so if we have a boy I'm going for an old world nautical theme. By that I mean less cutesy whales and more ropes, vintage globes, and sunken ships. Accent colots being red navy brown and grey. I didn't pick out a standard bedding for the crib and will have a burlap crib skirt with navy trim. My big issue right now is wall color! I thought I wanted to do sort of a tea stained color - in the brown or yellow families. I'm open to other colors but I'd love some suggestions!
Baby 2.0!

ETA... look on Pinterest. It's a total time sink, but there's tons of inspiration on there!
The first pic is someone from my other BMB (cut out baby's name for privacy) but it gives you an idea. I love the navy without being TOO dark.
The second photo is the anchor stencil that could be done in a a taupe, grey or navy (really whatever color) and would still add a pop!

Another nice option for a feature wall is to alternate stripes of matte and high gloss paint. It's subtle, I think, but still nautical?

The map accent wall is a fantastic idea. If you're up for blues, a navy accent wall with the others painted grey would be nice too!
Beautiful theme though. Make sure you post Some pictures as you make progress. We would love to see it
(Photo for example) of course I will NOT be paying $45 for something I can diy!
