Nursery - Quick Mock up



Nursery Painting - Behr Grass Cloth

So, yesterday I got my sample jar of Mythic Autumn Bloom paint and as it turns out...it just isn't as lime green as I thought it would be. And as I have been staring at the valance I bought to color match (the one that matches the Little Tree bedding)...I realized that our downstairs bathroom color (Behr Grass Cloth) might be perfect for the nursery.

Today I decided to try hanging the valance in the bathroom as a test and here's how it looked. I'm thinking we found a winning paint color...except I'll be having Mythic color match for me since we need a completely non-toxic paint and I don't believe Behr makes one.

















Land, Sea & Air

Kate Durkin's handmade stuffed toys come in a variety of nursery ready colors to fit any decor. I am especially in love with this set - called Land, Sea & Air. When I order mine, I'll probably get a Celery Giraffe, Pale Yellow Owl, and Brown Whale.

Nursery Art

How adorable, wow I love this trio of prints from petitcollage. They colors would be perfect with what we're planning for our nursery and I love the menagerie theme. We don't plan on going theme heavy, but there will be jungle influence here and there in the room. These prints look great framed and matted, but I can't afford $65.00 for each - so I might purchase this Natural Bamboo Frame or this Ikea Ribba Frame to finish the look. If I use the Ikea frame - we're talking $25.00 for the matted print....that's a $40.00 savings!
