Since we have listed our house on the market I wanted to make sure and document Lila’s nursery and all the loving touches we put into it.
Decorating Lila’s room was one of my favorite things when I was pregnant and I was a little sad when it was all done.
It is probably my favorite room in the house because we were so hands on and really put much thought into every little detail. I hope she looks back on it and loves it as much as we do.
Josh and his papaw installed the french doors that lead into Lila’s room. We wanted her to have a quiet place to rest without our little animal farm roaming freely in and out of her room. I just recently painted the doors and I am happy with how they turned out.
We chose to paint the walls a very neutral color and then incorporate lots of colors through all the accessories . The rocker belonged to my parents and I remember it from when I was small. We use it for story time, rocking and lots of cuddling.
Having beautiful artwork in the room was very important to us. We picked out several pieces from one of our favorite artist, Charley Harper. I also did several of the prints. We purchased inexpensive frames from Target to house them all in.
I love this part of the room because I really enjoyed all the painting that went into it. I painted the tree along with the birds and name above her crib. I also created the 2 mobiles hanging from the ceiling. I also found the cute curtain fabric online and created them using no-sew products. Towards the end of the pregnancy I didn’t feel like sewing, the no-sew kit was super easy and they look just as good as if I had sewn them.
We had found a really cute owl bedding set but it was super expensive. I was able to find this adorable owl print online and created her bedskirt. Then, we bought a plain white bumper and attached the green fabric on top.
This is Lila’s favorite part of the room. She loves pulling all the stuffed animals off the basket and shelves.
I love fabric and I had so many different prints I wanted to incorporate into the room and I found this lovely idea of displaying them in embroidery circles. Our mirrored closets help make her cozy room look just a bit bigger.
This space above the dresser acts as Lila’s main closet. The girl has an impressive wardrobe and is quickly outgrowing her small space. Josh uses the main closet in the room so we had to get a little creative. Personally I love looking over and seeing all of her cute, colorful clothes. We just have to keep them tidy to make sure it doesn’t become a a big mess.
This is one additional view of her room that connects to our office/study/library.
This is such a calming place to hang with her at the end of the day. It has been a wonderful room where many memories have been created.
