We’ve had a lot of requests to post some photos of Saxon’s nursery online. We wanted to create a space for Saxon that didn’t completely spell B-A-B-Y, a room that she wouldn’t outgrow right away. Wow. What a difficult task it was. Especially considering most baby furniture/decor looks like it was designed by a twelve year old using her “Groovy Barbie Furniture Designer” CD or her “It’s gotta be Pooh” templates.

Crib
Wow. Much harder to find something we liked than we would have imagined. Most American-made cribs are very, very tall - with the top rail typically coming in around the 55″ mark. Well, that’s too freakin’ tall for my short self. Put the mattress on the lowest setting to create the potential for some serious back pain.
We liked two cribs, the Oeuf Crib
which i thought had a great concept with the changing table strapped to the top and the overall extremely low profile of the crib. But Carey, liked the Aerial Crib (seen above in our photos) from NurseryWorks. Purchased from the good folks at Baby Bliss here in Dallas.
Dresser: NurseryWorks
Paint: RL French Pink - at least 7 or 8 different colors (light blue, green, yellows, pinks) were slopped on the walls in a how-do-ya-like-this-one effort before finding this color.
Dots: WallCandy Arts Multi-Color Dots stickers, yep, they’re removable. Our friend and designer extraordinaire, Leslie Metz created the swoosh on the wall.
Glider Chair & Ottoman: Target Online
Bedding: Target - Amy Coe Collection Rug: Pacifier Online Rosalie Rug by Haba
If I’ve missed something, just ask.

You have a very adorable baby, she is an angel! I am 4 months pregnant and my husband and I have been looking for a new camera to capture our precious moments. We noticed the amazing quality of pictures on your website and were wondering if you wouldn’t mind sharing the model and type with us. I hope this is ok!
Best of luck!

Congratulations on your upcoming arrival! The photos at MoseleyWorld are taken with a variety of cameras…but the majority of the images taken with Canon digital SLRs (Canon 5D, Canon 1D Mark II). Some taken with a Canon point & shoot (Canon SD700).
