So I've just begun trying to figure out how to decorate our baby-girl-to-be's nursery. Which is late for me, considering I had our son's all ready to go by the time I was 5 months pregnant with him. Amazing what a pint-sized toddler wreaking havoc on your day can do to your effectiveness (or the lack thereof, rather)! So I plan to post pictures once the room is complete, but for now I'll just give you a sneak peek at some of the ideas I plan to implement into the room. I plan on doing a pink, black, cream & green theme with paprika accents. That might sound like a bit much to you, but I think it will work well (the inspiration comes from the bedding I will be making from Amy Butler's luscious Lotus line!).
here's a frame I just made this past weekend...love the rhinestone accents & distressing around the edges... a little bird art...can't go without an adorable birdcage... one of the many fabulously fun paper flower balls I plan to hang from the ceiling I'm thinking I'll use this cute egg crate (from {Anthropologie} ~ get one while they last!) for jewelry or hair bows/pins or something of that nature... this chandelier is just for inspiration, as I have yet to find an old chandelier to spray paint and redo myself...anyone for ideas on where to find such a piece besides hitting a lucky garage sale?!
And below is a picture of my son's nursery (it basically looks the same now, except that he has a different dresser and toddler bed instead of the crib ~ that's the beauty of using "non-baby" themes for a nursery, I guess!). You may recognize it, as I had posted an image of it before, since the bedding was put on the Etsy Baby Gift Guide earlier this year!

love your color theme for your baby girl's room - similar to mine - which I finally posted on facebook. I'm anxious to see the paprika and how it fits in. Love Adam's room too - super cute. I still wish you had done bedding back when I ordered some for Levi - next kid though!
SO cute! I love the idea and inspiration and can't wait to see what the finished product will look like!
My daughter's nursery is black/yellow/white and it is so fun.
Your son's nursery is great, too, by the way!
