I'm a toddler mom (with one on the way) who has a passion for interiors. I'm a recovering lawyer addicted to coastal casual style, spray paint, shelter magazines and the color turquoise. I started my blog, EmbraceMySpace, as a tribute to the home I had to sell when my family was relocated for my husband’s job. Now I'm tackling design and DIY projects at my new home; loving every success and learning from every failure along the way!

DIY Chalkboard Purple and White Striped Dresser

DIY Chalkboard Stripe Dresser for Nursery

I painted this chalkboard stripe dresser for my son’s room.  I thought the stripes were cute for a nursery, but also functional since I can change out the chalk labels as I reorganize the drawers.  Plus it makes it easy for my hubby to help with laundry :)

Sweet DIY Pumpkins fit for a Nursery

Just a cute little DIY project to keep me busy while waiting for baby’s arrival.  I wanted to add some fall décor to the space while still staying within the color scheme.  I decoupaged one of the pumpkins and the others I adorned with ribbon/rick rack.

DIY Nursery Mobile

DIY Paper Nursery Chandelier

I made this simple chandelier-inspired nursery mobile using cardstock, strips of ribbon and a hanging planter.
