Whimsical Nursery

Sarah Pope designed this beautiful room for baby Annalee. She found inspiration for the wisteria branches above the changing table from a Land of Nod catalog.

Attention Grabber

Pope kept the decor simple yet purposeful. The bird and flower arrangement by the crib gives the area a fun focal point.

Pope painted the branches and frames white so that they would work better with the nursery. The colors of the birds complement the grey walls.
