I’m back today with an update on and inspiration for the nursery! We’ve had some major changes in this room in the last few months. We pulled up the old hardwood floors, installed carpet, replaced old baseboards and trim, installed a new window and painted the walls a creamy, neutral white called Frost by Behr. We were originally planning on painting this room a soft minty green but made a swap at the last minute. We’ve gotten some of the other big to-do’s taken care of too – purchased the dresser and changing table, put together the crib, ordered blackout shades and installed a closet organizer. It’s pretty close to being done! I can’t wait to show you the finished product in a month or so.
As far as decor, I love a mix of white, wood, grey and blue as you can see in these photos. I knew that would be the base for the room as well as a lot of natural materials in their raw state (unfinished wood shelving and handwoven baskets). I wanted the room to flow and match the rest of the house which was my main goal. From there, I searched for mint green/teal accents to make the room more gender neutral. I wanted items that would work with future babies too, regardless of their sex. We also spent a lot of time debating the whole rocker verse glider thing. Hey moms, what’s your preference?
For months I’ve been on the lookout for beautiful prints that can add some bright pops of color and inspiration to our little one’s nursery. I’m sticking with a primarily light and white palette in the room but I want to bring in some pops of color and a bit of boho with the artwork and accessories. Here are a few of my favorites – I really can’t stop going back to Olivia Raufman’s Goodnight World print and Britt Bass’ Honey Calcite print! I may need to paint a few things as well!
