Re: What's everyones nursery theme/colors?

  • Team green - walls are blueish green.  White curtains.  Not doing crib bedding (b/c of sids) other than a sheet.  Not really decorating the nursery b/c the baby will only be in that room for a year or two (max) before we move him/her upstairs into another room.

  • Team Green: We are going with tan walls, and chocolate, orange, deep yellow and turquoise blue w/ some green and ivory. It sounds like a lot of different colors but it looks awesome together!

  • Just curious what crib bedding and sids have in common? I have never heard this and am now wondering. Sorry for hijacking this post with a different question!

    Bumpers and the comforters can suffocate infants.

  • Black and white, green, aqua, yellow...and maybe more.  I love the concept of this nursery: https://www.stellaandhenry.com/2011/02/nursery-dark-walls-colorful-accessories.html, but want to tweak the colors.  Our decorations are going to center on travel - we have a ton of brightly colored stuff we've collected in our travels in India, Africa and Asia that will be mixed in there, and I've found a cool classic map that I'm going to frame.

    If anyone is still looking for color inspiration, this site is fantastic if you want something unique and different - every palette you could possibly think of: www.design-seeds.com.

    Can't wait to see photos!

  • Black & white w/ some light pink accessories. 

    In order to match the rest of our place we're sticking with an "ultra modern" clean look, and figure when our daughter is old enough to decide what she likes then we'll go themed.

  • Here's the paint.  The ceiling fan and the chair rail in between the stripes and the red are both black.

    This is DS1's bedding.  We'll be doing something complimentary for DS2 since they will share a room for now.

  • We're having a boy- Ollie! We already have light gray walls and we plan on doing yellows and blues, with some pops of other colors.

    This is our crib:

    and I'm trying to decide between either this bedding set: 

    image 

    or something like this: 

    image 

    We have some prints already that my DH did and we plan on getting a modern mobile- something Alexander Calder inspired. Then using vintage pieces throughout the rest of the room!

  • We're having a boy, and I'm thinking the following:

    Blue-gray walls (Likely Benjamin Moore Silver Marlin)

    White or two-toned (white and dark wood) crib with white dresser/changer combo.

    Probably a brown glider similar to this.

    Artwork similar to this.

    Then, lots of orange, green, brown and blue details around the room (specifics not quite nailed down yet)

    We'll be adding chair rails to the room, as well.

    This seems kind of gender-neutral, but I think it'll be adorable :)

  • We're doing light blue, navy blue, red and white plaid.  We'll have nautical accents around the room.  It's this collection, but minus the turtles.  Of course, the quilt won't be in there but I think we're going to display it either on the wall or the chair.  Using a different bumper as well but the crib skirt is plaid as well.

  • If boy we will continue with this theme.  
    If girl we will keep with animals and just add girly touches (owls and bunnies) until we move in 2 more years.

  • We are team green so we are doing pale green walls with white base boards.  Peter Rabbit themed bedding from PBK and all white baby furniture.  I want to  use white curtains with green/white gingham tie backs (to match the gingham in the Peter Rabbit)  I will accent blue or pink when our LO is born.

    Thank you!  We were going to go a totally different direction and when I got the bedding, I was disappointed with the quality.  DH and I saw this online at the PBK website and we both instantly loved it.  We live 3 minutes from a store and when we called, they had it in stock.  I also had a stash of old gift cards from my wedding with my ex-DH (from 2001).  Indifferent  All in all, we made out very well cost-wise.  Big Smile

  • This is pretty much what we're going with too!  The walls are painted grey, and we will be using yellows, teals and pinks as accent colors.  No real theme though!  Our crib is eerily similar and I too have been looking for a Calder style mobile! hahahaha!!!  I love bedding set #2 btw!!!

  • Team Blue:  We're doing the nursery based on my favorite book, The Giving Tree, by Shel Silverstein.  We are painting the walls a VERY light green and having an artist come to paint a scene from the book on the wall.  The tree will hang a bit over the crib.  Over the dresser, we are painting the lines from the book, "Once there was a tree... and she loved a little boy".  

     

    All of the furniture is a dark brown color.  I'm really excited and hope it turns out as good as I see it in my head! 

     

    DH gave me a copy of that book as one of my wedding gifts.  It means a lot to us.  :)

  • Everyone has such CUTE ideas for their rooms! 

     

    Am I the only one who hasn't figured out what the heck I'm going to do yet?! hah My husband will be home from his deployment in May and I'll probably figure out more then, but I kind of feel like I'm falling behind after seeing what everyone has posted! lol

  • We are also team green. We are doing a teddy bear picnic theme with red gingham as the main color scheme. Walls will be green and blue with white details and a picnic mural on one wall.

  • We're team green, walls will be blue and "theme" will be music.  We're doing Beatles and Neil Young lyrics as art on the walls, and using a really cool fabric called "headphones" for curtains and crib skirt.  We had a white electric guitar as our "guest book" at our wedding (people signed the actual guitar with a sharpie), and we're planning to hang that in the baby's room too.  I just bought some paint samples today.  Excited to get it all going!

  • All I know is we're using this bedding from SkipHop:

    I want to do wall decals to go with it - but I don't know what color I'm going to do in the room yet.

  • It's between these two:

    1) Purple and soft green color palette with a butterfly/firefly theme.

    2) Pink and brown color palette with a polka-dot theme.

    I so so so love this!

  • We have nice warm medium brown walls, and the nursery decor is the same depending on a boy or girl, but the colors are different. it's dots and stripes, and for a boy it will be brown, light blue/aqua, a darker blue/aqua, and white, and for a girl it would be the brown and white and a light pink and a darker pink. I LOVE it:) it goes really well with our paint color so we don't have to paint:)

  • We are reworking DD's current nursery, which is shown in the photos below. We are bringing in a full  size bed in the room (have to have a nursery/guest bedroom combo since DD is moving into our current guest bedroom.) The bed will have a white quilt/shams with some accent pillows that match the crib edding.

     I also plan on painting a new banner in a more boyish design and adding a few more boyish accessories, but that is it.
