My daughter’ chevron nursery is gray, white and HOT pink nursery with different prints. We included mostly chevron with gotcha, fynn, polka dots and giraffe. This nursery is a room that could be used through the teenage years.
After finding out we were having a girl, I thought it would be a nice idea to surprise my wife with a room makeover. While she was at work on a Sunday, a friend of mine and I tackled this fun project. Within 6 hours, the room was complete.
When we found out we were pregnant five years ago, I knew I wanted a soft and peaceful nursery for my first child, Shiloh, so I decided to go with “less is more.” Three years later, we welcomed our second daughter, Sailor, who had her own beautiful room….. for a year. We welcomed our third child into the world just 13 months later and since he was a boy, he took over Sailor’s room. Pictured are the stages Shiloh’s room took throughout the transition from nursery to toddler room to shared room with sister Sailor. An addition was added to the house throughout this process which required a hall. We took about five feet from the room to use as a hall, so everything was re positioned and that’s when we painted the accent wall. My husband is very artistic and creative and did this on his own. I love every stage this room has been in and its one of my favorite rooms in the house.

This is my idea of a dream nursery. We did it all from scratch. Started with a blank canvas and my husband and I would bounce ideas back and forth. This is a collaboration between the two of us.
When we first started creating our nursery we wanted to go with a soft color pallet. It was important to create a space not only our baby would grow to love but one that we also found a soothing and relaxing place.
We mixed patterns and play with pink and gray and a little bit of yellow as an accent.
When we found out we were pregnant with our THIRD child, we were surprised, but, even more surprised to find out she was a girl! We have two boys, and I’ve never really been into pinks and frills, so my original idea was to go with oranges and hot pinks. I wasn’t planning to put much effort into her room because I knew we didn’t have the budget or the space for it.
But, our baby was born 14 weeks early in December (she was due in April) and she weighed less than 1.5 lbs. It was a tough time for all of us. And, when I met her two days after she was born, I knew she was our princess. And, all I kept thinking my little princess had to fight to come home, and when she did, I wanted to have to have something beautiful (and girly) ready for her. And, despite our very small budget and small space, I was determined to give her the room she deserved.
When I was a baby, my room was decorated with bunnies and when my husband was a baby, his was decorated with elephants. So, we decided that if our baby was a girl, her room would be bunny-themed and if he was a boy, it would be elephant-themed. We found out we were going to have a girl and we ended up with what you see.
My husband added the beadboard and crown molding.
I wanted Ireland’s nursery to be soft and feminine. I didn’t have a specific theme, but I knew I wanted it to be pink and gray. From there I let my creativity run wild!
A pink and gray whimsical nursery designed just for our baby girl.
I always thought that if I had a baby girl i wouldn’t make a nursery that was overly girly. As I started to design her nursery, I couldn’t help but help but gravitate towards everything girly!
A nursery for our first child.
Early in my pregnancy, I somehow knew we were having a girl. I could only envision a darling little baby girl nursery! We wanted to create a peaceful and elegant atmosphere, with a few nature-inspired elements.
We’d been using the room as a guest room, and ultimately decided we could still use the nursery as dual purpose. I wanted to make sure it could fulfill both needs and still be coordinated well.
I looked at a lot of pictures on Pinterest before coming up with this concept. I knew I wanted very simple bedding. My husband wouldn’t allow me to paint the nursery because our house is new construction and we plan to use the room as an office in two years. That forced me to bring color in with fabrics. I knew what I wanted for bedding, but the pink bedding is so pale it made it difficult to find fabric to match. I finally found the fabric that brought in the gray from the furniture pieces I had from Nadeau.

I wanted to update Blair’s nursery with more grown up colors. I decided gray would be a color she could grow with and the pink could be changed out if she wanted to. The black added a bit of an edge to the sweet decor.
