What better way to welcome a new baby than with the sweet, soft nostalgia of vintage nursery decor? When you choose the superiority of quality textiles, custom-made craftsmanship and the elegant designs of past eras you know that your choices will stand the test of time since vintage never goes out of style!

 

Tip #1: Find Your Inspiration

 

Choose one heirloom-quality, vintage showpiece as inspiration for the entire room. This can be anything from an classic illustration in an ornate, vintage frame to a favorite vintage fabric pattern.

  • pale rose

  • faded blue
