Inspiration Tuesday

This post is going to tie into tomorrow's post (Corner of our homes Wednesday). Lot's of our inspiration comes from looking over every magazine out there. Many years ago BH&G put out quite a few Children's room issues (we have them all in our custom area for anyone who would like to browse through them). Don't be afraid to bring in a picture or a group of pictures (not necessarily of the same room) of things that catch your eye. We will work with you to create an original room using elements you have found that you like.
This one in particular struck a cord with Wendy when she was buying her current house in 2004. Trying to decide how to decorate her daughter's big-girl room, when she saw this picture...it was all over! Bella is not a really girly- girl (i.e. not too much pink) and loves the ocean. Her favorite color is purple too. The painted treatment on the walls is whimsical and gives a sense of motion. The fabric is by Laura Ashley and although it has mermaids on it, the whole room isn't over the top "themed." Lot's of colorful fabric, painted furniture and home-made touches make this a great choice for a nursery. If you can't tell...we LOVE color (and kids do too)!!!
