Nursery Ideas

While we are awaiting the birth of our third child any day now I thought I would share a few nursery ideas. When you think of paint, think outside the solid wall color….think stripes, plaid, argyle or dots! Bring in unexpected pieces to create a room you will most likely be spending a lot of time in.

I love the paint in this room! Great for larger rooms with great light. Our nursery is not large so we have incorporated one argyle strip and I will post those photos soon.

And for your girl….

Pink and green argyle nursery

OK….if this is too much for your room. Try just a small bit like this one:

I love this barn door! A sophisticated nursery for a little cowboy or girl. Love the neutral tones with the pop of my favorite color…orange.

For those afraid of color….skip the next one! This very bright room is very fun during non nap times….not sure I could sleep in there though. But I must give credit to the bold idea and great composition.

Not afraid of color!

How about a more soothing monochromatic scheme. Random letters or your child’s name would be super fun in this nursery. Keep the decor simple and let the letters shine. Speaking of….try doing them not only in different shades of blue, but also different paint finishes such as high gloss.

And how about stripes….these are large neutral stripes that really allow the wall decals to pop. But so much better than a solid colored wall.

And lastly…how about dots?

So have some fun. Be creative. I’ll let you know how ours turns out soon!
