It’s the funnest nursery for a boy I have seen in a while. It gives a clean and contemporary edge to the classic safari nursery theme and I LIKE IT.

The crib pictured above is the Oeuf Crib in Walnut Stain and costs around $920! But you can get the Modern BabyLetto Modo 3-in-1 Two-Tone Baby Crib by DaVinci for $379.00.

The Oeuf Three Drawer Chest in Walnut (not pictured) will set you back $895 but you can save almost have of that by opting to purchase the Modern BabyLetto Mercer Two-Tone 3 Drawer Chest/Changer by DaVinci for $438.98.

The beautiful modern storage unit to the right is also from Oeuf. It’s called Mini Library and it retails for $650. I have looked EVERYWHERE for an affordable piece that resembled this storage unit. No luck. However, you could choose to purchase the Torsby Sideboard from Ikea for $299. You might even want to consider removing one of the sliding doors in order to get a look that is closer to Oeuf’s Mini Library.

The Shaggy Raggy Lime Rug featured in the picture is 2’8″x 4’8″ and costs approximately $137. Consider getting a smaller sized rug or even a bath rug. No, I’m not crazy. I’m actually a genius! I have a bath mat as the entrance rug to my daughter’s bedroom. It was much cheap than any rug I could have purchased and it was exactly what I was looking for. As an alternative to the Shaggy Raggy Lime Rug, get the All That Jazz Bath Rug in Lime (21″ x 34″) that costs just $24.99.

The Modern Safari Baby Bedding set for $658 is the bedding featured in the image above. I think that is just insane! I found almost an identical crib set at almost half the cost. It’s the Modern Zoo Crib Bedding by Carousel Designs and you can purchase a 4-piece set for $316.

The total cost of decorating your nursery with all of the items from the image on the top would be $3,260. But with a little creativity and a little internet research, we have just duplicated the look of this contemporary safari themed nursery for $1,457.97!
