Henrik's Nursery « Project Nursery

A Project For: Henrik

Age: Due late April 2013

Location: Chelsea, Michigan

Description:

Nursery for our little boy Henrik who's due in April.

Design Inspiration:

All over the place! I was scouting ideas for a long time to get inspiration.

Decorating Style:

We were aiming for less babyish and more sophisticated while still obviously being a baby's room.

Project Details:

Painted both of the dressers starting with stain block primer

Husband built the book ledges

Plush Giraffe, Melissa and Doug: http://www.amazon.com/Melissa-Doug-2106-Giraffe-Plush/dp/B00009YEGL/ref=sr_1_1?s=baby-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1357607641&sr=1-1&keywords=melissa+and+doug+giraffe

Favorite Items:

The plush giraffe and the Katie Daisy art are some of my favorites. I loved the idea of incorporating Michigan (where we live) and New York (where my parents live) in art for the room.

Advice:

I think picking a solid color that pulls things together and looks sophisticated really gives it a more polished look. In our case that was the navy but I think you have plenty of options.
