Last fall, I started designing a nursery for my sister's newest addition. Her baby arrived early (on January 1st!) and over the last month, Chris and I have been on location finishing it up just in time for her to move out of her bassinet and into her crib and brand new nursery. Today, I […]
On January 1, our family grew — my sister, Andi, welcomed a beautiful baby girl, Gigi. She has lots of dark hair and cute little Cupid's bow lips, and we're all rather taken with her. I've been chomping at the bit to design another nursery (Last year, we made-over a nursery for our dear friends, […]
This month has been a busy one for our family. I took a brief trip to Idaho to visit my Dad, who's undergoing cancer treatments at the moment, and while I was there, we finished up the Fullmer's nursery! We also put the finishing touches on the CLJ Studio, covered in our Stuga flooring. Faye's […]
I've been sitting on the edge of my seat, anxiously waiting to share the finished reveal of Freddy's baby boy nursery! And well, between two separate trips across the country to Idaho, we finally did it. Chris and I have been friends with the Fullmers since way back when we lived in our Rexburg house, […]
This post is sponsored by Conair. I've touched on it before, but we're serious about sleep at our house. We start getting our girls on sleep schedules at 6 weeks--it's not always an easy process--but once they get it, they're set for life. Ours really thrive on lots of sleep and so do Chris and […]
The three questions I seem to get over and over about our nursery are regarding the sound machine, video monitor and what space heater we recently added. So I figured it would be beneficial to put together a quick post outlining each so it can live permanently somewhere and not just in my instagram stories. […]
Polly Janene Marcum August 1, 2017 | 9:13 pm 9 lbs 3 oz | 22 1/4" long Our darling Polly (her middle name is after Chris's mom) arrived on Tuesday and we're in newborn heaven over here. With the other two girls, my water broke spontaneously (before I had even any signs of labor! It was […]
There's one detail of the nursery we haven't expounded on yet, but I get questions about all the time--the light blue flat roman shade. Why did we choose shades over curtains? How did we choose the fabric? How dark does the room get when they are closed?, etc. And since we did put significant brain power into choosing […]
This post is sponsored by Modsy When we were putting together the nursery for the One Room Challenge, I was struggling in one big way. I'm the kind of person that doesn't want to buy a rug and chair and crib and dresser and decide on paint colors and lighting fixtures--basically, make all the decisions for a room […]
Exactly one week ago, we revealed our new nursery we completed in six weeks for the Spring One Room Challenge! It's been so wonderful seeing the room pop up everywhere on Instagram and shared on other blogs and Pinterest, too. Thank you so much for sharing it. Truly. Just like we did when we finished the […]
For the last six weeks, we've been working on a nursery for the little girl we're expecting this summer and today we're so excited to share with you what it looks like now! This is our second time participating in the One Room Challenge (last time, we coincidentally tackled a bedroom for our other two daughters) and we're […]
I can't believe next week is the reveal! The nursery has definitely come a long way in 5 weeks and today, we're so excited to share with you a few of our favorite artistic touches we've added to the room. I will say, there was an internal struggle for some time when deciding what we […]
It's time for another update on our One Room Challenge, where we're making over our nursery for our 3rd little girl due this summer. Week 4! How did we get here?! So far, we have added loads of pretty trim in week 2 and dreamy wallpaper in week 3. And if you missed the before, […]
If you're just tuning in, we're making over our nursery in 6 weeks as part of the One Room Challenge (check out the before here). It's week 3, and just like last season when we participated, we're doing it and sharing it in real time. Meaning, the progress you see, is right where we're at. Last […]
I'm so glad that one crib sheet is not enough, because even if it were...it could NEVER be. There are too many cute crib sheets out there to only buy one. And while I'm mostly content with white sheets in my own room, give me all the cutest patterns for the baby's. They add personality and a splash […]
This year, we've partnered with HANDy Paint Products, our favorite painting tools that make the job so much easier, to tackle four paint projects in our home. Naturally, the first project on deck was painting the wainscoting we added to the nursery last week before the wallpaper had to go up. Since the main walls, above the […]
We had such an eventful week getting home and recovering from the kitchen makeover we did for the sweetest couple in Baltimore--thank you for all the love on that reveal! We rested and worked from bed for two solid days (just long enough for my ankles to return to a normal size--haha!) before we felt enough […]
A few weeks ago, we shared our happy news that we'd be expecting our third child, another little girl, this summer! So when we were asked to participate in the One Room Challenge again this Spring, we knew exactly the room we'd want to tackle in the allotted 6 weeks--the nursery! Which currently looks like […]
I made the large letter art for Faye's nursery (easiest, cheap tutorial right here) shortly before she was born and it's been such a defining part of her room. But this weekend, we took it down to make room for something new... EEeee! We're spilling a few more details including how long it took us this time, how […]
I recently found a private pinboard I completely forgot about. It was the start of a nursery for a little baby BOY! I started it before we found out Faye was a little girl and I was so certain we were going to have a boy. Ha! So much for intuition. We couldn't be happier […]
