Featured Nursery

The Force Nursery

Navy crib bedding, a rich chocolate canopy, and a curated gallery wall that tells an epic story: The Force is an adventure nursery for families who grew up dreaming of distant worlds. Sage green accents soften the palette so the room feels cozy instead of dark, and it grows easily with your baby from the newborn weeks into the big-kid years.

Use the design exactly as shown, or make it yours. Swap a color, change a fabric, or add your baby’s name, and your room is still one of a kind.

Complete the Look

Blankets are for display and supervised snuggles. Keep the crib bare during sleep for babies under 12 months.

How It Works

Three Simple Steps to a Nursery You'll Love

Designing a nursery from scratch can feel like a second full-time job: endless scrolling, fabric swatches that never quite match, and bedding sets that look nothing like the photos. The process below takes that weight off your shoulders and gives you one clear path from the idea in your head to a finished room.

1. Book Your Bedding Brainstorm

It starts with a relaxed virtual conversation about your style, your colors, the theme you keep coming back to, and the budget you want to stay inside. You leave with fabric direction, pattern ideas, and a personal quote for your custom crib bedding.

2. See Your Nursery Before It Exists

Want to see the whole room first? Your Baby Wonderland Blueprint maps the nursery out for you: a visual concept of the finished space plus a curated list of every piece, from crib bedding to the rug and wall art, so you shop with confidence instead of guessing.

3. Your Bedding, Handmade and Delivered

Once you approve your design, each piece is cut and sewn to order in the fabrics you chose. Custom work takes time to do right, so plan on six to ten weeks from approval to your door, with updates from your designer along the way.

Nursery Design Services

Custom Crib Bedding

Bespoke Crib Bedding, Made to Order for Your Nursery

Off-the-shelf crib sets come in a handful of prints and a one-size-fits-most cut. Custom crib bedding starts with your nursery instead: your palette, your theme, and your fabrics, sized to your crib and finished by hand. Pair a bold print with a quiet solid, add a monogram, or match a fabric to a piece of art you already love.

Choose the set that fits the room. The Platinum 3-piece set includes a fitted crib sheet, a blanket, and a dust ruffle, starting at $499. The Platinum 4-piece set adds a crib rail cover that protects the rail and finishes the look, starting at $899. Detailed upgrades such as patchwork or shirring raise the price, and your exact price is set during your Bedding Brainstorm.

Every bedding set includes 7 months of designer access at no charge. Questions about paint colors, a rug that’s not quite right, or which lamp to choose? Our design team is there to guide you through every decision as the rest of your nursery comes together.

Not Sure Where to Start?

Start With One Conversation

Tell us about the room, the theme you keep coming back to, and your due date. After one $99 Bedding Brainstorm you’ll have a direction, a fabric plan, and a quote, with no obligation to go further.

Heirloom Blankets & Gifts

Sealed With a Kiss: Handmade Baby Gifts Worth Keeping

Some baby gifts get used for a season. Others get folded into a keepsake box and handed down. Our Sealed With a Kiss collection, SWAK for short, is made for the second kind: chunky chenille and mixed-stitch crochet baby blankets, heirloom dolls, and soft nursery storage baskets, each one handcrafted by skilled artisans.

They make a thoughtful baby shower gift, a sweet addition to a custom nursery, or the finishing touch that ties a room together. Blankets start at $72, and many pieces come in several colors so you can match your nursery palette.

Meet Your Design Team

The LDD Design Team

Every nursery we design starts the same way: with a conversation about the family it’s for. Our roots in the baby and nursery world go back to Baby’s 1st, a family-owned baby business where our founder spent years learning the craft and falling in love with creating beautiful spaces for new life. After 20 years in the nursery business, we’ve learned that the rooms parents love most aren’t copied from a catalog. They’re built around a story, whether that’s a favorite storybook, a family heritage, a color that simply feels like home, or a name you’ve been saving for years.

We understand the other side of it too: overdue, exhausted, overwhelmed, and still wanting everything to be perfect for your baby. That understanding is woven into every design, because we know how much a calm, finished nursery means when your due date is getting close.

Lively Distinct Designs is fully virtual, so you can work with us from anywhere, on your schedule, without a single store visit. You’ll talk with real people from your first Brainstorm to the day your bedding arrives, and every design is one of a kind, because your baby is too.

You bring the vision and the budget. We’ll bring the fabrics, the plan, and the wow.

Questions

Custom Nursery Design FAQ

How does a virtual nursery design work?

Everything happens online. After you book, you share photos of the room, its measurements, and any inspiration you’ve saved, and we talk through your style and budget. Your design arrives digitally, so you never have to drive to a showroom or schedule an in-home visit, and you can work with us from anywhere.

Where should I start?

Most parents start with the $99 Bedding Brainstorm. It’s a focused conversation about fabrics, colors, and theme that ends with a personal quote for your custom crib bedding. If you’d like the whole room planned, the Baby Wonderland Blueprint maps out the full nursery.

What does a custom nursery cost?

It depends on how much help you want. The Bedding Brainstorm is $99 and the Baby Wonderland Blueprint is $179. Custom crib bedding sets run from $499 for the 3-piece set to $899 for the 4-piece set, and most LDD Originals fall between $499 and $899. Your Brainstorm quote spells out exactly what your nursery will cost before you commit to anything.

How long does custom crib bedding take?

Plan on six to ten weeks from the day you approve your design. Every piece is cut and sewn to order, so starting early in your pregnancy gives you the most breathing room. If your due date is close, mention it when you book and we’ll plan around it.

How should I use crib bedding with a newborn?

For babies under 12 months, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends a bare crib with only a fitted sheet, so decorative pieces such as blankets are best enjoyed outside the crib until your pediatrician says otherwise.

What should I have ready before my Brainstorm?

A few photos of the room, its rough measurements, the crib you plan to use, and anything that inspires you, such as a Pinterest board, a fabric swatch, or a favorite children’s book. Don’t worry if you don’t have a theme yet. Helping you find one is part of the conversation.

Can you match a theme or fabric I already have?

Yes. Send a photo of the fabric, wallpaper, artwork, or storybook you love, and your design is built around it. Matching a piece you already own is one of the most common requests, and it’s a big part of what makes a custom nursery feel personal.

Can I customize an LDD Original?

Absolutely. Each LDD Original is a starting point, not a fixed kit. Swap the colors, change a fabric, or add your baby’s name or monogram, and your finished nursery will still be one of a kind.

Your Baby's Story Deserves a Room to Match

Whether you know exactly what you want or only have a feeling, the first step is the same: a conversation about your baby, your style, and your budget. Book your Bedding Brainstorm today, or call with any questions.
