Description
I wanted something bright, cheery, and non-traditional (aka "pink") for my daughter's nursery.
Design Inspiration
Heather Bailey's Nicey Jane fabrics were just what I was looking for! My sister lovingly created the crib bumpers, bed skirt, curtains, and valance.
Decorating Style
Traditional with a hint of retro flair.
Project Details
Valspar Paint Colors: Fruit Compote (yellow) & Green Tea (green)
Heather Bailey fabrics: http://www.heatherbaileystore.com/category-s/59.htm

Blue sheets/changing pad cover: Summer Infant in Mineral
Mirror and Frames: IKEA
Favorite Items
I love, love, love the textiles. They're like bright, cheery retro aprons from the 50's!
Advice
The key to achieving PERFECT stripes is the right tape. Blue painter's tape does NOT cut it. It is worth the extra bucks to use Frog Tape: http://www.lowes.com/SearchCatalogDisplay?storeId=10151&langId=-1&catalogId=10051&N=0&newSearch=true&Ntt=frog+tape
We also used a laser level to get straight lines.

Love it! I am probably going to go with this color scheme for a gender-neutral nursery. :)

Bright, cheery and breezy indeed! I really like the colors and the striped walls.
