Description
The nursery is a forest animal theme. We did a lot of DIY projects and had so much fun making a little place for our baby boy!
Design Inspiration
We wanted to teach Mason all about the animals his Daddy protects (he's an Environmental Conservation Police Officer), so what better way then to make his room have forest animals? So, then I found a nursery that had cool stripes painted up the wall behind the crib and I just had to do that! That same nusery had other elements I liked as well, and just went from there.
The nursery I was inspired by is here:

Decorating Style
Modern and whimsical on a budget.

Favorite Items
The Dutailier glider we bought at Babies "R" Us! I sit in it every day and it's the best seat in the house. It's worth the investment.

I'd love to know where you got the crib sheet and changing pad cover. I know it was a few years ago but it is surprisingly difficult to find forest friends in just these colors. Most have also oranges and reddish browns of owls and foxes.

What is the yellow color called on the wall? We tried one color and is NOT RIGHT! Yours is so mellow and peaceful.

Really nice nursery. I love the colors, the simplicity, and the decors. The felt mobile is just adorable, too.
