This darling little nursery belongs to Zoey. Her mom is a design fanatic and DIY enthusiast, and her dad is handy. With a color palette inspired by fabric, this fun and fresh nursery will make your jaw drop!
Child’s Name: Zoey
Child’s Age: 3 months
Location: Cincinnati, OH
What was your inspiration for the room?
We knew we wanted something fun and modern for our daughter without being super girly. Since nurseries usually have a ton of fabric we knew that would be the place to start. After finally landing on the coral, lime, and light blue fabric collection over at spoonflower everything else just fell into place.
Describe your decorating style.
That’s a question I’ve been trying to answer for as long as I can remember. It varies from space to space, but always clean lined and fairly simple. After being exposed to so many different styles in design school it has been impossible to settle on just one ever since. My home is anything from modern to industrial to rustic.
Favorite items in the room.
Zoey’s wall of framed fabric. Super fun project gathering all of the various frames and we had fallen in love with the fabric from the start.
Any words of advice to share with us?
Have fun with it. Think ahead. They’re only babies for so long. Create a room that allows for some growth.
Focus less on the coordination of different pieces and more on what you really love. The end result won’t fail to make you smile every time you enter the room.
Give us all the details about your room! Don’t forget to share with us any money saving tips you might have learned along the way.

Gorgeous! Such great details. Thanks for sharing, Nicole!
I love this whole nursery!! Tons of great ideas and colors! I’ve been on the hunt for cool nursery ideas lately and just posted some pics of a friends nursery, check it out:
http://imprintalish.blogspot.com/2011/02/little-birdie-told-me.html
Absolutely love the light gray walls and every other little detail in this room! great job
Love this room! We just bought this same crib and are thinking about the IKEA Expedit shelf as well. Do the whites match? We would have them fairly close in the room and I’m afraid it would bug me if they didn’t. The crib is so stark white and the Expedit looks a little creamier in the store.
@Laura, Laura, did you ever find out of the Modo crib and IKEA Expedit shelf are the same color white?? I’m wondering the same thing!
I saw this post and immediately left the house to buy a galvanized tub and a ton of stuffed animals for my nursery! I also ordered the metal letter from Antrophologie! Thanks for the ideas! Can’t wait to incorporate these things in my nearly finished nursery!
@Glaucia, That’s so great! I’m happy to hear you found some inspiration :) Will you send us pictures? Please say yes!
@Nicole, I most certainly will post pictures! Thanks again!
i love the entire thing. i want to go to each place listed and purchase everything in this room. i want my baby to live in it. it is so perfect. i wish i had some money. the end.
I LOVE RockyTop Design (the Bedding)! She is amazing!
Can you please let me know where you got the shelves. I LOVE THEM and would like them for our nursery wall.
Loving your nursery! Where did you get the changing pad? I just purchased the expedit unit for my son’s nursery but all the changing pads I come across are too wide…Thanks!
Hi Ashley,
I just noticed that you had the same issue I m having with the changing pad. If you were able to find an appropriate size, would you let me know where you got it? Thanks!
You are a genius!!! My husband and I loved the ikea bookcase turned sideways so much that we decided to use one in our nursery instead of a regular changing table. One question though, what size changing pad did you buy? I can only find the 32 x 16 and it’s a little too wide. I can’t seem to find a smaller one anywhere. Thanks for your help!
Can you tell me the name of the spoonflower fabric prints that you hung on the wall? I love them and can’t find them:( thanks!
