Baby Boy Nursery

Here is my son's nursery. I am not sure what to call the style except that while planning it (boys are hard, right?) I kept thinking a "beachy, surfy, California vibe." I have no surfboards or anything about the beach in it but that was my inspiration. I didn't want a theme.

Here is a picture before he was born. So pristine. The crib is Pottery Barn and the bedding is from Land of Nod. It was so hard for me to pick a bedding. I ended up buying a burlap bed skirt from Ballard Design and rigged it into a crib skirt. I was a little obsessed with burlap at that moment but I think it gives it texture.

We painted stripes on the walls. They basically got hidden by the Ikea bookshelves but we needed storage space. The white curtains are also Ikea

Closer look at the bedding.

One of my clients gave me her pink rocking chair but when I found out I was having a boy I had a slip cover made. I found this brown matelase(sp?) for it at Joanns on clearance for like $6 a yard!

Book shelf filled with gifts, books and blankets. The picture is from Pier 1

I found this piece at TJMaxx before I was pregnant. Just waiting for the perfect place to hang it.

Here is his changing table. The wall color is the only thing I am "so-so" about. I think it is Behr Straw Basket. It is not a bad color but it looks more yellow than I wanted. It is hard to make decisions when you are pregnant!

And here is the little "destroyer." The crib has never looked the same!
