Consider Pink and Yellow
When it came time to create a nursery for her little girl, Leighton, brand stylist and award-winning graphic designer Erika Brechtel of Small Shop Studio channeled her Hawaiian roots. "I found some inspiration from our trip to the Honolulu Zoo — where she [Leighton] first saw flamingos, elephants, and zebras — and a touch from the tropical regency style of the very pink Royal Hawaiian Hotel," Erika says. Her goal was to create a room that not only was beautiful, but that also captured Leighton's exuberant personality. Click through and check out what we think was a resounding success!
