Description
Modern Safari theme with olive green and brown and orange accents.
Design Inspiration
My husband and I come from 2 very different states, Texas and California so we had to find a style that suited both our taste and came up with the Modern Safari theme. We painted everything in the room and my husband did the tree. We are so happy that we did this ourselves!
Decorating Style
Traditional with bold colors, fun patterns and orginal work
Project Details
We had the bedding made at Cowgirls and Lace, the crib from Babies r Us, the dresser and Chris's Barewood furniture, the elephant lamp from World market, and the rug from Anthropologie.
Favorite Items
The rug from Anthropolgie and the green contrasting stripes on the wall, also the custom art work done on the walls. Of course the bedding, we are very happy with the colors.
Advice
Always find a piece you really love and design around it. If you decide to do stripes make sure and buy the really good painters tape and seal the edges really well. The paint color should be the same but one is matte finish and the other is satin which is where you get the contrast....I had to do my research on that!
Dido! I would love to know the green paint color! I love the room!
Hey! I absolutley love the colors! What kind of paint and colors did you use? I’m thinking of something along this line but can’t seem to find just the right green! thanks!
Hiya! i was wondering if you can email the names of the paint colours used? I really love the work you guys did! i’m thinking of doing something similar for my baby’s room as well! Thanks!
I had the artwork done by Kimberly custom artwork http://customnurseryart.blogspot.com/
she is very reasonable and great!
The tree my husband found online and used a projector to trace it on the wall and then we painted it! So easy if you can find the projector.
I love your baby’s room! Did order that tree online ?
I love that elephant with the J’s all over it. And I adore those animal illustrations too. Are those etsy or did you paint it? The colors of this room is really uniquely beautiful! I love it!
elephant lamp is from World Market
I guess it depends on what brand you buy finished, I know that Caden Lane has that and they are pricey but I couldn’t find the color I like which was the green, browns, and orange with touches of blue. Thanks for your comments!
Would having a bedding customized be more expensive than just buying a finished one? I love the crib and how classy it looks, it goes well with the rest of the room!
I love the room. Can you tell me where did you get the elephant lamp? It is beautiful! Great job!
Wow! What a beautiful color scheme! The rug and custom art work are my favorite. You and your husband did a really good job tying these colors together!
Whoever said that earth colors were boring? I so love the colors you used here and how you combined them all together!
