Recently we interviewed Pam Ginocchio & Melisa Fluhr, founders of Project Nursery, and they provided us with some fabulous tips to share with all you trendy mommies out there on the current decorating trends as well as some other nursery design tips. We'll share a few with you here on the blog - but you'll have to go to the actual interview on our site to see the rest and to see some of their fabulous room photographs!
1. Start small. Designing a nursery can be overwhelming. Start with a favorite piece of anything as your inspiration or jumping off point and design around it. Whether it be your ideal crib bedding or something as small and as simple as a meaningful piece of art.
2. Always add an area rug to finish the room even if the room has wall to wall carpet. Nothing is sweeter than a small, fluffy, white sheepskin rug for tummy time.
3. Complete the room with proper window treatments. While a little valance is cute, try window panels. It will add a bold design presence and make the room look and feel taller.
Project Nursery has one MEGA BIG GIVEAWAY going on right now - they recently launched a new forum where you can get ideas & advice from tons of other moms/designers out there regarding your design delimenas. Go check out their new 'share forum' and get entered for a chance to win $1,000 in design goodies! Gotta appreciate that opportunity to win BIG! So go check 'em out! and while you're there take a minute to browse around - they have tons of great ideas to share with you!
