Everyone is talking about Bratt

We at Bratt are swooning over this beautiful, white nursery space as revealed in this month's issue of Pregnancy and Newborn magazine. The space is delicate, simple and elegant. Most noticeable is the texture, which is the main design focus.

Pink and gold have reigned supreme in baby girl nurseries for quite sometime, but Tamera Mowry's gorgeous rendition, designed by Ms. Shalena Smith of Gaga Designs, is in a league of its own.  The tone on tone pink striped walls set the stage for the gorgeous white carved lifetime crib by Bratt Decor, which is draped in silk suspended from a golden crown.  The luxurious custom designed silk bedding, with gold bows, by Bratt Decor, finishes the look with understated elegance.  Other great touches like the personalized ceiling medallion, crystal chandelier and ultra luxe rocker add sophistication and comfort. We love the personal touches throughout, like the tiny stool in the corner which Tamera has had for years.

Mary Bauer and her husband Stephen claim their story started like many others. Young, in love, and expecting their first child, they excitedly set about creating their dream nursery. It was 1995 and choices were limited. Designer baby furniture simply didn't exist, so they invented it themselves. Bratt Decor was born, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Sold exclusively at Gigi Brooks in the UK, Bratt Decor offers timeless, elegant and original furniture for your baby's nursery. We sat down with Mary to find out more about this exquisite brand and the husband and wife team behind its success.

What inspires you?
Everything. I’m inspired by the love of a new family, the washed out colours of an old barn, and the never-ending symphony that is nature all around us. ??

What do you love most about designing nursery furniture???
I love knowing how it will touch the lives and hold

Bratt Decor is so excited to have our Belvedere Glider featured in Pregnancy & Newborn's Registry Guide this Spring.  

As makers of the most gorgeous iron cribs, Bratt Decor gets this question all the time. The short answer is, just as with wooden cribs, it depends. If you are buying a brand new crib, by law, all cribs must adhere to the most current safety standards as set forth by the U. S. Consumer Safety Commission. There is absolutely no difference as far as safety is concerned, between a brand new wood crib or a brand new iron crib. Older model and used cribs, regardless of their construction materials, may no longer meet safety standards, and may have been compromised in their integrity with usage and storage. We always recommend, if no where else, buy new when it comes to your crib. After all, this is the place where your baby will spend the most amount of time without your eyes on them.

People fear that because metal is

Designing your nursery is a wonderful experience and can help you grow even closer to your baby, as you begin to imagine them in the beautiful space you create. Hanging tiny outfits in the closet, dressing the crib, and hanging art make it all so real. But, sometimes creating the perfect space can be overwhelming and stressful. Bratt Decor has added an amazing feature, DESIGN BOARD, to their website, making creating your space stress free and fun. With this feature, designing moms and dads everywhere, can add any furnishings or décor from our site, choose floor coverings, (we have a variety of hardwoods, wall to wall carpets and rugs), wall coverings (choose any paint color, wall paper, etc), and so much more. Changing the wall color has never been this easy. We’ve also added a feature that will allow the user to upload any thing they’d like to add by

n the past I have never put a crazy amount of thought into our nursery design. With Kelton we had a tight budget and I couldn't make up my mind. When I was expecting Kernan, I knew I wanted something simple and clean, plus he was staying in our room so there wasn't much planning needed. This time I am feeling the need to actually put a lot of thought and effort into our little girls room.
Contemporary Elegance: Being as this is my first girl and my last baby, I want to enjoy the girly aspects of nursery decorating and our home is more traditional. So the 1st room I cam up with is very much with the flow of our home. I started with a beautiful crib and dresser from Bratt Decor with clean lines and beautiful detailing. I wanted to use rich color and keep it mature. So

Go for the gold! That’s what I keep telling myself as I wrestle with my
latest nursery design for my little girl arriving in no time. I can’t
help but be inspired by the contrasting metals and shimmery metallics
that have made a huge splash in the world of interiors. And now, like
most hot trends, they’ve made their way into the world of nursery.
Fortunately for me, our favorite children’s furniture makers do not
disappoint! So the question remains, should I really go for a gold crib?

The prestigious industry publication, Baby and Children’s Product News, chose our gorgeous Chelsea Darling in antique silver as their cover girl.
The Chelsea Darling is way beyond a crib. It is an oval nursery sleep system that is actually 3 beds in 1. The first bed your newborn will use, a sophisticated cradle, turns into a beautiful crib and then an elegant daybed. Bratt Decor’s oval sleep systems combine brilliant design with luxury styling to keep your baby surrounded in style and sophistication from birth throughout the toddler years. The white finish is soft, clean, and pure with light hand distressing giving it a timeless look. The cradle pad and mattress are included in the purchase price. Everything you need to convert it from a cradle to a crib is included. Opt for the daybed kit and continue your look throughout your child's toddler years. The overall area is slightly smaller

Perhaps you caught the segment this week on Extra that featured the gorgeous neutral nursery for baby Dominic by Bratt Decor. But i case you missed, we caught up with the talented designer and Bratt Decor President, Mary Bauer, who designed the nursery for Mario & Courtney.“I had such a great time working with the Lovely Lopez’s the first time around, that going back was a bit like going home,“ says Mary Bauer.
Once again, the Lopez’s decided not to find out the sex of the baby but Mrs. Lopez was sure about the look she wanted: glamour, sophistication and comfort. The result was a beautiful nursery in black, grays and white. The bold wall paper was softened filling the room by leaving some walls white and adding sumptuous white velvet bedding and window treatments. Also white was the round flokati rug, leather nursing chair and child sofa. Now that

Our client is a true cowgirl at heart, and wanted to pass on her love of all things western to her new baby. We wanted to create a chic nursery that was western in style, but still elegant and not overly thematic. We started by taking a rustic color scheme as our inspiration, using earthy tones and deep reds as our palette. We brought in a lot of wood tones and textures, and made sure the main furniture pieces were elegant and versatile. Our client had a very special vintage saddle stand, which we turned into an ottoman for the glider, adding sentimentality to the space. The textiles are a mix of luxurious silks and rustic suedes. The nursery was completed with a pop of cow print and a fabulous hide rug to pull the whole space together.
