Our Native American Themed Nursery

Just a few weeks into my pregnancy, I had a pretty good idea of how I wanted the nursery to turn out. With Cole we were renting, and with such little space I just felt like I couldn't do a whole lot with the room, so I didn't. But now with our own space and more room to work with, it made it just that much more exciting!

I like giving myself a little bit of a challenge, so with a very small budget to work with, I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Almost everything in the nursery was a DIY project, craft, or deeply discounted sale item. There are a couple walls that I still would like to adorn with some sort of art, but I'm just waiting for just the right thing. I think the minimalism will do for now though.

So, without further ado, I give you our nursery!

amazing nursery - I LOVE it! Would you mind sharing your paint color - that is the perfect gray!

Erica said...

Love this gray too! I hope you don't mind sharing the name...I have the perfect space for it!

Heather said...

I don't mind sharing at all! It was just extra paint I borrowed from a friend...behr's stonington gray. You can find it at home depot.

Dacia said...

Love the detail on that dresser, what a great find! Also, I love those painted antlers, I did the same thing a while ago in pretty much the same color scheme!
