I kept going back inside this room and thinking…I can’t post pictures yet, I need to add stuff! We are finally passed the adding stage! Your room is ready for you, Baby!
What I love most about the room is what we paid to do it! All of the furniture was refurbished from stuff we were given or already had with a good coat of paint! The only 2 major expenses from us were the curtain fabric, paint, and the animal heads.
- The paint on the walls: Plain white and Owl grey (from benjamin moore) were used for our stripes. (I just measured 13 inch stripes and taped them with frog paint)
- The mint paint used for the crib, toy chest, and door painting is called Sea Glass from Martha Stewart.
- The yellow paint for the dresser and Dr. Seuss painting was a mixed bag of nuts. I basically found a swatch with 3 different shades of yellow and didn’t really like them. So I started to mix them together in certain variations to get what I wanted. I did the top drawer and base the lightest yellow, then one shade darker for each drawer.
- The animal heads are form Z galleria.
- The curtain fabric is called corn yellow from Hancock’s or JoAnn’s fabrics (I can’t remember which one!)
- My mother in law made the curtains.
- My mother made the cushions for our glider, the pillow, and one of the crib blankets.
- I made the stencil paintings.
- I also made the mobile from paint chips! It cost me about 6$ total to make. 🙂 There are lots of DIY tutorials on how to make them on your own.
I’m sure I am leaving out stuff, but if you want to know about something I didn’t list, send me a comment and I will tell you where it came from! 🙂
I hope you like it!

Super cute! Love the colors! We went with yellows and blues. They are so cheery.
Love it! We’re going with green and grey 🙂
I love it! I’m putting the finishing touches on a grey and yellow nursery right now. Lots of chevron, too. I’m waiting on a mobile and crib skirt before I consider this project a wrap!

I love it! Our poor boy still doesn’t have a proper room 😦 Not that he minds, he only plays in his and sleeps with us.
I do have a question though; where did the little octopus come from?
LOVE it. submit it to Project Nursery 🙂
Um, WOW. I love it all. You did an amazing job!! I especially love the gradient colors on the dresser, the animal heads and the mint green. You should enter this into a contest or something. Very cool.
