First of all I must have a tree on the wall. I’m thinking I will get a tree decal, paint over it and have it be a white silhouette. But I am not sure how crafty I will get! We will have to paint the whole thing white again when we move, but that’s fine. Here are my inspirations:
I’m also feeling a gray blue wall. I would love to have green, but we all remember the disaster of finding a “sage” green for the living room. 6 paint samples later and they all look like either toothpaste or grass or puke. I finally went with “Almond Paste” also known as off-white. I don’t think you can mess up gray/blue.
So then I thought: what about a forest theme.? Please note, that is NOT jungle, NOR farm/zoo animals. These are forest animals that have no discernable sounds. Cows moo, lions roar, monkey’s chitter. But what about a deer? A raccoon or a squirrel? I feel like the room is peaceful already. And the nature vibe totally won josh over. Ideally I would get a transportation theme. But Josh thinks that gasoline is the drink of the devil and cars are Hitlermobiles or something.
Last night I stumbled across a couple of beddings that I like:
Stef,
ReplyDeleteI really like the tree theme. It makes a statement but yet it is simple. I do like the blue/gray color them. However the gray maybe too drab. Babies need and respond to bright or bold stimuli. I like the dark wood baby furniture in constrast with the blue. You know that they sell wall decals that are removable and they are very reasonable. I am excited about decorating the nursery. If you need some advice on colors and such ask the expert ... me! LOL
