Before we go into 2015, I wanted to share one of the children’s rooms I designed this year: Phoebe’s grey nursery. Having worked on her big brother’s room previously, it was great to be back and create a little haven for his new baby sister.
We needed to do quite a lot of work to get the room up to scratch before we could start decorating – you can see progress photos and read more about this here.
Phoebe’s mum asked for a peaceful nursery that would last, and didn’t want the room to be too girlie or pink. The inspiration for Phoebe’s nursery was a pretty baby blanket made with Liberty fabric from Sture & Folke. With an eye on the colour scheme for the rest of the house we chose a soft grey for the walls and woodwork, adding pretty bunny wallpaper behind the cot. The grey furniture has a vague fifties feel to it – which connects with other pieces in the house in this style.
The room was accessorised with violets, plums and a hint of pink. I am thrilled with the result, it feels so peaceful and pretty but not too cutesy. More importantly, Phoebe’s parents love the nursery too – in their words it’s now the best room in the house!

It’s gorgeous Ursula, Phoebe is a lucky girl.
where is the sleepy moon print from??
Hi Madison – it’s the “Fur Neil” moon print by Martin Krusche. Have a google and you’ll find an outlet in the US that will stock it. We got this one from The Pippa and Ike Show, an online shop here in the UK.
Thank you Ursula!
Hi Ursula,
How did you get the cloud attached to the wallpaper? We have wallpaper in the nursery and recently put shelves up but they will have to stay while that wallpaper is there.
Cheers!

Hi Emilie, it’s by French children’s furniture designers Laurette.
Hi! Where are the arts on the wall from? I swear I’ve seen it before somewhere. Especially the pear one, so cute!
Google “Pirum print” by Fine Little Day and you’ll find a supplier near you 🙂
hi, love the colours, please can you tell me where the upholstered chair is from?
Thanks Lucy 🙂 The chair is from Swoon Editions in the UK but sadly no longer part of their range!
