The Proper Peony and a Nursery to Match!


I love a good challenge!

When one of my favorite children's clothing brands, The Proper Peony, challenged me to find a room interior that co-ordinated with one of their precious designs, I accepted immediately!  I knew exactly what I wanted to match up too!

When I dress my little Millie Stuart up in her Proper Peony looks, whether the scalloped tulip bubbles or the classic monogram collection, I get stopped on the street and asked where these darling little looks come from.  They are classic and elegant with a darling little twist and the quality is amazing.  You know how hard a little one can be on clothing and each of her Proper Peony looks have stayed so nice after so many washes.  


And if you follow my blog you know that I have an obsession with monograms so of course I added a monogram and a pair of birds to the collar of the tulip bubble from The Proper Peony.

Now to the interior design....  


Every room in our home has a bird of some sort.  My obsession started when my husband and I gave out a pair of silver birds as the parting favors to the guests at our wedding. Our daughter's nursery is no exception.  


When I learned that I was having a girl, I immediately called for sample of Mary McDonald's Chinois  Palais Blush Conch Fabric for Schumacher.  I knew this would be my starting point!  It had everything I hoped for....a pale pale blush palate, birds, and a soft sweet whimsical feeling.


I added a few additional fabrics in to the mix:
this amazing Bargello,
and finished them all off with this wide Schumacher Labyrinth Tape in Platinum.

The sweet pillow with her birthdate and name was a gift from our friends Niven Morgan and Shelby Wagner.  Isn't it precious?

I also love the way the scallop collar of the tulip bubble matches the scallop in the Leontine Linen bed cover!  




I added a few accent pillows like vintage Bargello needlepoints and a sweet BeBe embroidered pillow that I had made for her bassinet from an antique French Linen. 

So what do you think?  Do you like my match? I hope so because we are doing a Proper Peony giveaway on my Instagram Feed!  Rush on over to check it out and tag a friend for more chances to win!

Get in line for Bernard Maisner and Julia B's collaborative collection!



I can hardly wait for the beautiful collaboration between two of my favorite artists to be available starting in September.  Bernard Maisner has been my go-to calligrapher for special projects since I got married eight years ago.   Julia B. is the creator of a gorgeous line of linens that impresses even the most discerning eye.  They have now joined forces to create a magnificent line of linens featuring Bernard's intricate designs.




Above is a selection of Bernard Maisner's beautiful Tree Cards.  Below is the gorgeous embroidery on linen created by Julia B for the new Bernard Maisner for Julia B. collection.  Isn't it beautiful?

Pink Monograms

I'm in such a pink mood lately with the baby girl in the house!  Now that we have a name for her, I have been ordering everything I can think of for her with a personalized touch, including this precious dress from Ragsland.


How pretty is this JuliaB. "P" monogram.  She has the most beautiful things!

I have the hardest time selecting monogram styles.  I like them all!  These are from Leontine
I found this pretty M on etsy.com



I love this scallop edge monogrammed shower curtain from The Pink Monogram.  There are so many colors available!

Of course, I gave my baby girl a name with the same initials that I have.  I hope she will appreciate and use my napkins when she grows up.
