Jessica Simpson wants a 'bohemian' nursery for her newborn baby.

The 31-year-old singer and actress gave birth to a daughter named Maxwell Drew last week and apparently she and her sportsman fianc Eric Johnson are planning a 'Gypsy' theme for their child's bedroom.

Rachel Ashwell of Shabby Chic Couture told People: 'Jessica is very pretty and feminine, but she didn't want this to be over-the-top frilly. The words she used were 'gypsy' and 'bohemian,' so we brought in lavenders and mauves with a bit of pink and aqua.'

Apparently the space features vintage butterfly wallpaper and luxe furniture from the designer's boutiques.

She claimed to look in flea markets to find antique pieces that she converted into shelving units and a custom changing table, which she made by screwing a changing table top to a dresser.

She continued about the new parents: They were probably the most un-neurotic people I've ever known. Jessica wanted [the nursery] be cosy and cute, and she was very respectful of Eric, asking, 'Do you like this?' And he was nicely opinionated.'

Rachel added: 'I found being around them very inspiring to think, 'Wow, [this is] a real collaborative vision. I even wrote them a little note saying, 'It's been such a privilege to be part of making your home for you, because I know it's going to be a house of substance.''
