The Too Hot to Handle alum, 29, and her fiancé spoke with PEOPLE about designing their twins' nursery, sharing exclusive photos from their collaboration with Babyletto as they got the space ready for their babies' arrival.
"Our goal was to create a cozy, unique space for the whole family to enjoy. We wanted it to feel like a magical wonderland for the babies to grow in, while still being a practical place with everything we need," Farago tells PEOPLE of designing the space.

When it came to the inspiration for the nursery, Farago says the couple pulled from nature to create the perfect bedroom for their little ones, whom the couple welcomed earlier this week.
"We were inspired by our love of everything earthy and whimsical, and wanted to steer away from the light and modern look of the rest of the house to make the nursery feel like a cozy woodland escape," she says. "We loved the idea of a moody, bold forest aesthetic, while still having touches of creams and whites to keep the space feeling fresh and open."
As for things they knew had to be in the space, Sullivan explains that there were several details the couple wanted to make sure they got right.
"We knew we wanted a mural and spent months deciding on the perfect one, even considering details like the distant castle in the background and the foliage," he says. "From the beginning, we also knew we wanted to incorporate vintage pieces, like the chandelier and picture frames for the gallery wall of family photos."
"Francesca focused a lot on storage and practicality, while ensuring we didn't compromise aesthetics. It was important that the nursery felt like a room for two, and we tried to achieve a perfect balance of femininity and masculinity — which we feel was a success!"
After they teamed up with Babyletto, Farago and Sullivan picked out a few items that they felt were an organic fit to the space.
"When it came to choosing furniture, we were instantly drawn to Babyletto's Bondi Crib in this rich crimson color, and the gorgeous cane detailing on the sides that further gives that timeless organic look," they say.
"We also went with the Kiwi Recliner in the textured Teddy Loop fabric that is just as comfy as it is beautiful!”
In March, the couple announced that Farago was pregnant. They shared the happy news via a joint Instagram post, with Farago writing in the caption, "We wanted to take this special day to celebrate this amazing milestone with all of you. We’ve brought you with us through the loss, so we couldn’t wait to bring you along for the win."
"I am still pretty newly pregnant, and there’s so much more to come, but we are so excited to be growing our family with Arlo as the coolest older sibling!" she continued.
"AHH IM PREGNANT!😭💫", she added.
Sullivan commented on the post: "I finally got her pregnant! So excited to be a dad to more world changers! 👶🏻👶🏻." In addition to their twins, Sullivan is also a parent to 16-year-old child Arlo.
