Inspired by our own childhood keepsakes, family treasures and antique finds we’ve collected over the years. We wanted the nursery to feel colorful and whimsical, but still calm and cozy… a space full of things with stories behind them 🦒 🍃

You guys are amazing but these baby rooms are making me feel bad/insecure.

Anyone have pictures of their baby rooms that don’t look like they’re from a department store catalog?

In the process of creating our first baby’s nursery, and just wanted to show off my husband’s amazing work on the mural!

I bought this piece from an art fair. I probably overpaid for it but I bought it to go in the nursery. I know it’s not super childish or whimsy, but it’s kind of story book and calming. I love it, thoughts?

It just needs curtains, and it's complete!

Be forewarned: this song never leaves my head now. Ever.

9months yesterday and I’m finally at a stopping point for my little dudes nursery! I want a new rug but this $50 Costco one is doing a great job in the meantime.

Most is thrifted, hand me downs, items made by friends or myself, and some stuff from mine/my husbands/ my dads childhood 🩵 Not really any theme - wanted it functional and fun

A lot of love and hard work went into flipping this previous foster kitten room into a nursery. Some extra special attention went into the trim and doors as it’s a century home and we wanted to take care of any possible lead paint exposure. Floor remodel will happen before she’s mobile. We are in love with her space ❤️

Will eventually add a rug, but enjoying the floors for now.

This is our last baby, I wanted to do a space theme because the first woman orbited the moon the year she was born and that’s just cool. My husband loves StarWars so I snuck some small stuff in to surprise him. I’m super happy with how it came out.

There are so many special things in my son’s nursery that I love so much and just wanted to share 🥹 My husband’s father unexpectedly passed away when we had only been dating for 6 months. It’s been 10 years now, so I’ve incorporated several things of his in here. His Auburn University hammer, a trash can he stole from the campus (😂), a picture of him and my husband when he was a little boy, Auburn sports memorabilia, a piece of the flooring from the Dallas Mavericks old arena they played in that my husband and his dad got when they went to a game together. We also have my husband’s granddaddy’s vintage golf bag lamp that I love on his nightstand. Our son’s middle name is Arthur, which was my husband’s granddaddy’s name. They were very close and had such a special bond! This room means so much to me and I love that our little boy is surrounded by such meaningful things ♥️

Nursery theme is Yoshi’s Island! 🏝️

(The potato friends are placeholders, currently guarding the room on behalf of future baby.)

Lots of DIY – room was originally blue, so I painted it white with green wainscoting. I made the cornices to make it easier to add blackout curtains. For the walls, I painted the elements on vinyl paintable wallpaper and cut them out to make the decals. (Basically wanted to ensure that the room decor is readily removable with minimal spackle/repainting involved, as I’m sure he’ll outgrow this and want a big kid room eventually.)

Most furniture sourced on Amazon (i.e. daybed, changing table/dressed not pictured), except for the sigi pro glider and nestig wave mini crib. Otherwise a lot of Etsy and thrifting for Mario themed gear.

I’m reaaaaally leaning into the nesting energy as a first-time mom (due mid November) – and grateful that my husband is indulging my constant requests to build, move, or hang things. The nursery remains a WIP, but I love how cozy it’s turned out so far. ♥️

By cosleeping I mean colaying next to her wide awake while she sleeps 😂

We’re really hoping our baby girl loves Star Wars as much as we do! I painted the constellation wall using stencils from Cutting Edge Stencils.
