"When I met with Lindy, the head designer, I basically gave her a Pinterest inspo board and just told her that I wanted something that is very neutral and has a lot of fun personality elements," Arnold explained, "but something that if we have a girl or a boy. we can just swap out little things and switch it up for them."
"We went with kind of like the African safari inspiration for our pictures in our nursery," Arnold pointed out. "We have the cutest little African safari animals above her crib, which is really special to us because that's actually where we got engaged was in Tanzania, Africa, so that's always kind of been a really cool thing for us, so when it came to what animals do you want in the nursery, that was like a no-brainer."
"We wanted a crib that was gonna be solid for all of our kids, something that was neutral and natural wood," she shared. "We love the natural wood look."
No matter what time it is, mom or dad will always have a spot to sit—and even put their feet up—with their little girl.
A vivid baby mobile helped add a splash of color to the room's neutral palette.
"It was such a surreal moment the day of the install with all of the nursery stuff, walking into that room and seeing a baby's crib in our home," Arnold recalled. "Sam and I just were so blown away and overwhelmed and excited. It just made everything feel so much more real."
"We absolutely love how everything turned out and just feel like it perfectly captured our vision for our nursery and for our baby girl," Arnold gushed. "I'm just so excited to see her in there. I think it's going to be so incredible just having that all come together."
