I’ll post proper photos soon… it takes a bit of work to get the room ready to photograph and I’ve been so very tired lately.

HI, I’m a regular lurker, I have an award for you on my blog!
erin
looks lovely! your little one is going to be so lucky to have such stylish parents!
just so ya know the etsy shop paulinagtz, has a wallhanging set with that thomas paul fabric… it may be a little matchy-matchy in the same room as the pillow but could look cute in the nursery!

Your house is always an inspiration!!

I second Jess’ request… WHEN you’re up to it, of course. Frankly, all bets are off when you’re carrying another little body around – and I find you amazing, Nicole, so just keep doin what you’re doin, whenever you get to it. Blogs can be caught up on; baby-time can’t. (P.S. I plugged you over at AT in a comment about pink living rooms/walls… yours are so classy, Lady!)

I found your blog a few weeks ago and have loved catching up on the transformation of your home! Would you be willing to show us (you know, in all that free time between building a baby and running businesses and beautifying your home ;)) how you’ve hung the artwork in your LR from the picture rail? It’s very sleek and exactly what I’d like to do in my own new-to-me old house, so I’m curious what materials you used and how you hooked things up.

I love those two pillows together!

Nicole,
First I want to comment on the site makeover. I love it! Especially the hexagon tile background and the yellow flowers at top right and bottom. Great work!
Second, I love the Hable construction pillow. I have wanted one of their rectangular bags for some time now.
patricia
Can I just say how happy I am that you are tired….remember – it is all for a good cause! Sleep and enjoy every minute of feathering your lovely nest.

Nicole, I just saw your last Twitter.
I can send you a copy of Real Living, if you like. (I love it!) I have 2 copies of June 2008, or I can pick up a Jan/Feb 09 edition for you. Let me know!
Nicholle Fretwell
Mmm… somebody got a new Eames rocker! Beautiful palette, Nicole (as always)… I’d have loved to grow up in such feel-good surroundings!

Completely off topic, but every time I see your site on my blogroll, the name, sung to the tune of Stevie Wonder’s “Isn’t She Lovely” runs through my head. It’s quite catchy!
Jennifer
LOVE the colors and patterns!
Hannah
Hi,
First time here.Very pretty. The room looks very feminine and delicate.:)
Making it Lovely
I know. They’re gorgeous, but expensive. I had wanted that pillow for years and I finally bought it during their 30% off sale.
Julie, yes that’s the new rocker! I love the color.
josh (in wonderland)
PS: i have always had a thing for the pillows from hable. @_@ the patterns are so beautiful. but $140? :< maybe in a few years.
josh (in wonderland)
THOSE PILLOWS. … i love them. you are so good at coordinating patterns in textiles/wallpaper/etc.
i can’t wait to see more pictures of the room :DDD
katiedid
Take care of yourself. I can see the Pink and Brown is hard at work in many ways! You are really making it lovely. :)
julie.
It that the new shell rocker? That’s the color I was hoping you’d decide on! :)
bungalowbliss
I am loving that fabric! I need some pillows like this for my front porch furniture…having a terrible time finding something just right, though. I’m off to check out the link you posted. Thanks!
Whitney
Definitely take a nap. I had a son six months ago, and it always amazes me how much sleep I need. He’s sleeping through the night finally and I still need a long nap just to feel normal. Having a kid gives you a ticket to take naps until they’re out of the house. :-)
Saima
Hi Nicole, I somehow stumbled onto your blog a couple of weeks ago and have been hooked ever since!
You have a great eye for beautiful design :) Keep up the great work and thank you for letting us in on the process.
Making it Lovely
I’ve been taking naps! I sleep 10-12 hours each night now and I STILL need to nap during the day. Sheesh. Everyone’s telling me to sleep now though, while I still can. ;)
Jazmin, the pink pillow is from Hable Construction and the other was from Thomas Paul.
Jazmin Espinal
Nicole, you always outdo yourself with details! I have been an avid follower of your blog for months now and this is my first comment (shameful). I actually found you in a decorating magazine with your library makeover(lol).
P.S- Did you make those pillows yourself? If so what fabric did you use, its gorgeous!

Catherine
aww, you need a nap! growing a human is HARD work :) I love your sheers and the new pillows too!
