My husband and I both love things with a modern look and a tiny twist of vintage. When I was pregnant, we had no idea what we wanted to do for the nursery, the only thing we knew for sure was that we didn’t want to go the “traditional baby blue” route. We knew we both loved grey as a neutral and then we ended up adding a few pops of tangerine for fun!

I love your nursery! Thanks for all of the sources info. The BM paint color is just what I am looking for and the IKEA shelves are a great solution! Very nice!!
Gracie
Just perfect! That is a pretty shade of Gray. I don’t like the darker gray’s that I have been seeing in nurseries….because… they look gloomy. This is so bright and cheery and I love the pop of orange.

Thank you, Ashley! :) Oh man, we had about 25-30 grey paint samples on our wall at one point. Grey is such a tricky color. Some of the greys looked blue or lavender in the different lighting, so I was so happy to finally land on this one. Glad you like it! I think you’ll also find some great affordable pieces at Ikea, they have some hidden little gems there :)
lutis
Aww, thank you, Gracie! I am really happy with this color, grey is such a hard color to choose. We really love how it turned out. We almost went darker.. but like you said, it seemed a little on the gloomy side. Happy we went lighter :) Glad to hear you like the pops of orange! :)

Hi Judy, My husband painted these himself but I would love to get some decals for my son’s bathroom. Are they pretty easy to put on? I always wondered if they were tricky or not :)
lutis
Hi Judy! My husband painted our trees but I have always wondered if the decals were easy to use. Do you like them? I bet your playroom looks amazing!
Erica
Love this room! Where did you get the white lamp that’s on the side table. I’ve been searching for one just like it!
Judy
Lutis, good for you! we’ve actually purchased a few decals from different vendors however the trees from thewalldecors are our favorite, I’ve installed the trees all by myself in less than 3 hrs :), I like the idea of wall decals, you can just take them off later when you decide to have a change instead of repainting the whole wall.
Judy
Yes we love these wall decals! pls see my reply above.
just checked out your birdhouse lamp, so cute and pricy :)
Mary

Where did you get your Alpha print with the I heart U in orange and the rest in blue? I assume etsy but if you have the shop that would be great!
lutis

Leslie
Hi there, your nursey is gorgeous! My main hallways are BM Stonington Gray – everyone always asks.
Quick question: how did you hang the mobile from the ceiling?
Thanks!
Leslie
Sam
This has become the inspiration room for my daughter’s nursery! :) I love that your husband hand-painted the trees; they look exactly like the wall decals!
Can I ask how long it took him and how he did it? I’d love to try painting them for our nursery as well (but only if it’s not too time consuming)
Marta
Hello! first of all what an amazing nursery! Love it! :)
I’m going to hand paint the birch trees as well, and I was wondering if you have any picture of the entire wall that you can send me…
lutis
Hi Leslie – So sorry for the late reply, I just now saw this.. . We used fishing wire to hang the mobile :) Thank you so much for the sweet words! Yayyy for Stonington Gray in your hallways! I would love to paint our halls that color too. Such a great one :)
lutis
Ohmygosh… thank you so much! What a huge compliment!! I am so sorry for the late reply – I just saw this. (eek!)
My hubby did them overnight (stayed up wayyyyy late) and then used another day to do touch ups – but he had it finished over the weekend :) I hope you had so much fun putting your daughter’s nursery together! :)
lutis
Thank you Marta, so so so much! So sorry for the delayed reply! I am just seeing these comments. (so sorry!) I hope your trees turned out beautiful and you had a blast painting them! :)
Kathlyn
I am in love with the birch trees on one wall idea and yours, BY FAR, is the best one I have seen! Did you free hand your trees or do you have a picture you followed that you are open to sharing?!
Anna
What color gray is this?
Tammy
Did you make the birdhouse nightlight or did you buy it somewhere?
Olivia Ava
