nursery inspiration

ideas for our nursery/ guest room/ room we will be in when baby gets here:

i  have mentioned this before here, but i love bright colors.  i love the colors on this here blog, if i do say so myself....hence me choosing them for the baby blog.  i love aqua, turquoise, robins egg, and seafoam.  i love bright sunshine yellow and tangerine orange.  i like white.  oh and i love birds and owls and squirrels. 
 

so.  ideas.  i want blue walls.  prob will be seafoam or a light aqua.  or white walls?  i want a white crib.  with either all white bedding, or some type of patterned yellow or orange.  

i have a changing table that is a honey colored wood.  i am 
going to sand it down and paint it. not sure what color yet.  white?  yellow?  

i have a light maple rocking chair.  it will need a fun pillow.

i want fun art.  like cute baby animal stuff mixed with pop culture stuff.  

i feel like i have all these puzzle pieces in front of me and i need to figure out the right combo to make them all fit.  i know it is there.  i feel inspired and excited. 
 

ok...now for the nurseries i love that get me all hyper to spend lots of money and get creative. all of these can be found here.  Enjoy!!

  3. Ah yes, the nursery...I am working on my masterpiece right now, too... :)

    I like the one above with the seafoamy/celeste green walls and the yellow. That's purty.

    I'm leaning towards owls. Owls and purple. I have a white crib and dresser, so I think I may do at least one bright purple wall - maybe with this on it http://www.wallcandyarts.com/item/nightly_news/321/c54

  4. Very cool nurseries! I love them. They are so much cuter than the standard usual ones. I really like the yellow crib! and it would go so well with a bright turquoise wall:). How exciting to plan all this!

    I was thinking of you when I was reading this Daddy blog:

    This link is an entry where he is talking about his wife setting up a green eco-friendly daycare/preschool with cloth diapers and organic food and all! They live in Seattle, so I thought about you and all your diapers:).

  5. Oooh Dana I love those designs. I esspecially love the blue and yellow one.

    Ok so I checked out that site with the prints on wood and they are so cute. I might have to get them eventually. I think I'm going to bookmark the site. The blocks are cute too but a bit much for baby room art at $120.00! I know I know they're originals...but geez
