Adorable Aqua and Red Nursery

I have been so drawn to aqua and red color combos lately (here and here). So of course, I loved seeing this adorable nursery Cara emailed me about. She wanted to share her fantastic results with my pelmet box tutorial:


The fabric is Alexander Henry's Country Cross Stitch (available at JoAnn's and at Purl SoHo). The red trim is 1/4" bias tape.



The wall color is Baby Bird by Porter Paints.

The crib (and not pictured dresser) are from Wal-Mart's Baby Mod line, which I've used in other client's projects before. I love the furniture line and so does Cara.
Cara found the adorable vintage chair for $10. It was in pretty bad shape when she bought it!


She had it reupholstered in Fabricut's Bonomi Chevron in Sky.


Doesn't it look comfy and perfect for a nursery?


The two pieces of art on the wall are from Etsy sellers. The Stay Calm poster is by sfgirlbybay and ASL poster is from TwoSarahs.




The toddler bed was a $30 resale shop find. Cara sewed the adorable pillow and quilt on the bed.


The white bookshelf is from Target (here's a similar one). Cara hodge-podged some Martha Stewart paper on the inside back to give it some color.


And check out this mini quilt! Isn't it adorable? Apparently there are plans to make a whole wall's worth of different mini-quilts! WOW!


Great job, Cara! And thanks for sharing your beautiful photos!
