Burberry Nursery Sneak Peek

We are almost done with the Burberry Nursery!

Here is a sneak peek of a small section of the room for the twins.

We are not revealing the rest quite yet because we are waiting on a new glider chair to be made.

Enjoy! This is a wicker elephant that doubles as a side table and triples as a fun decorative element that the kids will love to climb on. I know what you are thinking, those tusks look sharp! Don't worry, we cut and sanded the ends so they are round. In addition, the tusks can be removed or rotated down.

As you can see, an area rug that is similar to the new stripes on the walls has been placed over the blue carpet. It really helps to lighten up the space.

More to come in a few weeks.

Burberry Nursery in Progress

This traditional burberry pattern is the inspiration for one of our current projects.

I wanted to share some progress on one of our current projects!
We have some amazing clients that have a beautiful Victorian home in the trendy highlands neighborhood.

This spring they are expecting twins, a boy and a girl!

When deciphering their color palette, we made a decision pretty quickly, I LOVE clients like this!!!

Tips on choosing a color palette:

1. Look around your exisitng spaces, what colors are there? Why are they there? Do you like them? Do you see a pattern in your style?

2. Use these as a jumping off point. You want your nursery to be a space where you feel comfortable.

3. Try combining some colors from various areas of your life.

We decided to use the colors from the traditional burberry pattern as our palette. How cute!

Our approach is a traditional mix that is gender neutral. Hopefully, you will see this emerge as the project moves forward.

The obstacles for this space are:

1. Twins in a pretty tight room, the space is about 11'x10'!

2. Navy carpet that is staying.

3. An extra door leading to a hallway

4. A closet with crazy slopes because it is under a staircase.

5. Storage!!!! (as in there isn't any).

The already great parts of this space are:

1. Great architectural details, (we will be adding more).
2. 9' ceilings

3. Awesome clients!

Here are some before pics:

Here is that pesky extra door, stay tuned to see how we solve this "obstacle".
