DIY Nursery Reveal (and more) – The House of Wood

Posted on July 12, 2012 by Roeshel

I love meeting “new-to-me” DIY blog friends. I just recently met Jen from The House of Wood. Jen is a songwriter. When she’s not writing, recording or touring, she is enjoying everything life has to offer with her husband and growing family. Being 7 months pregnant hasn’t stopped Jen from DIY-ing! She loves DIY as much as we do and she just calls it “nesting” so she doesn’t get any grief from her husband. haha!

She looks so cute too with her safety glasses and little baby bump (had to include this picture too, Jen!)

Her little girl’s room is super sweet and packed full of DIY projects.

Yellow and Gray Birdie Nursery Tour – a full nursery tour with a bunch of DIY projects involved: curtains, crib skirt, pillows, bookshelf, bunting, mobile, and more! Visit Jen’s original post for links to the ‘how to’ for each project and full details.

Adorable!

There are so many other great DIY projects at The House of Wood. Here are just a a couple sneak peeks:

Go ahead – you’re invited to stop over, introduce yourself, say ‘hello’ and be inspired.

Decorating Obsessed Nursery Reveal

Posted on January 5, 2012 by Roeshel

Hey there, DIY friends! Wow! You all had some amazing ideas and suggestions yesterday about my DIY dilemma! Thank you! I’ll keep you posted!

Today I’d like to introduce you to Ashley from…

Ashley is awaiting the pending arrival of her sweet baby girl soon and she’s just finished up the nursery. It’s an awesome combination of old, new and LOTS of DIY. The result is amazing! I love the bold non-traditional colors, don’t you? (Even her blog header looks good mixed in with the reveal photos!)

First thing you can’t help but notice is the gorgeous argyle wall. Something that’s definitely going to catch baby girl’s eye.

The also painted the base of the crib – isn’t that a clever idea to give it some special detail?

Want to see the before pictures? Like most nurseries, this room started out as a guest bedroom:

Now, it’s a beautiful space to grow, snuggle and play…

The attic access bothered Ashley…

So, they turned it into (non-permanent/easily removable) recessed shelving…

Check out this girl’s closet!

I love the details and accents. Isn’t this little guy sweet?

How fun is the DIY art (there’s more to see at Decorating Obsessed)…

You can get all of the details, more information and see more cute pictures at

Don’t stop there, Ashley’s blog name says it all. She’s “Decorating Obsessed” and her entire home is worth checking out!

Wishing you a happy, healthy and easy labor and delivery, Ashley! I can’t wait to “e-meet” baby Audrey!

There is no need for a nursery in our home but that doesn’t mean I don’t like looking at them and wishing my girls were little babies again.

If I had a little precious princess, her sweet room would be Restoration Hardware inspired using a soft pretty color palette…

It’d be filled with pretty and personal details…

My little boy would have a vintage or rustic themed nursery like these…

Here are a few of the nurseries I’ve featured over the past couple of years. Sweet and inspiring real rooms by decorated by blog friends. Go ahead, pin these. These ladies deserve recognition for beautiful, inspiring magazine-worthy nurseries.

But making baby gifts is as close as I get…
