Be whisked away in a daydream full daisies, hot air balloons and birds floating about in Liz Barbosa's nursery. Accented by organic shapes and textures, this nursery boasts a classic floral theme that feels fresh. Read on as Liz chats about the inspiration behind her whimsical nursery for baby Isla.
My name is Liz, I live in Salt Lake City, Utah with my husband, daughter, 2 little frenchie dogs, a cat and 7 chickens. We are a designer family—my husband is a UX designer and I am UI/Visual designer with a degree in fashion design. When I’m not designing or taking care of my little farm, I love to spend time outdoors hiking, camping or trail running.
Boho, modern, organic
Get the Look
I wanted to create a natural, free spirited space—a room that feels warm, peaceful and magical by bringing a mix of organic textures, patterns, natural woods and colors.
I was looking for a statement wall, adding daisies was a way to add a feminine touch while still feeling natural and organic with that hand drawn look. It adds a soft touch to the room and brings in a whimsical vibe.
Think timeless back bones! And add lots of little details to make it feel magical. Everything I picked I made sure is something that will last forever. From the dresser, to the rocker, to the Nelson floor lamp to the Wave crib, I made sure it was all good quality materials and furniture that my daughter will have for many years.
I love all the hanging pieces, the wicker hot air balloons, the canopy and the stork. They add texture, depth and a dreamy feel to the space.
My favorite moments so far are the mornings, when my baby is in a cheery mood and we spend quality time together. We rock on the chair while I breastfeed her and then we do tummy time on the rug. Lots of bonding time!
