Today I am so honored to be sharing with you some pictures of my girlfriend Katey's nursery for her newborn daughter, Mallory. Katey has become the queen of DIY in all areas of her home, but her talent is really shown off here. Every time I visit her, I feel like I'm walking around going 'that's amazing!' and 'how did you do that?' and 'Oh! I want to learn how to do that....'
It's safe to say that Katey, you are my DIY inspiration.......though I haven't quite summoned the willpower to actually DO one of these projects floating around in my head.
Without further ado, here is Miss Mallory's nursery completely decorated by her Mama and Daddy.
What a lucky little lady (for more reasons that just this!).
Gorgeous mixture of colors and patterns.
- Glider & Ottoman from Dutailier, cushions were replaced to match nursery as this was from the first born's nursery. A tip - after pricing out getting her old cushions recovered, she found it was much cheaper to just order new ones!

If you have any questions about Mallory's nursery, don't hesitate to ask! I'm happy to go straight to the source for you. I am still in awe of all that Katey accomplished while pregnant and running after a 2 year old.....most nights I wanted to just flop into bed when I was in her shoes!
Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl, Katey.
Congratulations on your beautiful baby girl, Katey.
Love it all! The curtains and stenciled wall are my favorites.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Love the nursery and all the DIY projects! Makes me want to hit the garage sales this weekend! Ruby's Big Girl room is in planning...
ReplyDeleteSuper cute nursery! I love the contrasting patterns! Do you know if she had to do anything special to spray paint the martini side table... like prepare it before adding the paint or adding a special top coat? I am so tempted to paint mine, but very unsure of how the paint will take. I am loving that hers looks like it still has the original gloss like she bought it right out of the store in pink!
ReplyDeleteHi Renee,
ReplyDeleteShe just spraypainted, no gloss! it obviously took really well. Glad you liked, and thanks for visiting my blog!

How many yards did it take for the curtains? I'm planning on ordering this fabric and not sure how much to order.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Hi Heather, talked to Katey. She ordered 5 yards, cut it in half for the two curtains, and they have 1/4" hems. Tehy are set above the window moulding, and skim the floor. She says she also got a little extra length by using larger curtain rings. Thanks for visiting my blog!
ReplyDeletehi! where did you find that adorable wallpaper?
ReplyDeleteLOVE this room. Thanks so much for the link to the fabric. I stumbled upon this page reseaching this wall color! Lucky me, I finally found the perfect fabric to reupholster a chair for my recently flooded shore house. You made my DAY!!
