Thursday Giveaway: The Peaceful Nursery

Feng Shui may seem new-agey to you, but we believe many parents will be interested in the principles found in The Peaceful Nursery: Preparing a Home for Your Baby with Feng Shui by Laura Forbes Carlin and Alison Forbes. In addition to Feng Shui, the authors incorporate ideas from interior design with an eye toward a healthy, green space for a child to live.

I'm so interested in learning about feng shui...I never got the chance to decorate a nursery for my twin babies - they've been sleeping in our room, but as soon as we move, they'll be getting their own room!

My brother and his wife are pregnant with their first and they live all the way down south (we're in Michigan), so it would be great for them since they're far away from family!!
