I’ve daydreamed about creating a nursery for years… finding out I was having a boy presented a challenge for me – as I had only envisioned a pink shabby chic room! Decorating for a boy seemed daunting to me – I didn’t want trains or trucks – little by little this is what came to be!

I love your nursery! I am in the same boat–had lots of shabby chic ideas, but am having a boy. I am also planning a yellow/red/blue vintage-esque nursery and was so glad to see your nursery for inspiration and confirmation that my colors aren’t too girly. What color is your wall paint? I am having trouble finding the “prefect” yellow.

I adore the colors you have for this room! But I am a little undecided about that quilt though. I have to admit that it’s a unique touch, but it might be too much for a nursery. I love the pictures on the walls, they really light up the room. Did you make the book cases yourself? Where did you buy those?

12+ – most of your questions are answered already in the description :) I did make the bookcases, there is a link to where you can find a tutorial above. The quilt was something that his mommy made for him, so it’s special to us.
CK – I say go for it!! I found that using more of an aqua that a traditional blue made it more fun :) Go for it girl, don’t be scared of color :) I looked everywhere for the paint color, which is why it took me so long to reply to this! (that and baby Myers made his debut last week!) I couldn’t find it anywhere :( I’ll shoot you a message if I find it.. my advice is, find something without too much orange in it (look at the base color below it/around it) and go lighter than you think. When painting yellow its the hardest paint to cover, we did 3 coats on nearly white walls!!) get a paint w/ primer…
Thank you taint!
