I hate to play favorites but this is one of my favs. It looks straight out of a decorating magazine! This couple did an amazing job of finding items that made their room ‘pop’ and made it a serene forest oasis for their unborn baby boy.
Child’s Name: We haven’t decided yet.
Child’s Age: Due March 14th, 2010
Location: Fishers, IN
What was your inspiration for the room?
I knew I wanted a contemporary room, and my husband requested animals. I took those two things and kind of went from there. The bedding and the furniture were purchased and I didn’t really have a plan for the rest. It just kind of all came together!
Describe your decorating style.
Simple and contemporary.
Give us all the details about your room! Don’t forget to share with us any money saving tips you might have learned along the way.
Furniture: It’s AP Industries and was purchased from Buy Buy Baby*. I collected coupons and had enough to get 20% off all of my furniture pieces which saved me quite a bit of money.
Wall Decals: Purchased from Etsy and were suprisinly easier to apply than I thought they would be. The white trees on the green wall are my favorite!
Bird mobile: It’s the Peep Wall-Mounted Mobile From Boon.
Solar System Mobile and Rug: Both are from Pottery Barn Kids.
Favorite Items.
The clock with the picture of the smiling dog is my favorite item in the room. My dog (and best friend), Baylee, passed away as we were working on the nursery. I love being able to see him smiling every time I walk in. I also have his foot prints in paint on the wall. He will always be with us.
* Did you know that you can use your Bed Bath & Beyond coupons at Buy Buy Baby?! Yup. You can. I called to verify. As long as the coupon hasn’t expired, you can use it.
