When HGTV's Leanne Ford set out to design her niece's nursery, she was given free rein to use her creative license and design the baby room of her dreams. With one small caveat: the home is a rental.
Luckily, Ford is a do-it-yourself veteran: from her years of experience as an interior designer to her time renovating on popular home-oriented shows like Restored with the Fords and Rock the Block; the acclaimed designer knows her way around an easy, affordable, and rental-friendly DIY project. In our exclusive interview on the playful space she designed in partnership with Crate & Barrel using Crate&kids furniture, she gave us all of her secrets. The stylish look includes pieces from Leanne's own Crate & Barrel collection.
