I have a habit of changing moods midstream. In college, I changed majors (majorly) two years in. In my working life, I went from medical sales rep making good dough to broke law school student. It's no surprise, then, that I often get halfway through the decision process of a project, and take a left turn, so to speak.
That happened with Isla's nursery. I was going down the path of gray this, gray that - soft, neutral, yada yada when one afternoon recently it just hit me: jade green. With touches of gold, and fuschia and clever art. Heavily inspired by de Gournay wallpaper goodness. Knowing wallpaper, especially something that exquisite, isn't part of my limited budget, I've decided to do my own riff off the look.

Baby girl is adorable!! And you sound just like me. I change my mind constantly!! I will worry and work on something for ages and then BAM! The perfect idea comes to me and it is back to the drawing board. Good luck! Can't wait to see what you come up with.
I love the ideas and inspiration! I can't wait to see how it turns out. And Isla -- holy cuteness!!
So with you. Love that vivid green with touches of pink. It's sophisticated, but still girly.
And Isla is lookin' gorgeous!
