Designing a nursery? Here are some of our favorite trends:
🌿 Natural and Sustainable Elements:
The trend towards eco-friendly and sustainable nursery designs continues to gain popularity. Parents are incorporating natural materials like wood and organic fabrics, as well as sustainable furniture and decor, creating a serene and earthy ambiance.
🤎 Neutral and Earthy Color Palettes:
Neutral and earthy color schemes are on the rise, moving away from traditional gender-specific colors. Soft grays, muted greens, and earth tones create a calming atmosphere and provide a versatile backdrop for various nursery themes.
🧺 Multifunctional and Space-Saving Furniture:
With the emphasis on functionality, parents are opting for furniture that serves multiple purposes and maximizes space. Convertible cribs that transform into toddler beds, changing tables with storage solutions, and compact furniture arrangements are popular choices for modern nurseries.

The Colgate Mattress Story
Sol and Anne met on a bus en route to a dance hall in New York. Shortly thereafter, Sol enlisted in the United States Army Air Force during World War II, and he and Anne wrote letters to one another each and every day. When he returned stateside, he realized he never wanted to spend another day without Anne, and they soon married. After working for several years at a coat-making company, Sol recognized he wanted to run his own business.
Sol's best friend’s father had opened the original Colgate Mattress factory in New York at the turn of the last century. Sol partnered with Ben, the founder’s son, to open Colgate Mattress Atlanta Corp but sadly, Ben died soon after and Sol and Anne were on their own in Atlanta. With only a $1,500 loan from Sol’s brother-in-law, Sol and Anne Wolkin founded Colgate Mattress Atlanta Corp. in 1955. Their first factory was in a small, 4,000 square foot building on Ponce de Leon Avenue near the old Atlanta Crackers home baseball stadium.
Anne was the backbone of the business, running the entire office. Colgate expanded several times on Ponce de Leon Avenue before relocating to its present 60,000 square foot location in historic Cabbagetown, Georgia. Colgate was founded on the values of integrity, loyalty, and honesty, and Anne and Sol passed these principles onto their three children, Alan, Joan, and Richard, their five grandchildren, and their four great-grandchildren. Sol and Anne's memory lives on, as do their family and business values.
