Lauren from
has an amazing eye for design, DIY skills and decorating talent. She has the sweetest nursery makeover from top to bottom. Click HERE to see her original posts with details on what she purchased, links and the awesome budget. You won’t believe the cost breakdown. She rocks!
Here are a few pictures of the before and after:
Here’s where we started when we moved in:
Oh and picture a sports border in between the orange and ‘dinge’ colored paint. In our zest to remove it, we forgot to take a true before photo.
We (AKA the Hubster) did a lot of painting and construction, including new hardwood floors from Lumber Liquidators, adding beadboard, and all new trim:
To get the nursery to this point:
So there’s a little bit of history for you. Without further ado, here is the (mostly) completed nursery:
I am sooo in love with our new window seat bench and cushion. It opens up for storage and is a comfy cozy place to sit and survey the neighborhood or read a book. I made the pillows myself (and I’m pretty proud of it too – I’m NOT a sewer by any stretch of the imagination) I think I’ll make a few more, but sewing is tough when you’re 39.5 weeks pregnant. The window seat cushion is also a custom piece from Jayna @ RockyTop Designs on etsy.

I really can’t find anything I don’t like. I love the custom bumper, the soothing color scheme, the little accents (that owl and fox are adorable!), the glider and the window seat. It’s all so pretty!
Lauren – thank you so much for sharing your awesome nursery makeover with us! I think that little Violet is one lucky little girl! Best of luck in the next few days. I’ll be thinking of you!

IT!!! I shall go and vote!
what a beautiful nursery!
The nursery looks great. The curtains add a very nice pop of color to the room. Very nice:-)
What a cozy room! Love the colors.
Just wanted to let you know that I voted for you 🙂
WOW I love that room, so adorable and the colors are just gorgeous!
I can't believe they painted a GIRLS room blue with orange accents. Some people would kill to have a girl and they ruined it. I don't like it one bit!
wow! gorgeous! The window seat is just beautiful and I love the choice of colors and textures!
Just voted for you Roeshel!! I'm so sorry I've been MIA lately. Saw your Tweet about this nursery and let me say, I LOVE IT!! The orange and grey/blue combo is so relaxing! And I LOVE the beadboard!
I love this!! What a great nursery! It's beautiful.
Will she say where she got the curtains (or the material for the curtains)??
very sweet nursery.. well done!
Thanks for posting Roeshel 🙂 I voted by the way! And for the person who asked about the curtains – we bought them at Urban Outfitters, but I'm not sure if they sell them anymore. And although we're really really excited to have a girl, we're not big pink/purple people so sorry to whoever was upset about that 😉
Oh, I am in love! LOVE the color palette and attention to detail. Such a peaceful, sweet nursery. Thank you for sharing it.
Love this space! The colors are unexpected but work so well together!
How adorable. I like that it's not the typical pastel nursery.
BTW, I just voted and you're up to 80 votes!
How sweet – it looks like it came out of a magazine!
SOO Cute! I love the colors. So different and they all go so nicely! Wondering where you got the curtains? Maybe you said and I didn't catch it, I'll reread to see…but I love the colors and the pattern…so I'd love to find/make some of my own. Thanks!
If you didn't mention it…would you mind posting it? Thanks!
Okay, this is one of my all time favorite makoevers on this site. The blue color is just perfect, and no color would look better paired with it that that fresh orange.
Purrrfect!
Sublîme!! c'est tellement beau, bravo!
