Decorating can be difficult; we have been there. At times, we decorate with themes — whether it be planes, trains or automobiles — and then there are times that you are determined to pull a room together because you’ve found the perfect bedding.  Whether you are decorating nurseries or big-kid rooms, Design Diva is here to help! Today we continue our newest series… When that must-have bedding has caught your eye and it is time to plan the rest of the room!

Today’s spotlight is on the Serena and Lily Hazel Crib Bedding Set. Fabulous in lavender and mocha brown with contemporary florals and prints, the Hazel Crib Bedding Set is ideal for mommy’s wishing to stay feminine without using the traditional pinks and pastels.

Hazel doesn’t follow trends. She follows her instincts. She loves roaming the swap meets for vintage sunglasses,
vinyl albums and bric-a-brac  — anything with history and soul. An old soul herself, Hazel is confident, quirky and above all, a true original.

We’ve scoured the {over} 5,000 products at Polka Dot Peacock and have found the most amazing combinations…
We hope that you’ll love them as much as we do!!!

1. Add a supersoft touch with the DwellStudio Sparrow Graphic Knit Blanket — Throw it across the back of the glider or drape it over the side of the crib when baby isn’t in it… Either way, the Sparrow Knit Blanket is a perfect match!
2. A modern alternative to the traditional chandelier, cast a soft glow with the Oilo Taupe Double-Decker Light! Use it alone or create a  lighting collection by adding one or two Oilo’s Solid Taupe Cylinder Light!
3. Add a vintage appeal with the Byrdie Graphics Vintage Flowers Wall Decals, which can be applied to most wall textures as well as many other smooth surfaces including windows, appliances, sinks, tubs and doors! Available in 25 color options, but shown below in lavender and mocha.
4. Make a mundane task at least exquisitely beautiful with the Little House by Annette Tatum Floral Spray Lilac Changing Pad Cover! Delicately feminine and essentially necessary!

Serena and Lily also offer a full collection of Hazel Crib Bedding accessories — including pillows, wall paint and more — which come together as yet another alternative for a perfectly coordinated room. View the entire Hazel Crib Bedding Collection at Polka Dot Peacock!

We bought the large DwellStudio Transportation Storage Bin for Christmas with high hopes of creating some sanity in the chaos we call his room.  Blake LOVES the design with all kinds of vehicles on the bin. He loves putting his books on CD in there — and loves knowing where they are. Blake and his little brother Drew have a great time playing Jack in the Box in the bin as well — it’s that big!  We can’t recommend the bin enough to any family who needs some creative storage space for their kids’ mess.  And, be sure to buy it at Polka Dot Peacock where we buy ALL of our baby gifts these days.  The selection, prices, and fast delivery cannot be beat anywhere on the web!

Welcome to Baby Shower 101, a new series from Polka Dot Peacock — focused on gift-giving from the eyes of real parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and gift-givers near and far! Whether your budget is $25 or $200, we have gift-givers ready with ideas!

So, I kick this off with the gift I gave at the most recent baby shower I attended. One of my baby girl favorites — though there are so many to choose from!

DwellStudio Sparrow Sleepsack ($48): I love this because it is practical… Keeps baby warm and is super-soft at the same time. I like that it is 100% cotton percale, which seems practical in the summertime {vs. the fleece styles traditionally offered at baby superstores}. Since my friend isn’t due until mid-March and we live deep in the heart of Texas, I thought this would be a great option for her baby girl!

Gift Grand Total: $48
Baby H. is cozy and super adorable.

And,there it is. One amazing piece to create an amazing gift.

For this weekend only, enjoy $25 off 4 of our best-selling DwellStudio Crib Bedding Sets! DwellStudio has all the little touches that transform a room into a proper nursery — in charming prints and bold colors that are every bit as sophisticated as our designs for grown-ups. DwellStudio nursery staples include big decorative statements — rugs, wall art, and their much-loved crib bedding — as well as adorable accessories like pillows and sleep sacks. As with all of DwellStudio’s pieces, everything is designed to coordinate together, creating a harmonious and peaceful space for baby.

DwellStudio Sparrow Crib Bedding Set: A kid friendly take on the classic Chinoiserie pattern, this charming print features blooming boughs and sweet songbirds who will lull your little one to sleep.

DwellStudio Owls Sky Crib Bedding Set: A popular decorative motif in the 1950s and 1960s, the owl has finally made its return. DwellStudio’s take on the wise woodland creature recalls classic versions but is updated with a sweetly playful sensibility.

DwellStudio Dots Chocolate Crib Bedding Set: From DwellStudio’s debut baby collection, the best-selling graphic Dots Chocolate pattern is reminiscent of pop-art designs and modern geometric motifs of the mid-20th century. Since babies initially see high contrast objects and patterns, DwellStudio’s Dots Chocolate is the perfect way to stimulate a baby’s sense of sight while starting them out in style.

DwellStudio Paper Dolls Crib Bedding Set: For their enchanting Paper Dolls design, DwellStudio went back to a childhood favorite. The print’s colorful silhouettes recall old-school cut out dolls and are sure to inspire young imaginations, and the fun graphics and tones make an easy transition from baby to toddler room decor.

DwellStudio’s emphasis on great design is matched by their commitment to the quality, safety, and the environment. DwellStudio is reducing their carbon footprint to make this a better planet for all DwellStudio families. DwellStudio products are created using low-impact dyes. These dyes contain no heavy metals or other known toxic substances. They’re free of formaldehyde and azo dyes, and meet all the criteria for eco-friendly pigments. Furthermore, DwellStudio has completely redesigned their packaging, eliminating PVC and using only eco-friendly materials. DwellStudio’s chic new bags and boxes are specifically designed for reuse — whether for storage, laundry, or travel.
