We wanted to make our son's first place in this world vibrant and unique (just like him). With the use of alot of pieces we already had, a special feature wall and a few extra touches, the end result was a warm and modern niche where he can grow from baby to boy.
Thanks, Megan!

wow. that's beautiful. I would love to hear how you did that. The feautire wall is beautiful
I love your tables!
What brand of crib do you have? I love it!
I think that's the ikea gulliver.
The Poang chair is a great choice for nursing. Nice job, Mom!
Beautifull I like the old wall...the colour combination in the room is fantastic
Oh, I love the mobile in your pictures. Where did you get it or how did you make it.
Nice to the natural colored gulliver in a nursery setting. We love ours.
Love the mural.
Thanks for all the compliments on the nursery!
Mobile- I made the mobile using a crochet ring for the top, and covered that in ribbon. The letters and shapes were untreated wood that I found at my local Michaels. I painted them in correlating colors and covered one side of each with different printed cardstocks. Then I drilled tiny holes into the tops and attached them to the ring using thin thread.
Crib- It is indeed the Ikea Gulliver. We love it and can't beat the price.
Tables- the blue table holding the books was handmade by my husband. We love the metal legs and feet of the table, which he fabricated himself out of industrial products from the hardware store.
The changing table is an Ikea dresser we've had sitting unused for years. And the white locker is also Ikea. Not the most original furniture, but it absolutely fit the bill for the look we wanted.
Feature wall- We saw this treatment of unfinished, imperfect circles in a home design/decor magazine used in a living room but when we decided on the colors for the nursery we thought it would look kind of playful and modern in a nursery, so we tried it. We used a projector to project the circle design onto the wall and just freehand traced the circles and painted them.
How did you do the artwork with his name? Or did you have it made? I love it! Such a cute room!!!
I know exactly what article you used for inspiration! I've actually had the exact same one tucked away for 2 years now planning to use it in my own son's room one day! Bravo on a perfect implementation of it! :)
Hi, I love the blue table that you guys made. I'd love to try something similar. Would you be willing to share the dimensions of the box portion and the leg height? I love the look of the proportions of table versus leg height.
I also love the artwork- super creative! where did you buy the kandinsky baby bumper?
