Girls Nursery: Light & Airy Woodland Theme

Originally aiming for a gender neutral theme, I couldn’t help but throw several feminine touches to my daughter’s nursery. After gathering “girls woodland theme nursery” inspirations from Pinterest, my first purchase for her room was the Crate & Barrel Little Fawn Baby Quilt. I used the quilt to guide my vision for the entire room. I purchased and printed the adorable baby animals above her crib from The Crown Prints, and selected ones with flower crowns to keep the theme going from the quilt. I incorporated the soft pink trim from the quilt throughout the room with the mobile, storage baskets, throw pillow and blanket. There are a few gold/brass splashes on the quilt, so I decided to go with all gold/brass finish hardware–including the closet door knobs, picture frames, curtain rods, end table, lamp and mirror–which added a fun pop to the room.
Gender neutral? I think this nursery has potential for an easy swap of soft pinks and flowers to deep blues/greens and more of that woodland feel I was originally looking into!

Asher’s Natural Explorer Nursery

I had no real plan for this nursery when I started out beyond liking gray and orange.  The first item I purchased was the cow rug and the rest of the room kind of evolved from there.
Many items in the room were repurposed.  For example, the dresser and chest were my mom’s when she was a little girl, just repainted with new hardware. Likewise, the suitcases were already in the guest room. I had actually just moved them out of the way when we were positioning the crib and they ended up staying there.
We had originally planned built in bookcases but as my due date neared and my nesting reached critical levels, we opted for the plumbing pipe shelving for the sake of speed.  Once installed though, I couldn’t be happier with the choice.

Lenora’s Vintage Nursery

Vintage, pretty, eclectic, and bohemian. That sums up this sweet little girl’s nursery. After having 2 boys, I was pretty excited to find out we were having a girl, and I was especially excited to decorate the nursery. This bedroom is a labor of love. We did everything ourselves, including painting, making some DIY wall decor & quilts, and hitting the thrift shops and discount stores. Found lots of great inspiration online and at local small shops and thrift stores.

Penelope’s Woodland Fairy Tale Nursery

Penelope’s nursery is calming and cozy in soft tones of grays and yellows, yet the woodland fairy tale elements make it an inspiring space that will encourage her to dream and use her imagination. A combination of new objects, like her gray suede rocker and white jenny lind crib, combine with old heirlooms and found objects, like her antique bird cage and yellow vanity, to create a timeless and comfortable feel.
