Yep! It’s a dark teal. I purchased it on Craigslist but my original plan was to purchase and paint a dresser just like this. I just got super lucky when I found it already done!
The gray walls are Lowe’s no-VOC paint color matched to Benjamin Moore’s Conventry Gray. I didn’t realize how HARD it was to find the right color of gray!! Some are too brown, others too silver. This one was perfect! I purchased the dresser on Craigslist. :) I’m happy to answer any more questions so just let me know!

Love the room! Can you please tell me where you found the rug and the crib bedding? Thanks!
Rug – Urban Outfitters
Crib bedding – made by a friend but the fabric is Joel Dewberry Modern Meadow Picnic Plaid and Nap Sack in Grass. Etsy also has these as well as similar fabrics for custom bedding.

I love the baskets in the ladder!!! How did you attach them and where did you get the baskets from?
Coat hooks! :) They are screwed into the ladder bars and then I just pushed them through the weave of the baskets. I got the baskets at Marshalls.

Question about buying used furniture for a nursery: I’m very worried about off gassing from MDF & paint – any tips on how to make sure used furniture is safe?

Very cute nursery.

That distressed dresser is a winner! Is that color teal?

Hi, would you mind sharing what the name of the paints you used for your nursery? I really like what you’ve done with your nursery :) thanks
