Description:
I wanted to do something creative in his room rather than the normal "blue" when I found out I was having my second son. My husband and I decided on the light lime green, orange, and navy blue paint when we went to Lowes, and I gave him my idea. After 3 days of taping and painting we had our son's perfect nursery. The rest of the room I pulled from those colors, not wanting to settle on one theme for the room.

Design Inspiration:
I love stripes! Stripes are beautiful and make any room fun. The different colors and sizes of the stripes are my favorite design.

Project Details:
The 4 small picture frames by the mirror were my DIY projects. My husband is Romanian and "te iubesc" means I love you, and I wanted to incorporate a bit of his heritage in his room. All of it was made out of scrapbooking material I already had. The green mirror I just happened to find at Lowes, it was cheap enough and matched so I had to have it! The white cubed shelf with green boxes are from Lowes as well, and I put the small baby toys in one and my stock of small baby supplies in the other. The 4 lanterns were ordered online for cheap from Luna Bazaar, and I think they really pop in this room. Last but not least, the crib bedding is from "Modified Tot" on Etsy. The design caught my eye and I ordered my bumper and crib skirt. The letters spelling JACE are from Hobby Lobby, and the blue touch lamp was actually my husbands from a long time ago, and I found it in my basement recently and it matches great! I still plan to add more to his room, such as pictures and a birth print, all having to be done after he is born!

Favorite Items:
My favorite item is the crib bedding. It's unique and brings everything in the room together. It is fun, simple, and can grow with my son into his toddler bed.

Advice:
You will need 1" and 2" tape to make stripes and do only 1 color per day (It took us 3 days!)
