How To Create A Wildly Feminine And Whimsical Baby Room - Nursery Reveal
Oh girl, here we go! I worked with YouthfulNest to create the perfect spot for Scout. There were a few pieces that I knew I wanted to have. The first was the Stokke Sleepi Crib, I love the oval design and the companies mission. The next was the Pepper Home pink Frida wallpaper. The bright colors and the design is just so fun.This fresh, feminine nursery designed for a mom of three boys is so ready for her spotlight. It started with a blank canvas and bloomed into a whimsical space full of flirty fauna in pinks and greens.
THE GIFT OF TIME
I had my hands full with three young boys and a huge home remodel when we found out we were expecting our first girl and it was also all happening during the heart of a global pandemic due to the invasion of covid-19.

A FEW OF OUR FAVORITE THINGS
I purchased the services and landed on the Biggie eDesign package exclusively sold on the Gugu guru website. From there I was paired up with YouthfulNest Design BFF Jolene Fontaine.
I already had her eye on a particular wallpaper and the rest of the room sprouted up from its style and color. The Frida print in pink by Pepper Home captured Megan's heart. And even though there were a couple moments spent considering another style this flirty print stayed on top.
THE THREE NURSERY ESSENTIALS
With the color and style direction set, the designer started pulling in the three essentials; glider, dresser and crib. A few of their favorite brands they wanted to contribute to our design and gifted premium pieces to the nursery.
First we have the Stokke Sleepi crib taking center stage in front of the wallpapered wall. With a Tiktak Design custom crib mobile dangling over this cozy sleep space.
Then we move over to mom's haven for all things baby, the glider. The Compass Rocker was selected from Project Nursery. The curved body in a creamy plush upholstery is luxurious and supportive. We loved the touch of pink from the rose gold metal legs.
The other top spot any parent looks to be functional and stylish is the changing area. The Schooner dresser was found on Paynes Gray. This piece is a beautiful blend of retro and modern styling, featuring brass metal accents. On top of the dresser I had to have my favorite baby products, Noodle & Boo.
ABOVE AND BEYOND
With the three essential nursery spots nailed down there was one more spot that was important for the family to incorporate in the room. With all the little brothers wanting to get in on welcoming their baby sister to the family we needed a spot for them and other guests to sit. This meant the need for additional seating. Originally we selected the Natural Daybed Boho from CB2. Then it was delivered damaged and a replacement was unavailable for weeks. We quickly sourced a few other styles and it was The Mid-Century Daybed from West Elm was ready to ship and fit the bill for both form and function. A clean line daybed lined with plush pillows from Paynes Gray and One Affirmation.
I am so thankful to have found a company like YouthfulNest. They made the process so easy from start to finish. This was my first time using an e-design service and I loved it.
With all the main functionality covered let's move on to some fun details! We can almost hear those adorable baby giggles as baby Scout is pushed by those big brothers in her macrame swing from Emma and Finn. When baby Scout is tired of play it's time for snuggling up with her new BFF, a plush Narwhal creature and listening to his story, both from Slumberkins.
BEFORE & AFTER
ROUND OF APPLAUSE
We can't take all the credit for this fabulous nursery room reveal. The fact is Megan and her install crew are ultimately responsible for taking their designers product and styling recommendations and installing it all themselves. As you can see they did an impeccable job.
Welcome to the world Baby Scout!
