serena and lily Archives - Coconut & Bean

Everything in my world seems to be fast-forwarding and I’m doing everything I can to keep up. Kindergarten, camp, fall scheduling, school, relationships, paperwork, end of summer, potty training and now a big girl bed. Coco has always been our “easy” one so when she kept us up two nights in a row with fits of rage coming from her crib we were thrown. Clearly, she was trying to tell us something. “Mom and Dad, I’m ready for a big girl bed.” OK, cut to running out Sunday night to grab one, hitting Target to buy bedding then flying home to get it all set up for bedtime. Coconut slept soundly in her big bed (with me in it for most of the night), so I think we’re on the right track. I’ve got everything we need except for a duvet and shams. She loves pink (of course), but I couldn’t help but fall for this turquoise option, duh. What’s your favorite?

Clever, clever, clever! And I love this dog.

This makes me want a second story even more than my screaming kids do! I was introduced to Serena and Lily nursery bedding a few years ago by a friend, sadly after I had already decorated Elle’s nursery, which eventually became Coco’s without much re-invention. I immediately fell in love with their beautiful designs-clean and contemporary without being too stuffy. Serena and Lily, named for its co-founders who met one fateful day in a Mill Valley baby boutique eight years ago, made bedding I wanted not only for my girls, but for myself. They also have a home interior collection to covet and this darling pic is from the cover of their Spring catalog. Pillows in incredible patterns and bold colors, leather Moroccan poufs that make me want to melt right over them, and beautifully textured table settings are just a taste of what they’re up to these days. Check them out, it’ll double your wish list.

Makes me want to do the girl's rooms all over again.

Pink and orange, one of my favorite color combos.
