Modern Nursery Desgin Take 2…

This is Van’s room before the bed switch! He’s getting a big bed, and crib/ toddler bed is being reassembled in the new nursery for bambino #2. Check back later for the photos of his new room! Below are just some nursery’s that inspire me and get me motivated to decorate the new room!

So I am finally starting to freak out that we have another baby on the way, I am 6 months pregnant and haven’t really done a thing yet for his room! Yes I said his.. We are adding another one of those humans that come from another planet than I do to this household. I suddenly found myself worrying about making his room special like I did for Van. I want him to have his own identity, not just be the son who got all of the hand me downs and the stained clothes, and beat up toys. I want him to feel special..
So on my hunt for fresh crisp new little linens for my sweet baby boy to rest his head on, I stumbled upon this great site that sells cribs and the best little crib and toddler sheets you ever laid your eyes on! So I am just not sure what to get new sheets for the bed Van is going to move into, or new crib bedding to make the new baby feel oh so special! Anyways.. I will post more on this once I actually place my order and let you see some photos of Van’s newly decorated room!

More later…

Happy New 2010

I am loving this love seat made by designer Karim Rashid he gives us a pretty-in-pink two-person chair for your Love Shack. The Veuve Clicquot Love Seat! Not only can you hang out with your honey face to face but you can share a chilled bottle of bubbly too! How romantic.. Reminds me of the good old dayz!

Next up the bottle, molded from 100 percent BPA-free polypropylene, is Rashid’s attempt to modernize and bring new appeal to a traditional baby product.

These baby bottles heat milk to body temperature without using electricity. Called Iiamo Go, the product heats the milk using a disposable capsule containing water and salt. Heat is generated as the salt becomes re-hydrated. Innovative, superior design and healthy too!

Before & After

Before – an old rod iron couch that was black. I primed it with white paint, and then spray painted it avocado. I used the old cushions and bought some covers from ikea online for $60 for all 3. We re- did this couch and table for a grand total of $100.00

After – Outdoor rug $25 from Pier One.
