Book Description

May 1, 2009
Tracy Hutson is an acclaimed interior designer. She’s also the loving mother of two little boys. When designing their bedroom, she knew precisely what she wanted: a nursery that would be mentally stimulating yet emotionally comforting. A place that would maximize safety, shielding adventurous toddlers from harm. And a room that would be built and decorated with a healthy dose of environmental responsibility.
 
In Feathering the Nest, Hutson shares her passion for creating children’s spaces—putting her guiding principles into practice for four different styles of nursery design: vintage, contemporary, traditional, and international. Featuring stories and photos of actual children’s rooms from around the country, the book focuses on the essential components of nursery design, including the special touches that make a room your child’s very own. The warmth and creativity of Hutson’s approach will inspire every parent to create the ideal nest for their child.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Ideas and Beautiful Pictures! April 30, 2009
By Jerre
Format:Hardcover
This book is the perfect guide to create a space in your home for new babies and growing youngsters. Tracy shows how to capture each child's individuality by using inspiration pieces, keepsakes and unique earth friendly furniture and toys made of natural materials. I love how Tracy makes use of small spaces, gives storage tips, and uses great color combinations. Beautiful pictures and a where to buy reference guide.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful and Inspirational! June 25, 2009
Format:Hardcover
I just love this book! My sister-in-law gave this to me as a gift at my baby shower. I had an idea of the kind of nursery I wanted, but wasn't sure where to start. I literally saw the exact nursery I had been envisioning in her book. Her book is user-friendly, and gives so many tips and ideas to create the perfect space for your baby. Now I have a beautiful and peaceful space for my daughter where my daughter will grow and play, all thanks to my sister-in-law! I would have been lost without this book! This book is a GREAT gift for any expecting parent!

Format:Hardcover
This book was given to me as a gift upon the birth of my son. Not only is it inspirational, but practical too! The book explains how to acheive the dream nursery, and even gives you suggestions on how to incorporate your own personal touches. I didn't think I had a creative bone in my body, but I was wrong. Feathering the Nest really inspired me to get creative and have fun decorating my son's room, and showed me that it doesn't have to cost a fortune!!! I love love LOVE this book! Not only did it help me design a dream space for my newborn son, now I can hardly wait to redecorate my 2 year old daughter's room!! I will be giving this book as a gift for every baby shower!
