This jewellery designer created a warm welcome for baby Arrow James using vintage finds, cute animals and her flair for colour and pattern
At first Jade Leigh Kelly – brand director and head designer for Karen Walker Jewellery and first-time mother – didn’t intend to create a full-blown nursery. The guest bedroom in her Ponsonby villa was going to be a basic baby room with just the essentials. But when she started looking into all the things she’d need, Jade fell into a whole new world of interesting and beautiful furniture and objects. “I couldn’t resist the opportunity to create a fun and interesting space for baby,” she says.
