Nursery Finds

Baby White arrival date is quickly approaching!  We made the decision to not find out the sex of the baby which makes nursery design a little more challenging.  But seeing all the same light blue and light pink out there, I'm kind of glad.  Even if I knew what we were having I wouldn't be using baby blue or pink.

Right now I'm envisioning a mostly white room with grays and yellows -- then once the baby is here I'll add corals or turquoises.  Check out what I have so far...

I'm not sure if the name is going to stick, but that's all I could come up with for now.  If you're a Mad Man fan, I'm sure you get it.  Let me know if you have any name suggestions, I'm open!  For some time now I have been on the hunt for a mid century modern chair.  But no such luck until I came across this one!  I can't wait to find another.  It's really well made, and super comfy!  

The velvet is actually a curtain panel from Pottery Barn.  Now I can't remember why I bought it originally but I've had this velvet for a while now.  I started with the velvet, and loved how it looked, but thought it needed a little funk added to it!  That's where the Dwell fabric on the back came in.  My husband said I should name it the "mullet" -- it's work in the front and a party in the back.  I think I'll stick with "Draper" for now!

I love looking through design magazines, websites, blogs, online magazines... And I'm most always thinking about how can I use this for a new chair design.  Sometimes they pan out and other times they sit on my bulletin board staring at me each day.  Get into my head as I design..

I love lamp : )  These lamps remind me of my wonderful and amazing Maw Maw Kitty (grandma) -- I didn't name her!  She has absolutely outstanding style and taste, and uses a lot of  this coral color in her home.  I love mixing some traditional looking with a more modern take.

If you love Lonny Mag check out Ivy & Piper, they have some great things!
