Evan's Eclectic Modern Nursery
Name: Evan (newborn)
Location: Columbus, Ohio
After months of scheming, planning, and DIYing, we finally finished the nursery for our baby boy! We put together this eclectic vintage modern room on a budget coming in under $700 total for everything.
Saving money with lots of thrifted and reused items and handmade projects, we were able to splurge on a few bold pieces like the striped rug that really makes this room pop! Bright and playful fabrics used for pillows, frames, and even to cover a lampshade bring life to this little boy's adventurous room!
