Beautiful…. looks professionally done.

Love love the room! So neat for a boy. I am curious as to how you came up with his name? I listen to a band name Copeland, does it have anything to do with them? :) His name is very unique, I love it.
Lisa Ratzlaff
The room is inviting, a unique combination of old and new. Gives a feeling that Copeland is surrounded by a type of love that is passed from generation to generation, just like the family items featured in the room. Lucky Copeland–I get the feeling he has amazing parents…and amazing grandparents too!

Great job! I love the color and I love that this is a room that the baby can grow into without having to change too much.

This is one of the best nurseries I have seen on Project Nursery in a long time! I absolutely love it! It is so creative and perfect for a little boy. I love the chalkboard paint behind the crib, and the frames on it are too cute! We live in an apartment, and can’t paint, but if we could I totally would have done something similar. There isn’t one thing I don’t like. Great job!

Katie Gonzalez,
Hi Katie,
Yes, actually. My husband and I are both musicians, and we love the band “Copeland”. We’d also heard it as a name for a boy years ago, and my husband really liked it. Thank you!
apenrose
Thank you for your kind comments! We loved putting his room together! It was sort of like an art project for me, so I appreciate the great feedback!
Jaime
I love this room!!!! Can you tell me about the rug? I’ve been looking for a chevron rug for a while.
Ashley@marriedlane
Jaime,
I’m also interested In the rug – love the chevron!
Tiffany
I love the rug too! I ordered a similar one from Urban Outfitters- but it was a rougher material (semi-jute I think?), and had a funky smell! Would love to know where this is from?
apenrose
Jaime, Ashley, Tiffany:
I ordered the rug here: http://www.wayfair.com/nuLOOM-Kinder-Chevron-Ivory-Contemporary-Rug-OWCHV01-NLO1516.html
The only complaint I have with it is that it is not as soft as I would like. The positive thing about that, though, is that it is hardy. He can play all over it and it doesn’t show any wear. A softer rug might show wear faster.
Jessica
Love this! Would you mind telling me where the balls are from over the crib? Also, my husband is a DJ and I would love to replicate that picture with the headphones. What camera did you use? Is it just black and white? Thanks!
Carol
Love the chalkboard wall :) Also love the idea of mixing new with vintage…I had the same idea :) Nicely done, great colors!!
Ashley
Love the room! I just painted my son’s room a similair color (though I think I like this one more) and built the book shelf ledges using ana-white.com’s $10 ledges tutorial

Jessica,
Hi Jessica!
I made the yarn balls using this tutorial: http://ruffledblog.com/diy-string-wedding-chandelier/
And the picture was just a poster my husband had that we framed – it’s not a picture of my little boy, although I will probably re-create it with him as the subject at some point!

Where’s the fabric from for the bumper? Is it a linen? I think it looks perfect!
Erin Austin
How did you hang the yarn/string balls? Did you use yarn or a kind of string?

I’ve been looking for THE perfect banner/garland for my baby boy’s room. Does your friend do any custom orders?

I have done the same. It is also more tan and black rather than black and white.
Michaela Mea
Where can I buy the chevron area rug?
Kelli
Great work on the nursery. It still working perfectly for today, almost 10 years later. I’m unexpectedly getting to do nursery for our first grandchild, due any minute. at our home. We are about 7 hours apart and my niece thought since we have the room and they will be here often to see granddad it would be better to setup up my husband’s crib, that both our boys used too at their grandparents house, than the pac and play. Got momma and daddy’s approval and I’m off to the races.
How is Copeland’s doing today? I bet he loves the chalkboard wall.
