Nursery Decorating Help

Has anyone used an interior designer of sorts to help with their nursery planning? I just really dont want to deal with this on my own.  I have picked out the furniture and some art work, but can not come up with color scheme, bedding, window treatments, etc.  Anyone specialize in this kind of thing and can recommend assistance? Or do you know of a painter that specializes in ndoing nurseries, such as someone who does murals.  I have seen all the do it yourself recommendations, but my post is for somebody else doing it! :) Thanks!

  • I can't recommend an interior designer, but I can recommend a wonderful painter.  She does faux painting, harlequin and stripes, you name it.  She did a gorgeous shimmery metallic damask on the walls in my nursery.

    You can see the walls in my nursery here (best pics are at bottom):   https://www.mrsintraining.com/2011/06/grand-nursery-reveal.html

  • If you like Pottery Barn kids style of stuff, I believe that Pottery Barn has people that will help you plan out your nursery and make recommendations on which products to put together. I think they also provide paint color advice as well.

    That is a heck of a nursery - beautiful!!!  Remind me never to bring my kids to your house, they'd start thinking "hmmm, my mom only painted the walls of my room and put up Home Depot blinds when I was a baby - I want KelXoXo to be my mommy!"  Stick out tongue

    Ditto the Pottery Barn suggestion - I also think that not only can they help with planning furniture and accessories, but with paint color and bedding and stuff like that. 

    Wife, Musician, Fed, WW-er, and Mom of three little kids - not necessarily in that order.
  • I know someone who specializes in childrens' murals - she is just starting out but does amazing work and would be pretty inexpensive.  Let me know if you want her contact info or any pictures of things she has done for me.  She designed our nursery in photoshop, allowed us to comment on it / make changes, and then handled all of the mural work, painting other walls, and helped with the design elements generally.  Highly recommend!  My email is sedohrzil@aol.com if you want her contact info/pictures.
