As soon as we found out we were having a baby boy, my husband got to work on Graham’s nursery.  The adventure/outdoors theme wasn’t planned, but rather evolved naturally from the decor we fell in love with.  Our little guy was premature has spent a month in the NICU, and we have learned that life truly is an adventure.  It is not necessarily something that awaits us, but rather is always around us.

We had previously painted the room a blue-gray (Sherwin Williams Evening Shadow).  We added mostly gray and navy elements, with small bursts of earthy colors throughout.  Many DIY elements were incorporated to make the space unique.  The outdoor adventure canvases were hand painted by my husband, he also repainted the glider (a Craigslist steal), and made the arrows.  We purchased the letters for his name, mobile, changing pad cover, and cushions for the glider from a handful of incredibly talented Etsy sellers.  Finally, the pieces his gallery wall came almost entirely from Hobby Lobby, while his furniture and curtains are from Target.
