

Rockin' Out at the Bungalow

Often the most used piece in the space, rockers and gliders these days come in a huge variety of shapes, sizes and styles.

Finding just the right one can be tough- check out some of the ones we liked!

 Sophisticated Glam is trending now and is so much fun to implement into rooms for kids. I love the green trellis pattern on our custom chair on the left. And check out the chic pouf as an ottoman in the image on the right!

(roomtobloom.com)

Vintage furniture pieces can be great options for rockers, this soft blue color helps it look right at home in the space.

(landofnod.com)

(kidsspacestuff.com)

Sleek and modern rockers are a fun option, they are an awesome go to especially when space is limited.

(oilo.com)

Love how this one is streamlined and cozy at the same time:)

(Beach Bungalow Designs)

Nothing says the perfect little girl's room like our pretty pink glider and tufted ottoman. 

(landofnod.com)

The wood detail in this rocker really stands out in the room and gives it that special touch.
