Hello beautiful readers! It’s been a really long time. I am FINALLY done with grad school and now have my Master’s Degree (woo hoo!) which means I now have my life back. Having time to study and complete a thesis with a newborn and toddler meant very little time to do much else, including blogging. It feels so good to be back to doing what I love!
So, let’s get caught up. Dante is now almost five months old and Max starts preschool today *sob*. Time is flying by!! I can’t believe I did not share Dante’s nursery until today. It is my favorite room in our home. Designing it was a challenge because it is the smallest room (besides the two smaller bathrooms).
I had an idea of what I wanted to do and made this Pinterest board. We didn’t find out the gender until Baby Dante was born so I stuck with a neutral grey palette.
I also made a moodboard for a boy’s room so I had an idea of what I wanted the room to look like.
Shades of cobalt blue, light blue and pops of metallics added a much needed dose of color. I went for a whimsical modern rustic feel. Here’s what I ended up with…
My favorite part of the room is the changing station. I mounted brackets onto crates that I picked up at Michael’f for about $15 a piece. I like the idea of the chalkboard labels too. To make tassel garland click here. I added tassels to a burlap flag banner that I scored in the Target dollar section. The bibs and ointment caddy is actually a plant stand from Target. I’m all about the repurpose.
It’s so great to be back! Missed you loves! Talk to you again soon 
Love Dantes room!! So peaceful ???????
Congrats on finishing grad school! I couldn’t even imagine if I had to do that with 2 kids…you’re a superhero! The room is perfect and I love the color of the furniture! It looks very Restoration Hardware! Welcome Back!
Thank you! Yes that’s why I like the furniture too! I love the look of RH Baby but not the price tag lol!
