So many of my friends seem to be pregnant right now and I am stoked! I am helping a few of them with their nurseries, so stay tuned for upcoming baby posts. I thought I would share a mural I did for my nephew's nursery in DC. They have since moved to San Francisco, but I can hardly wait to go visit them in the fall and see his new room!
Here is the small painting of our dogs my friend Susan and I did in our nursery.
I am really digging wallpaper and hand stenciled patterns in nurseries as well. Check out Liam McDermott's first nursery.
Speaking of decorative walls, feast your eyes on this stenciled laundry room. I'm contemplating stenciling our master or the guest room. Hmmmm... So many ideas, so little time.
I must admit, I was the biggest 90210 fan growing up and even hosted a few friends over for the series finale. I didn't really continue to follow Tori Spelling over the years until she was seen everywhere with her pug, MiMi La Rue. Her celeb-studded wedding at her parents' home mansion (a.k.a. the "Manor") made all sorts of headlines. THEN, she fell in love, got remarried, and started her empire that I cannot get enough of.
Seeing as that I am a reality TV junkie, I fell hard for Tori and Dean Inn Love. From the renovations of the B&B, Chateau Le Rue, to her super hilarious and honest relationship with her husband; I loved every aspect of this chapter!
I think my infatuation is because it seems as though every aspect of Tori's life points back to design. Awesome design. She has decorated each of her homes, party planned the most detailed and fabulous events, and most recently served as event planner for sTORIbook Weddings, a show that grants lucky couples their dream wedding.
I absolutely adore the mixing of very California chic prints with antique pieces and new modern trends, such as the black cabinets and carrera counter tops. Her style incorporates bold pops of color and still gives such a classic vibe.
Here is a YouTube video of Tori's remodel in her latest home:
I am almost forgetting to mention she has jewelry, kids' clothing lines, AND writes amazingly funny books. Her children are super adorable and are never seen without something stylish on. What can't this girl do?
