Preparing for motherhood is a big transition, and Kristen wanted a space that felt calm, elevated, and safe for her baby. As a designer and a friend, I was honored to help bring her vision to life.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Through my work at John McClain Design and my coaching program, The McClain Method, I\u2019ve always believed that great design should combine beauty, functionality, and wellness. This nursery was the perfect opportunity to put that philosophy into practice.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>A Nursery with Purpose<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-24365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-960x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-960x1024.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-281x300.jpg 281w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-768x819.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-1440x1536.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-1920x2048.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-1568x1673.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_9265-scaled.jpg 1013w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Kristen had a clear goal: a room that could grow with her child, without feeling overly themed or temporary. She wanted a neutral foundation with space for creativity and personal touches over time. Safety was equally important, every finish and furnishing needed to meet a higher standard.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>One of the first decisions we made was to use\u00a0<em>BEHR PREMIUM PLUS\u00ae Interior Paint<\/em>. Its low-odor formula\u00a0aligned perfectly with Kristen\u2019s wellness priorities while offering durability for everyday life. For me, paint is one of the most impactful choices in any space, and this was no exception.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>The Power of Paint: Cameo White + Ultra Pure White\u00ae<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1016\" height=\"590\" class=\"wp-image-24368\" src=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Cameo-White-and-UPW.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Cameo-White-and-UPW.png 1016w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Cameo-White-and-UPW-300x174.png 300w, https:\/\/www.behr.com\/colorfullybehr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Cameo-White-and-UPW-768x446.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1016px) 100vw, 1016px\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To create a serene, layered look, I chose two complementary whites:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><strong>Walls (Eggshell) \u2013 <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.behr.com\/consumer\/ColorDetailView\/MQ3-32\">BEHR Cameo White PPU7-13<\/a>.
