Baby Hope's Nursery – Home Away From Home
Baby Hope is on her way! In preparation for her arrival this winter her mom and dad are itching to complete her nursery and asked us for help. Since they are struggling to mix both of their styles, we combined the best of both to give baby Hope a hip, chic and stylish place to dream! Take a look at their letter and Hope’s nursery finish board!
Hi Abbe,
My husband and I are expecting our first child this winter and with our busy schedules, we have had no time to shop for Hope’s nursery! I have to admit that we are putting it off because we can not agree on the style of the items we want. My husband wants simple but I want a bit of frill. We need your help to complete her nursery before she makes her big arrival this winter. We tried to start on the room and the only thing we have been able to agree on has been painting the room a warm beige color. I want to keep the walls neutral, as Hope grows up and we change her bedding I really don’t want to repaint the room. We both love some color but are unsure how to pull things together without it looking crazy. Here is a list of what we want for the room:
1. No pink, we want to go with a brown and green color scheme
2. We love the “modern baby” look of clean lines, white furniture and wood accents (We need a crib, changing table & rocker)
3. A few “girlie” touches please. I am drawn to more frilly things and my husband wants things more natural and simple. Helps us combine our two styles. Enclosed is the bedding we have purchased, it is white with a floral pattern. My husband let me win that one!
4. We need a bit of art to hang in the room and help with a layout. Three of the four walls in the room are full. The first has the closet, the second has the windows and the third has built-ins.
We are so excited to see your ideas and know you can help us resolve our style differences so baby Hope will have a perfect nursery!
Thank you,
Brandi & Jeff
