What We Bought For Baby Girl's Nursery

Nursery Gear
Crib: We went with the Babyletto from Pottery Barn and it is stunning in person! I loved the mix of natural and white wood & love that it is adjustable for when your kids grow. It can actually turn into a small bed when she is a toddler.
Rocker/Glider: Obsessed. This things is so over the top but in the best way - it rocks, glides and reclines. The recliner part of it is all electric so you just press a button to recline back. It is also super comfortable
Changing Table Basket: Even more stunning in person! I took a risk on this ordering from Amazon with a vendor who did not have a ton of sales or review - but honestly it is stunning. Great quality rattan, super tight weave so it will be durable. I also love that it came with a pad in it that has a removable cover to wash.
Changing Table: We decided on the Ikea Hemnes because 1) it is super affordable and 2) fits well in the space! We have the bigger version in our room and love it. A great option for more storage. We also didn’t want to invest in an expensive dresser as we do not know how long we will be in this apartment & what would fit better in our next space. Overall the quality is decent, it looks nice but is a pain to put together and will definitely not last forever but works great for now!
Mattress + Crib Sheets: We went with the Newton Baby 100% breathable mattress - such peace of mind with a newborn!! I got the breathable light pink star sheet for the mattress.
Rattan Bassinet: My friends bought this for us - so special! It is stunning in person, great quality and will be perfect for her first few months while she is in our room.
Infant Lounger: The SnuggleMe Organic fits perfectly into the base of the rattan bassinet we got from Crate & Barrel! It also has amazing reviews online for having a safe and comfortable place for your baby to hang out in.
Nursery Decor
Rattan Sun Mirror: Could either be a moon or flower! Thought the rattan was gorgeous & seems like great quality for the price. Good size too so I love how it looks as a statement art/mirror on the wall.
Watercolor Moon Phase Paintings: One of the first things I bought for the nursery! They are stunning, whimsical and I loved the pale pink coloring. The ones we bought are actually painted on canvas so they don’t need a frame but I loved the look. Very high quality.
Fabric Cloud Decals: Even more gorgeous in person - they are fabric material so they won’t peel or stick to the walls. I love that they add a little bit of something to the wall, especially because we can not paint while in an apartment!
Small Black Frames: Love these from Target! They come pre-matted and are gorgeous looking.
Large Black Frames: Found at Michaels craft store after searching everywhere for a black frame this size that didn’t look cheesy or have super shiny glass.
Acrylic Book Shelves: Come in a pack of 4 on Amazon - 15” long and 4” deep.
Crescent Moon Mirror: A fun whimsical touch & really beautiful shape for the price.
Pampas Grass: I love the look of this! A tip a friend gave me is to hairspray the pieces when you get them so they don’t shed every time they get touched - worked like a charm!
Wall Mirror + Woven Basket: Ikea finds (may be able to find similar online)
Closet + Organization
Pant Hangers: Perfectly fit all of her matching sets and bottoms.
Kids Hangers: Most affordable and quality looking kids hangers - pack of 15.
Woven + Leather Baskets: Basket comes in several sizes which are perfect for organizing a kids playroom, nursery or closet. They are also really pretty and great quality in person.
Plastic Woven Baskets: Come in both grey & white; great for organizing toys or onesies.
Clear Acrylic Containers: Love these for keeping the changing table organized and simple.
Acrylic Shoe Shelves: Going to hang a few in her closet for the little shoes to sit on! They have not arrived yet from Amazon but will definetly share when we have them up. I think they will be perfect to display a few shoes/booties, and also practical so we can easily see what we have in her size.
Plastic + Natural Wood Caddy: Love this for organizing diapers/wipes on the changing table or for bath time supplies you may want to keep in the bathroom. Keeps everything organized & contained and easy to cary or move where you need it.
toys + fun
Moon Phase Blanket: Anything with moons just calls my name; this could be used as a swaddle or blanket, super soft and light weight.
Personalized Name Blanket: I can not wait to share her name with you!! For this blanket you can customize the colors and font. Would make such a fun gift!
Little Stuffed Pig: The very first thing I bought for baby! I loved how tiny and soft it was haha.
Muslin Swaddles: Come in several colors and I bought a few - great quality, super soft.
Knit Bears: Cuddle & Kind is this amazing brand that gives meals to children around the world with each purchase you make from their site! The stuffed animals are seriously well made & beautiful - and I just love that they are giving back so much with each purchase. Such a sweet company.
