Teal and Emerald: A Gender Neutral Nursery

March 28, 2018

I can’t get enough of the unexpected colour clash of teal blue and emerald green- the pairing is rich and saturated, but also manages to look fresh at the same time.  Emerald and teal works beautifully in a gender-neutral nursery against white walls and high-contrast navy accents.  This not-too-cutesy nursery manages to be fun and playful, but won’t require a total overhaul as your little one grows (unless you want to steal that lamp for your living room… I think I would).

Loving this colour combo?

Check out this post for more tips on bringing teal and emerald into the rest of your space.

PS. Our Emerald Squares Quilt in teal blue and emerald green is available in small and large sizes, and can be used as a playmat, blanket or wallhanging.  Shop the collection here!

Entryway Inspiration: Decorating with Quilts

August 13, 2019

When we purchased our 130-year-old fixer-upper for a bargain five years ago, we went giddy with renovations. New kitchen, updated bathrooms, refinished floors, painted walls- almost every room got a fresh start. But then we ran out of steam (and, um, money). Five years later, our long and narrow front hall is still painted primer white, has no trim or mouldings, and is generally a dumping ground for stuff that doesn’t really belong anywhere else.
