apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Amazing! Such a creative use for a small space! I especially love the 3-D birds, they add so much to the mural.

So beautiful! What an amazing sanctuary for you and your baby girl. It feels incredibly open and light for such a small space. Congratualtions!

love the colors and the mural, lucky baby

What a beautiful, soothing nest for your baby! - Patsy

i love that you've turned such a small space into such a refreshing and lively nest for your baby!

wow- now, THAT is a small nursery. gorgeous. i love the unique feel of the room- very inviting! also, the crib bedding is so vibrant and yummy. and, the mural is extremely cool.

Do you happen to know the maker of the crib? We're looking for a simple crib that's not outrageously pricey. Thanks!

Wow...simply adorable!

Cheerful, bright and airy. Much thought went into this
charming nursery. Very lucky baby!!!

This adorable room epitomizes the "small" nursery in both size and function. Adding French doors allows light to softly flow through the room into the living area while serving as a buffer during quite time. And the mural and 3D avian cutouts provide a sense of movement and nature to the room providing the environment with gentle energy and balance. What a unique and comfortable haven for the baby!

I think it looks *awesome* -- what an amazing use of a 6 x 9 room. I very much like the wall mural, and coordinating pinks.

Unique & pretty but not too girly! Love it.

And I thought my baby's nursery was little and cute! You've done a great job in record time. She'll love it!

so creative and adorable! the mural brings the space alive -- when she's old enough, your little girl will love imagining the birds flying in the window and around the room...

Love it! The two tones of pink work very well together and your mural is fantastic love teh 3-d birds). Seeing that the baby won't be able to enjoy the environment for a while, it is wonderful to see a nursery designed to please the parents as well.

53sf! Wow. Congratulations, you've accomplished your task. Yes, it is simple, clean, upbeat and refreshing but as can be seen by picture #2 cozy...nighttime will bring a warm, cuddly environment. Perfect use of white paint...not too much keeping it away from feeling sterile but assisting in opening up the space...love the french doors! This baby's pad is the essence of creativity. Job well done.

Very nice. I love the tree on the wall.

What a beautiful, cheery room!! You did a GREAT job. Baby will love it.

Love the colors and bird motif. Good luck guys!!!!!

Awesome! My favs are the simple painting on the wall and the wood fish- nice to see the natural texture of wood.
And I love the simplicity of the room.
Im reading this book on Neuroplasticity :) ("The Brain That Changes Itself") and the author was talking about preschools and how we often instinctively judge them by how much stuff is in there, as opposed to an environment where a child can focus on a simple vision, texture, toy, or task. Something about your nursery feels right in that sense. Clean but warm.

Im also reading "Isoplate-tectonic Masoplasms and Baby: Potty 3.0" You should check it out.....

Absolutely gorgeous. What a lucky little girl!

Two words: Brilliant

Absolutely beautiful!!! love the mural! lucky little baby

Very beautiful and calm nursery! Very unique as well.

i can't believe this was a last minute project! i love it.

Very nice use of a small space - beautiful mural.

love it!

You created a space that both you and the baby can enjoy - good thinking considering the many hours you will be in there!

Hope you deliver a beautiful, healthy baby girl soon!

Fabulous.

This nursery is TINY, but sooooooo welcoming.

I think it transports you.

The color is perfect and the items used to decorate the space are well-chosen. I love the mobile, the french doors, the mural and the crib bedding.

These parents clearly have an eye for "cool".

***********

This itty-bitty room feels heavenly!

Calming, intriguing, fun and hip.

I've never seen anything like it?

This person should design nurseries for a living!

What an incredible room! The mural is beautiful.

Love the creativity! Great use of small space - wonderful colors and I absolutely love the mural and 3D effects! Especially love the street find - girl after my own heart! Lots of love to you and your family from Aunt "A" and hers. Send pics please when you can.

I just LOVE this nursery!! The colors...oh the colors. If I was being born into this world right now, I'd want to come directly into this nursery. It is funky, fun and so so clever.

Very Cute! Congrats you guys!

Your artistic talents are shining through and soon you and John will be shining with the joy of a beautiful new baby. Best of luck in the contest but more importantly, we are sending you luck and best wishes for an easy delivery and much happiness.

Amazed at what you did with the space you had. Your bundle of joy will love spending time in her room. Good Luck!!!

Great job! I love the simplicity of it and how uplifting it is.

I am not normally into pink, but suddenly I have pink fever!
Great job.

Who could say "Hmm not so sure" it is darling! I agree about the pink fever, I've got it too now. Love it.

Well this is so fun! I just added a comment somewhere else on this website, complimenting Judy and John's flight of fancy. What I want to say here is I LOVE THIS ROOM. This cool, creative use of color and space just shows how amazing these parents are (and at the last minute it was done?) I am ready to move in. I really agree with Brian Roberts who summed it up in two words.
Can't wait to meet her!!

I'm inspired!

Absolutely love - I'm sure the baby will be right at home in this beautiful, cozy space.

Aptilfe- sorry for the delay. But I found out from my sister-in-law that the crib came from The Burlington Coat Factory 7 years ago. Apparently it is a "Bassett" crib but she is not sure of the exact model name.

Best-
Judy
