  2. Crib: 3-in-1 Convertible Crib

  3. Glider: Chris Loves Julia Swivel Glider

The Lightning

  2. Sconce: LALA Reimagined Wood Shaded Sconce

  3. Floor Lamp: Greyson Floor Lamp

The Decor

  2. Curtain: Cotton Linen Gingham Curtain

  3. Pillow: Velvet Trova Pillow

  4. Rug: Loloi Judy Collection Natural / Cream Area Rug
