A modern spin on a nautical themed nursery!
A modern and minimalist twist on an under the sea nursery!
I grew up spending my summers at our family’s lake house, always out on the water either sailing, swimming or water skiing. The lake is where my husband and I met and eventually got married. It’s nestled in a small town in northern Indiana where the pace is slow and the people are friendly. Growing up I remember my mom used to take me to antique shops around town to find special, one-of-a-kind items to use as decor in the lake house. Our lake house and the small town in northern Indiana inspired the theme for our first baby boy’s nursery. The only item I really splurged on was the crib, because I knew exactly what I wanted. The rest (dresser, side table, book chest, wall art) I found at antique or consignment shops and refurbished to make them match my vision. The best part about the room is that the wallpaper is original to the home (built in 1969!) and it is just perfect.
Nautical children’s rooms are a classic choice for the nursery or kids room. We’ve got all the inspiration you need for your nautical nursery in our slideshow above and all the nautical decor below to help you create your own! […]
Having worked with Felix’s parents twice already, to be invited back a third time was pretty special!
I had a great understanding of their style and knew we could try something a little bold….while still remaining a really classic base.
We started with the navy grasscloth wallpaper and added in a beautiful wainscoting base. Little nautical touches throughout the space incorporate the family’s love with the ocean.
Decorating for this party was so much fun! Our little guy was born in July, so there was no shortage of red white and blue decor! As for the goldfish centerpieces I just used vases we had on hand and voila! Unique fishbowl centerpieces on every table – super cute and very cost effective with goldfish going for just 50 cents each!
