Nursery Inspiration

You must be sick of my pregnancy related posts by now! Not long to go my pretties and then the posts will be about being exhausted, stretch marks, poo on the walls and what not. Get ready.

Here are some nurseries that I have saved along the way, most being from before I was even up the duff, so I don’t have their sources sorry.

I love this nursery but I cannot see it as being my own, there is a lot going on with the flower pom pom things. That armoire is to die for.

My mum already got me an antique brentwood rocking chair which I will have sanded and repainted, with cushions. 

I love the walls, carpet and couch in here. 

Cute as cute. I feel like DIY'ing one of these just for the sake of it. 

This buffet thing is amazing. 

I remember reading that it was restored and the duck egg blue paint used to bring it to life. This, I can see me as having but we have no room for such a thing, so maybe in our next house!

I get dizzy thinking about watching this fan whilst turned on.

P.S - I never knew that Smit was an actual first name. Oh the knowledge that I am lacking.

I think a chest is crucial for a room or living room. Growing up, I had a white wicker one which matched my bed head and bed side table and they just fit so much in there, an easy way to make a room clean in an instant if you ask me, ha.

And then I start to think, do I just go completely neutral.

I cannot fault this nursery at all.

The mirror in the corner is a great way to make this room look bigger, you can tell it is in an apartment building. I think that by putting the small book shelf where they have is quite clever also but I am going to utilise the walls and have floating shelves put in. 

This nursery is fresh to death. Look at all that natural light too! 

So crisp. I just sigh looking at it. 

I think neutral is the way for me but with a touch of pale pink. I'm not really into hot pink decor.

Our nursery is not as big as these rooms, it is a standard 3 x 3 room but since we are putting the day bed in there a lot of space is eaten up. 

I think I will put nice mirrors on the wardrobe doors so that the rooms seems a little bigger.

We thought we would just do white, yellow and grey (or yellow white and purple for LA Lakers according to The Husband) but now I am over that and plus,  knowing that it is a girl gives me more options.

Dead over this lamp shade.

Wreaths make me happy. 

I think it is because it reminds me of the Christmas wreath that my mum always hung on our front door, which was a big double white door.

Oh! The serenity of it all. 

I like the Moroccan pouffes a lot but they seem expensive. $200 odd just for decoration but they are cute.

Now this is a moses basket! I remember reading on the post about this that it belonged to the father of the baby, it looks perfect. 

I think this blog post has convinced me to go rather neutral even though this is what I was going to do all along.

I seem to have a thing for these iron cribs also.

The Giraffe head on the wall has me thinking two things:

1. Cute as hell

2. Creepy as hell

Oh, little girls clothes are beautiful. 

I have already picked out the art work, cushions and what not but am not going to share them with you until they are in the actual nursery - I need to leave some things as a surprise. Be grateful you didn't get a shot of my pregnancy test, I am known to over share!! 

What sort of nursery do you like?
