Hey guys! I'm Alexandra Gater and I show you how to do rental-friendly upgrades and DIY projects on a budget. Today I am making over my childhood best friend's nursery for her first baby! She loves whimsical, cottagecore style so this nursery is filled with pattern, colour and vintage finds!

I love this. I'm so over neutral nurseries. I feel like a whimsical baby mobile could be added yet 😉

[@battyboo3732]

What a great idea! I was thinking the space above the crib seemed empty but I think it could get crowded if they continued the gallery wall or put a large art piece. A mobile would be absolutely perfect!

[@sharonknorr1106]

I think she probably wanted to leave some empty space for the parents to specifically decorate with stuff for the baby when that happens. For instance, buying a mobile for over the crib is a fun thing for new parents to do (at least I would think so, we never used a crib, babies slept with us, so never really had the experience of designing a nursery, although had a lot of fun painting and decorating their rooms when they were young children.) Fantastic job, as usual, Alexandra. Funny, all of my favorite designers, on TV and KZbin, have been from Canada, although I am in the US. Also my favorite vegan vloggers. Hmmmmm. Grew up near Buffalo, so did spend a lot of time up north in my youth, including yearly summer vacations in the Muskoka Lake area. Love you Canadians.

So true!!! 🥰🥰

[@katmodlin9154]

The room is beautiful love the colors! Wish you would've put the beautiful wallpaper on the crib wall. You loose so much of it on with the window & blinds. The pink dresser & cheetah lamp were great touches!

[@RachelShadoan]

I was skeptical about the plum trim but it all came together so beautifully! The plum pipe gives that wall a really cool graphic feel. That wallpaper is so wonderful too.

[@reinaashley2593]

I know this is so not the point but the cat on the bed in the "before" shots of the room is sooo cutee i really love that y'all just went for the shot even tho kitty was front and center

[@CitizenTurtleIsland]

They could add a nice mobile hung from the ceiling and above the crib. Maybe little purple and white clouds or birds... New babies like the movement and the contrast in colours apparently. (At least that's what they told me about 20 years ago.) Lovely!

[@mersac9049]

I loved the wallpaper and it deserved to be on the big Wall. Other than that super cute room ❤️ well Done

[@user-ed7et3pb4o]

Yes I agree, it’s prettier than the paint and there’s too much going on by the windows too appreciate it properly

I also wish she wallpapered all the walls to be honest or if it was too expensive I wish she chose a wallpaper with a more colorful background and color matched the bag round color of the wall paper and continued it on… hope that made some sort of sense 😅

Love it but not enough whimsy, a bit too grown up

I swear, this might be the very best makeover you’ve ever done. The way you layered color and pattern is so sophisticated and unlike the usual baby room. It’s also not colorless as some of the overly neutral baby trends these days. Magnificent!

Oh Team AG 😍 Two-time mum here - what a beautiful, serene space for taking care of a baby. Especially during the late night shift, when it seems like all the world is asleep, and it's just the two of you ❤❤ I'm really moved by the care that has gone into this room.

[@sherineill6630]

This is just beautiful. What a wonderful serene space for new baby. The rocking chair is the perfect spot. I love this!! ❤

[@TamarLitvot]

You guys are experts at taking a small space and turning it into a separate world. I can imagine parent rocking in chair as baby falls asleep and this being a refuge from the stress of the day. Another great and creative redo. Wish I had known you when I had my babies- but that was a long long time ago.

[@lilchargetag]

Woo hoo! So excited to see a nursery! I’m currently in the process of designing our nursery, and there is not a ton of content I resonate with out there to draw inspo from. Thank you for showcasing this on your channel!

[@AlexandraGater]

I'm so happy to hear that!

[@wendyschlegel5031]

The nursery is so beautiful. What I like is that it's not matchy - matchy. But all the pieces go together. The wallpaper is so pretty and I love how you covered the blackout shade with fabric. What a fantastic renovation.

[@patroberts185]

I wish the wall paper was on the bed wall😢 Beautiful

[@lovealwaysmom]

This turned out very nice. An elegant, cozy and fun nursery. There are a few things I would change. This is coming from a mother of 2 adult daughters. Babies will twist their little fingers, hands around many things. Fringe, tassels. Loose fibers such as faux fur can be pulled off. Everything goes in their mouths.

[@alinalapkina1123]

Love the makeover! The colour, the whimsey :) just one tiny suggestion - raise that dresser with some legs otherwise moms back is going to suffer big time....

[@JaniceWithTheTarlovCyst]

Oh yes, that change table needed to be higher. I used a vintage dresser as a change table and after the first week I had my husband add new legs to raise it up.

[@raquelhoffmann4]

I never knew I wanted a old lady style nursery until now, this looks absolutely perfect! ❤

Not sure why you feature a pipe. I'd rather it disappear w/the green color.

[@adriennefoote1775]

I’m not a baby or an old lady but I need this room 😮 It’s absolutely gorgeous. Our bedroom is already a similar green with coral accents so now I have to figure out what I can paint in that plum shade, so dreamy!

[@CorpseBride64]

Team Gater, I am freaking out right now. I LOVE this color palette and THAT wall paper is so beautiful & perfect. I adore the "grow into" direction you went with. Btw, your bestie is so pretty. Congrats on your new baby! Alexandra, you slayed this space!! 💜

How intimidating to do this for your childhood friend, for the most important occasion of her life and she's clearly very tasteful. Congratulations, you nailed it! Just gorgeous and so functional. Amazing work. So creative.

[@Nandonandocan]

Why would you paint the AC tubing purple? Why would you make it stand out? You could have painted it the same green colour so it blends in. I absolutely love that wallpaper though!!!!

[@kathysult911]

I love the purple. It would still stand out painted the same color as the wall, so make it fun! ❤️

[@ruththomas6361]

Ficus trees do not like to be moved, so it was a good choice to just put the finicky baby back where it had been. Mine is nearly forty years old and STILL in its favorite spot. Happy plant; happy. . . . . . . . .plant. 😁 LOVE the colors and patterns in that room!

[@karenashworth5743]

3 years ago, when I told my friends and family I was painting my guest bedroom sage green and a plummy purple they were horrified. They ate their words, it looks amazing, I used A purple blackout blind I made myself that matched the paint and Olive green curtains. Painted the furniture to match and it seriously looks sensational.

[@GoogleUser-wx8mw]

Great reveal. The nursery is "serene," and that wall paper is FABULOUS. Great colors and a great job. I'd add a trash can and a receptacle for whatever kind of diapers they will use.

[@centralWisconsin1]

I would HIGHLY Suggest going back after filming this to ADD a raised rail / bumper around the perimeter of the front and sides of the changing table (so that it goes up at least 4 to 6 inches above the changing pad), BECAUSE it will help keep the baby from rolling OFF the changing table while it’s up there (extra safety for baby, and better peace of mind for mom & dad). Yes, I’m a dad, so please Trust Me on this! -Thank you! Besides this Highly Suggested (needed) SAFETY addition I just mentioned above, GREAT JOB Alexandra & Team AG!

[@MaryseMeunier]

I agree. Maybe not new borns, but babies a few months older are mooving a lot and so much sometime that they can fall even under the watch of an adult.

[@adb3677]

I freaking love that wallpaper. I love it so much I wish it wrapped around the wall behind the crib.

[@natatatt]

This is giving a lot of nostalgia about my own childhood room. I had the exact same green on the walls, and my Mum styled it to give a garden kind of vibe. And that wallpaper is stunning!

[@MonicaFarnsworth]

What an honor for Auntie Alexandra to do! It is stunning! I love the paper and love the light!

[@RocketChild]

This style is so beautiful. I love it for an adult space not just a baby

[@lenalernova]

I really love that the style they chose is so prominent. The configuration worked out very nicely after all the tries. While I love the juxtaposing color of the pipes, my OCD eyes can’t deal with the asymmetry. I would have had Graham build a faux piping on the other side of the AC, to have a full purple frame around that wall, and I might even have wallpapered within that frame. But my first idea, when you showed the AC setup was that I would put up a curtain rod above the pipe and fill it with huge linen curtain panels to create canopy above the the crib and completely cover the piping. Either way, great job, Team AG, the room has lovely vibes 🙌

[@EmmaDitnes]

Haven’t finished yet (so excited to see the finished room!), but was very relieved for functional purposes, to see that you chose to move the gallery wall to the side with the chair. Having been a nanny for so long and a lot of experience changing kids on changing tables, my first thought was “oh no! Once the baby is 7/8 months, they’re gonna start playing with the frames on the wall while they’re getting changed and then the gallery wall will have to come down!”

[@JayDubbluu]

I like the plum accents, but not on the pipe. A wooden box built around that would have been nice, for hiding the pipe and serving as a nice display unit. That would have worked with the plum paint better, maybe.

[@sharonrose3871]

the blind is a roller blind is beautiful hack however it is not a roman style blind... a roman has pleating as it folds in a horitzonal stack. good hack - used that in clients homes since the 80's. Great job on the makeover.

I love this room my only reservation is the purple aircon pipe. However that’s my personal choice. I have to say that your choices of colours are so on point . The blind is just a great hack and the furniture and rug are beautiful. You all seem to live working with each , so many laughs and fun . Thanks for sharing 😊

[@parissinclair6513]

I personally would've moved the wallpaper to that wall so that the curtain and tree could stand out on their own, and then wallpapered over the pipe and air conditioner. Either that or just painted it cream to blend in with the base color of the wallpaper. There's something about this room where the far wall feels very busy and chaotic, and the large wall with the crib feels a bit empty and unfinished.

[@tikusblue]

Seems a bit of an odd choice to bring so much attention to something as ugly as an aircon pipe. Most people would be trying to blend it in, not making it stand out

[@alinam5092]

I like the green walls, the furniture, but I don't like the purple (it's too dark, compared to the shade of green, it looks almost black), I don't understand why the AC pipe was painted purple (it's not something you want to highlight, ideally it shouldn't even have been on the wall or it should have been hidden at the border between the wall and the ceiling), the wallpaper is beautiful, but I would have put it on a bigger wall, so you could actually see it (too many elements on that wall, it's almost completely hidden and it clashes with the print of the blinds), I would have changed the lamp shade (is it black?), I don't know if there is enough storage space, the room is big enough to fit a bigger closet system. Probably my least favorite transformation on the channel, but I appreciate that it is not a regular nursery.

[@parissinclair6513]

I feel the exact same way unfortunately. In addition to everything you pointed out, I feel like it's missing that really British and whimsical feeling of the inspiration photos. This feels more American pastoral as opposed to old-money London.

Beautiful ❤️ Mom will feel the love every moment she's in the room.

Such a beautiful makeover These parents are bringing the baby home to a very magical nursery. Peaceful and relaxing. Love the crib. Great job

[@minervacuervo4662]

Gorgeous wall paper. It’s such a great makeover because it’s easily convertible to a grownup room.

[@tracyna89]

I know you moved the gallery wall for design reasons, but as someone who just lived this, it was a great move practically. Having art above your changing station only works for a few months until your baby can start grabbing. Changing a diaper while preventing your baby from pulling a framed piece of art down on themselves is not the vibe. We have books behind my rocking chair and now that he's older, he loves looking at them while I rock him to sleep. My guess is the art will provide similar visual interest as their baby matures. Great job!

[@tatikto]

[@erinlizdavis]

AG: I love you, you love me. Graham: Okay byeeee. 😅

[@curtainsup9]

I don't have good feelings about that shade over the long haul. ( not to mention the inside mount lets in too much light. I think the paper would have been better on a wall without the window breaking it up so much. I liked you friend's description of where and how she wanted the room to go. You nailed part of it. Loved the wallpaper and paint choices.

[@mikaela4912]

The purple on the pipe should continue past the aircon qnd down the other corner of the wall! Itll make it look framed and more intentional

[@margosnyder5311]

I know you are getting some negative comments about the plum air conditioner tubing, but I must say I think it’s fabulous! It matches the door and trim. Excellent job, Team AG!

[@user-ed7et3pb4o]

It’s lovely and I adore the inspo/practicality/wallpaper/furniture but I just wish the paint colours were slightly different🥲 like a more warm toned olive green maybe, and maybe a slightly darker green instead of the purple? Or else something pink/peach/coral but less dark. Also I feel like it needs curtains! But it is very beautiful regardless

[@lindawarden-burglund9603]

Beautiful room! Two suggestions, though. Switch out the mustard (eyesore!) foot cushion to a dusty pink. Plus, secure a soft cloth floral (complimentary to the wallpaper) or vintage baby tapestry over the crib. It would be very safe and add interest alongside the art gallery. Otherwise, it's a very sweet room.🩷🌿

Use the storage spaces in your childs closet to hide their future xmas and birthday gifts in. Label your boxes photos, fabric, holiday decorations, or whatever. My mom told me this trick when my first chlld was born. I never found my presents as a kid, and my son has never found his!

Beautiful space, definitely one of my dream room styles I've wanted since I was a kid for my "fairy collection room" I would imagine in my head. :) Glad Alexandra is mentioning important safety features for a child's room. Super important! :) We had a sheep skin rug growing up that me and my brother both took baby pictures playing on, so seeing that rug (though ours was golden) brought back memories of those childhood pictures and that rug.

[@carmenegonzalez5559]

i remove the hugh plant out of the room and the lamp with the black shade is a baby room other wise the room looks beautiful Alexandra...

What I love most about this baby room is that the color, wallpaper and rug could be a guest room for adults. The nursery is beautiful, whimsical but not juvenile.

[@Somethingcorporate99]

Absolutely love this, the only thing I'd have changed is I'd have used a spray adhesive to stick the fabric to the blind, only using hemming tape on the edges of the fabric leaves a large chance for it to come loose or bulge in the center. Absolutely brilliant idea though 😊

[@kansasgirl8371]

Spray adhesive is too toxic for a nursery, though, isn't it?

[@Somethingcorporate99]

@@kansasgirl8371 I genuinely don't understand how this would be an issue. If you were to use it in the room with the baby in it with you then yeah, probably a bad idea, but using it to adhere some fabric to a blind when the baby is nowhere near and with ample time to dry and for the room to air out (or ya know, do it outside of the room) then there would be nothing to be concerned by. That's like saying you shouldn't use super glue to fix things when you have kids because it's toxic. I'm genuinely confused by your comment.

The only thing is the micro over the freezer! I would build a table next to the cleaning supply closet for the microwave! The rest is beautiful! I think I’m going to do the title thing on my kitchen! ❤

That's a beautiful room

I used a dresser for a changing table too. It is so practical.

Finally a baby nursery! Would love to see a kids room/playroom too.

When I saw this was a nursery makeover, as a grandma of 8, I was like, oh I don’t want to watch that (sorry). However, it’s beautiful and could be any bedroom. Great job team AG! ❤✌️

The crib is just BEGGING for a canopy over it

The plum is just too much for me, but everything else is 🥰

The idea of enhancing the ac pipe, so crazy, bold and paid off. I love the wall paper Sara Nena DIY
