  We are doing a Noah's Ark theme.  We had this theme picked out before we even thought about TTC. This is a picture of the bedding.  I would love to do the walls the same way but I don't know if I can convince DH to do it.

  Hello!  I can't believe how far along all of us Aug mammas are now!

  QOTD: We're not going to bother painting since we're just renting the house that we're in right now, but everything in there is done up with winnie the pooh (in greens and yellows).  I'm sewing curtains right now for the room, we have our bedding set and such and starting to put up some decorations.  I kinda wish we were painting, but oh well, I think it'll still look cute.

  Hi, everyone! If you'd like to update your chart, we are team pink! QOTD: I am an interior designer by trade, so this is a really hard decision for me! I can help all of my friends put together something beautiful, but for myself...its a completely different story! Hopefully something strikes me soon...... I hope everyone has a great week!

  QOTD:  I really only have a color theme, which is pale blue and orange.  The actual room is just sitting there as a guest room, it's nowhere close to being a nursery, all of our baby furniture is in the basement or in storage.

  I did purchase paint today, and some orange storage bins from Land of Nod because they had free shipping, but that's it.

  We are doing a baby farm animal theme.  In fact I am going to ask DH's grandpa to make us a barn shaped bookshelf that I can use for storage with little baskets for now and then LO can use for toys etc later.  Here is our bedding

  Well, we have done no nursery planning other than to agree to paint the walls some neutral color such as taupe.  Or, I should say, "Have DH paint..."  I'm thinking of putting some sort of vinyl on the walls (maybe a tree?) as it's easily removable and I'm a lazy painter.  Past that, we have figured out nothing.  We will need to replace the blinds and curtains in that room, but haven't really discussed what to put in their place.

  We have decided to paint the nursery walls a light yellow color and are going with a safari theme.  Here's a pic of the bedding.  I would love to do a tree or something on the wall like in the room pictured, but we'll see how that goes!  We have not started anything yet though!

  So far we have painted the nursery a light pink color and we ordered our nursery furniture in a cherry wood color. We fell in love with the bedding set from Pottery Barn Kids in the picture below. I also found a beautiful wall decal on Etsy it is a brown tree with green leaves. Our color scheme is pink, sage green and brown. I can't wait for the whole room to come together.

  Luckily we painted our whole house a coffe au lait color, so our Team Green decor works well with it.  We ordered this bedding:
