		<description><![CDATA[Inspired pins from Pinterest — including a closet door makeover, French themed cookies, a beautiful paper chandelier, a high-end nursery and a cute elephant cake! ]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Happy Monday! </strong>Last week was a bit rough for me (<em>my daughter was diagnosed with pink eye—and I have been doing laundry, disinfecting her toys and washing my hands ever since</em>) but luckily I have <a href="http://www/pinterest.com/nicoleabbott" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> for a little pick-me-up when things get tough.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s my little online paradise — cuz everything is just <em>sooo</em> pretty!</p>
<p>Scroll down to check out some of the things I&#8217;ve been pinning recently — and be sure to follow me on <a href="http://pinterest.com/nicoleabbott/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> for more inspirations! <em>And if you don&#8217;t have a <strong>Pinterest</strong> account yet and would like an invite, just leave a comment asking for an invite and I&#8217;ll be sure to send you one.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8504" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Armoire Makeover For Kids Room Drawing" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/armario.jpg" alt="" width="360" height="480" /></em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">This closet door makeover from <em><a href="http://www.bhg.com/decorating/kids-rooms/kids-rooms/kid-friendly-closet-ideas/?sssdmh=dm17.550538&amp;esrc=nwhi092211&amp;email=1957622506#page=10" target="_blank">BHG</a></em> is genius! The old closet doors were replaced with new panels cut and painted to resemble an armoire. Pretty, no?<em><br />
</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8501" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Cute Paris French Cookies Birthday Party" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/cute-Paris-French-Cookies-590x8851.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="675" /></em></p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been a big fan of <a href="http://sweetopia.net/2012/01/video-how-to-dry-cookies-decorated-with-royal-icing/" target="_blank">Sweetopia</a> since first coming across her blog early last year. She&#8217;s incredibly talented and I wasn&#8217;t surprised at all to find out that she was the creative mind behind these cute Paris themed cookies. They&#8217;re perfect for a baby shower or birthday party!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8506" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Baby Girl Room With Pom Poms and Zebra Rug Jonathan Adler" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/baby-girl-room-delicate-zebra-pom-poms.jpg" alt="" width="554" height="415" /></em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Swoon! This baby girl nursery spotted on <a href="http://rikshawdesign.blogspot.com/2012/01/young-creative-spaces.html" target="_blank">Rickshaw Design</a> — designed by <a href="http://jeffersdesigngroup.com/portfolio#pacific_heights_transformation" target="_blank">Jeffers Design Group</a> — is too cute! We love the pom poms over by the window seat, the <a href="http://www.jonathanadler.com/Zebra-Rug" target="_blank">Jonathan Adler zebra rug</a> ($1,000 — yikes! but <a href="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/2011/do-it-yourself/diy-how-to-make-a-felt-zebra-rug/">check out this DIY</a> if you&#8217;re interested in making a similar one yourself) and the playful mix of fabric patterns. And check out those shelves! They look expensive though :(</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8502" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Blue Chandelier Mobile Baby Hanging Etsy Handmade" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/il_fullxfull.278640999.jpg" alt="" width="450" height="658" /></em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Handmade is awesome! Get a load at this paper chandelier from <em><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/83983279/choose-your-colors-chandelier-shape/" target="_blank">Perpetual Motion Decor</a> ($28)</em>—that makes a great mobile or focal point for the nursery. It has 480 hand punched card stock circles which hang on a circular ribbon wrapped frame.<em></em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8507" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Elephant Cake for First Birthday or Baby Shower" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/elephant-cake-baby-shower-first-birthday.jpg" alt="" width="426" height="640" /></em></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">And last but certainly not least, we have this super adorable elephant cake made by <a href="http://hello-naomi.blogspot.com/2011/11/little-elephant-cake.html" target="_blank">Hello Naomi</a>. Naomi is based in Australia and I&#8217;ve been a big fan since we first featured this <a href="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/2011/baby-shower/striped-birthday-pool-party-entertaining-ideas/" target="_blank">Striped Pool Party</a>. Naomi is an engineer turned uber talented cake decorator — and I highly recommend taking a gander at her blog and checking out all of her beautiful creations.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>So tell me, what&#8217;s been catching your eye on <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/nicoleabbott" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> lately?</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">I know we&#8217;ve all been a little crazy with the start of the new year — but that would be no excuse to end the first month of 2012 without a nursery mood board! <strong>Pink and black</strong> is a color combo that I really love, but if you ask me, it&#8217;s been a tad overdone. I added some glitzy gold elements — and steered clear of damask — for a sophisticated look that&#8217;s reminiscent of old Hollywood. This one&#8217;s for <strong>a baby girl that&#8217;s glam and girly</strong>&#8230;<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve shared some <a href="http://pinterest.com/nicoleabbott/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> finds — and since I&#8217;ve been spending way too much time on the site (as usual) I though it was about time we brought back our <strong>Pinterest Monday</strong> feature.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Scroll down to check out some of the things I&#8217;ve been pinning recently — and be sure to follow me on <a href="http://pinterest.com/nicoleabbott/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> for more inspirations! <em>And if you don&#8217;t have a <strong>Pinterest</strong> account yet and would like an invite,</em><em>just leave a comment asking for an invite and we&#8217;ll be sure to send you one.</em></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8387" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Chevron Ceiling Fan in Kids Room" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/FAN2.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="750" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;m over-the-moon for this DIY chevron fan blades project featured on <a href="http://www.designsponge.com/2011/07/diy-project-chevron-pattern-fan-blades.html" target="_blank">Design Sponge</a>! Maybe it&#8217;s just my chevron obsession — but I think it&#8217;s fan-tastic!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8386" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Pink Polka Dot Nursery Chair" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/fashionvsdecor.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="698" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I&#8217;m suffering from serious chair envy right now. I love everything about this chair — the shape, the studs and the polka dot fabric. Perfect for a girl&#8217;s room! <em>Spotted on <a href="http://www.dailydreamdecor.com/2011/05/fashion-vs-decor-for-teenage-girl.html" target="_blank">Daily Dream Design</a>.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8384" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Colorful Wooden Knobs" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/4colors2.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="550" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">These colorful wooden knobs <a href="http://www.chocolatecreative.bigcartel.com/product/new-wooden-knobs" target="_blank">Chocolate Creative</a> can be used as hardware for a dresser or nightstand and I think they are just perfect for a nursery or toddler room!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8383" style="border: 0pt none;" title="DIY  Stacked Frames" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/DIY-stacked-frame-5.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="769" />This super amazing DIY tutorial for stacked frames from<a href="www.positivelysplendid.com/2012/01/diy-stacked-wall-frames.html" target="_blank"> Positively Splendid </a>cannot be missed! I need to make one right now — seriously. Don&#8217;t you feel compelled to make one yourself too?</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8385" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Pregnancy Photo Ideas" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/90775748708743695_F8EqUUJo_c.jpg" alt="" width="550" height="825" />Here&#8217;s a fun pregnancy photo idea from <a href="http://deanajohnson.com/" target="_blank">Deana Johnson Photography</a>! It&#8217;s so important to document those nine months of pregnancy — since they slip by so fast. This bubble-gum-popping pose is a must-try if you&#8217;re planning on taking a few shots to document your growing bump.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jessica of <a href="http://www.mommasgonecity.com/" target="_blank">Momma&#8217;s Gone City</a> is one of the sweetest people I&#8217;ve ever met — so as soon as I found out she was expecting baby #3 I knew I had to whip up something special for her. Jessica lives with her husband, and her two toddlers (a girl and a boy) and now a brand new baby boy in a small apartment in New York City — and <strong>all three kiddos will be sharing a bedroom</strong>, so it&#8217;s safe to say that things are pretty cramped.</p>
<p>Kids have a lot of stuff. So the goal of this design is to keep things simple — and uncluttered!</p>
<p>I hope she likes it! Do you?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-7983" style="border: 0pt none;" title="shared-kids-room-for-three" src="http://www.chiccheapnursery.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/shared-kids-room-for-three.jpg" alt="" width="600" height="865" /></p>
<p>Before design this room, I spoke with Jessica and she told me that she had already purchased the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004W2ZJSK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=chchnu-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B004W2ZJSK" target="_blank">Oeuf Perch Bunk Bed</a> ($1,500) and the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00354LTEE/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=chchnu-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B00354LTEE" target="_blank">Oeuf Classic Crib</a> ($940) — great choices! And her modern choice of furniture sent me on my way&#8230;</p>
<p>As a New York City dweller, I know all too well that small apartments in NY are much smaller than anywhere else — so I wanted to keep the space as simple as possible. Too many things on the walls of a small room can make it feel like it&#8217;s closing in on you. I selected three <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69495561/vintage-modern-inspired-wood-m-letter" target="_blank">Vintage Modern Inspired 12&#8243; Wooden Letters</a> ($18 each) to place near the bed of each child — to personalize their space.</p>
<p>They&#8217;ll need some storage, as well as a changing area for baby — so I selected the inexpensive <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/20135300/" target="_blank">Ikea Expedit</a> ($40). It&#8217;s cheap, modern and it&#8217;ll get the job done. A changing pad can be placed — and secured! — on the top, while bins containing diapering essentials and clothing changes (top two openings) and toys for the bigger kids (one for each) can be place on the bottom.</p>
<p>Chevron <a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=22907042&amp;color=001&amp;navAction=jump&amp;itemdescription=true" target="_blank">Zig Zag Curtains</a> ($40 per panel) and a super retro-modern <a href="http://www.velocityartanddesign.com/themis-mobile-pr-28849.html" target="_blank">Artecnica Themis Mobile</a> ($30) bring in some fun — with bold graphic patterns and lots of color. While a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001HX36MI/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=chchnu-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B001HX36MI" target="_blank">Baxton Studio Cradle Chair</a> ($132) adds a modern place to sit, feed and bond. Add a soft rug, <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/10093942/" target="_blank">Ikea Flokati</a> ($80), for everyone to enjoy some tummy time together!</p>
