Chic Contrast – Refined or Playful?

We’re talking Nursery Design on the blog today. See our interview with Trish Morris here!

To continue the theme, here’s two current looks we love, AND they play up the neutral/white “canvas” trend that is everywhere. This design trend offers great flexibility–whether your style is refined or a bit more playful.

Design Tip: If you’re looking to create a color nursery space, keep to a neutral palette and create a gallery wall with colorful art. Take it step further and mix purchased prints with art that is created by your little & collected over the years. Think keepsake and art gallery! The best part is you’re able to achieve an inspired, colorful space without it being overly loud or distracting.

So, what is your Chic Contrast Style – Refine or Playful?

My kids are all proficient pom-pom makers, and even the dog steps lightly over our yarn mess. It would not be unusual to accidentally sit on a half-made pom-pom, since they are literally everywhere.
