If you’ve been on Pinterest for more than a minute lately, you’ve probably come across this amazing nursery designed by Dina Bandman for this year’s San Francisco Decorator Showcase. I thought it would be fun to take on the challenge of “scaling down the design” to make it a pretty guest or girl’s bedroom.

This was a tricky one because that wallpaper and lucite crib are pretty amazing (and pricey) elements. But, I love the idea of taking inspiration from an over-the-top designer room and figuring out ways to use pieces of it in real life. This is my loose translation of the space on a smaller scale.
See my last “Scaling Down the Design” post here.
ONE. The One Room Challenge reveals were this week, and these green bathroom cabinets were a hit with me. (Naturally.)
TWO. This blue trim and shelving were another highlight from this season’s One Room Challenge reveals.

FOUR. A round up of the hippest house plants.
FIVE. If you’ve dealt with infertility, infant loss, or even if you haven’t. . . This was a really good episode from one of my favorite podcasts. A timely message of hope for many on this Mother’s Day weekend.
