Real Rooms - Brother & Sister Love

This twins nursery has been making its way across the blogs the past few weeks but I still wanted to share it with those of you who aren't obsessed with blogs like I am.  The mother and master mind behind this nursery is a reader of Nursery Notations and sent me these gorgeous photos last week. I think my favorite aspect of the room is the scrabble-inspired artwork above the glider.  A great solution for a twin's room!

1- What was the inspiration for your room?

We wanted a hip and modern nursery that woould be gender neutral but very contemporary.  With twins, organization and layout are key.  We wanted the room to have nice flow but also be practical for all their needs.

2 - What was the first piece that you purchased for the room?

I fell in love with the Oeuf cribs the second I saw them.  I also knew the wall color way ahead of time because I love all things aqua. 

3 - What is your favorite aspect of the room?

I love the giant photographs.  I had the idea in mind for them when I first started designing the room, but waited until we took these photos at four months before I took the plunge.  I'm glad I waited because their newborn shots would not have done the room justice.  These photos truly capture their personalities.

4 - Now that your room is complete, what would you change or do differently if you could?

I honestly have no regrets.  We moved into a new home when the twins were four months.  Their original nursery was wonderful but very cramped.  It really helped me to design this nursery both in regards to space and organization.

5 - Please share some of your sources with our readers!

The photos above the bed were taken by Shelley Armenio (monkeyfacephoto.com). She also shot the pictures of the room.

The cribs are Oeuf Classic Cribs in walnut. The glider is Pottery Barn Baby and the xoxo pillow is from Pottery Barn Teen {discontinued}. The rug is chevron from West Elm. The mobiles above the crib are Pottery Barn baby.
The changing table is Bellini with knobs changed out with turquoise/aqua ones from Anthropologie.

The graphic art above the changer and in the bathroom was designed and printed by me. I run a stationery studio and blog in Boca Raton called Papery & Cakery {www.paperyandcakery.com/blog.htm}. I also provided the tray on the changing table.
The pear mirror is Jonathan Adler, representing our "pair" of babies.

Both the giant scrabble letters as well as the adorable whale kleenex box are from Etsy

Thank you Niki for share some insight into the design of your wonderful room!
