Color Inspiration: Before I even knew the sexes of our twins, I was completely in love with the idea of an orange nursery. To be honest, I had a few reservations about the color at first. I knew exactly what color I wanted, but I was afraid that it would end up too pale or too bright once it went on the wall. In the end, after pouring over paint chips, I completely fell in love with this color and, as soon as it was on the wall, it served as the inspiration for the rest of the room.
Color Inspiration continued: Because I also have two-year-old twin girls, I decorated another little girl nursery fairly recently. That one was done in pastels. This time, in addition to the bolder orange walls, I wanted to create a feminine but bold mix of modern and traditional elements to create a fun yet soothing space.
Tip for Using Color: Because I chose a bold color palette, I wanted to make sure that the room didn't end up too overpowering. It is, after all, still a nursery. I think that the bold color palette worked as well as it did because I also used a lot of white furniture and accents, which broke up the bright color scheme.
Colors Used: The primary colors in the room are a sherbet orange, hot pink, and olive green.
Thanks for your colorful entry Jody and good luck!

Two sets of twin girls? Bless your heart! Cute room - glad you didn't talk yourself out of the orange.
Two sets of twins! Best of luck. I have an old friend who also has two sets of twin and she is a terrific mom.
I love the orange! It looks fantastic!
I love this room! What did you use for your daughters' names? Decals? That font is awesome!
I love this color! What brand of paint is it?
I used wall decals for the names from Etsy. Actually, much of our decor came from Etsy. I'm not crafty myself so thank goodness for others who are!
I actually have three sets of twins and one singleton. I think we're done now, though!
The paint is Vaslpar zero VOC but color matched to an Olympic color. I get asked the shade a lot but I'm afraid that I looked at so many paint chips that I can't recall the color anymore.
I love this nursery and hope that I can convince DH if we have another baby to do orange. It is beautiful
Love this room, it's gorgeous!
Beautiful room!
love it, Jody!
gorgeous!
It is just beautiful!
just lovely, my favourite af all
Beautiful room :)
I love the wall decals - I'm not always a fan, but yours have stolen my heart!
This is my favorite room; it is truly big color! I had wanted to do my daughter's big girl room in orange, but was talked out of it. Will defiantly be showing this to my husband!
I love the pendant light! Do you remember where it's from?
The room is beautiful, but I just keep seeing all of the cords above the cribs. As a good friend's child died of a cord accident while in her crib (video monitor cord), I am very sensitive to this. Cords near the crib should be no longer than seven inches. The mobile cords look much longer, and if something were to happen where one of them fell, it could be disasterous. Also, if you plan to keep the crib under the window, you should probably switch to cordless blinds. They are mobile so quickly and things can happen before you even know it (my friend's baby had never stood up by herself prior to the accident, and she was found within a couple minutes and was actualy even able to be resuscitated, but it was still too late). Sorry to be such a downer; the room really is beautiful.
Gorgeous nursery. LOVE it.
Love the orange wall color, the pendant light, and the bookcase on the wall! Can I ask where you found the bookcase? Great job!
The bookcase is from PBK and the pendant lamp is from Design Public.
Nicely done! Very lucky girls!
I second the request for the light pendant source. It's beautiful!
I'm most impressed by the fact that you are surviving two sets of twins. That's amazing! Beautiful room! Someone may have asked this already, but can you tell me where the light fixture came from? Thx!
lackadaisi, where do you see a cord hanging over that crib? i doubt a baby can get a hold of those mobiles.
The thing that really caught my eye was the window cord above the crib to the left. If secured very well, the mobiles maybe fine, but I wouldn't risk it. I would also double-check the length of the bumper cords to make sure that they aren't over 7 inches. The window cord, however, is the thing that really caught my attention. Even if the plan is to keep it wrapped around a holder, a babysitter or visitor could inadvertantly open the shade all the way and then it would be completely reachable.
LOVE THIS! Love the color, the bedding, the rug, the pendant, the decals (and I kinda hate decals)! And you have 7 kids? I bow to you, Madam!
I love this room. Its so bright and fun but without being overwhelming. Where is the rug from? I have been looking for a striped rug in fun colors.
The rug is from Land of Nod :)
Gorgeous!
Was that 2 sets of twins or 3? Wow, I'm guessing you must have all the tips and with twins on the way myself I am trying to figure out some of what I need to know now!! Without getting too much off topic re this nursery room post I'm wondering your advice on sleeping twins when you first bring them home? I was going to use moses baskets to start with but now think I will just put them both in the one crib - but not sure whether to have the crib in our room or their own from the start... a friend of twins said to me that they can be noisy sleepers which is why they put their twins in the nursery right from the start so they could get better sleep themselves.... do you have any advice or tips on this subject? (I see you have 2 cribs already set up in their own room!!)
Advice welcome :)
Beautiful! I love the youthful, bold colors, and the accessories are perfect.
Love the bird theme :)
Gorgeous nursery! Where are the crib and bedding from?
love your creativity, but wouldn't softer colors be more calming for the babies? it seems energetically those bold colors would stir up their energy which would make things harder on you...
