I love the lamp that you said is from Target! I would like to buy that for my nursery. Is the lamp shade also from Target, or did you find that somewhere else? Thank you!!
WiseMamaBlog
Thanks! Its called the Threshold Lacquered 2-Bulb, if you need help finding it. My talented mom made a lampshade cover with fabric from Carousel Designs. There are some pretty good how-tos for covering lampshades out there. Good luck!

Love the clean effect of all the whites that make way for the pops of various colors!

Thans, Jillian. I tried to edit when it came to adding color. Although, the room has more color now with toys and games for my babe — fine with me!

Hey I was hoping you could help. What shade of blue from Carousel did you use in the crib skirt? Was it solid aqua or solid turquoise? Your help is appreciated!
WiseMamaBlog
The fabric in the crib skirt is solid aqua. The sheet is aqua snakeskin. I hope that helps!

First- love the room! Second-can you tell me where you got the elephant? Love how floppy it is.

Thanks! I found the elephant puppet at a local store, but it’s available on Amazon bundled with some other products. Search for the Folkmanis Elephant Plush Hand Puppet or follow my link to it at wisemamablog.com/nurserydetail.

I love this nursery . Can you tell me where your husband got the photos of the objects for making the “H” art. Thanks.
WiseMamaBlog
The “H” is made primarily of stock images. My husband’s a graphic designer, so he has access to a lot of that.

I’m considering this crib but was concerned the skirt will be too tightly fitted with the drawer on the bottom. Did you fold the chevron under? Instead of letting it just hang. Was curious it looks great
WiseMamaBlog
When the crib’s at its highest, the crib skirt doesn’t interfere with the drawer. As I’ve lowered the crib, the skirt hangs over the drawer. I just keep things in the drawer that I rarely need, so it doesn’t bother me at all. I hope that helps!

I was just wondering how thick you did the stripes on the wall. Were they the same size thickness?
