Orange, Gray and Turquoise Wanderlust Nursery

Description

We wanted a colorful place that portrayed our love of travel that we hope to pass on to our son.

Design Inspiration

We wanted something modern and colorful but still made the room feel inviting and somewhere we could spend hours. We found a lot of ideas on Pinterest and Etsy and eventually weeded out enough to make it feel just right for us!

Decorating Style

Modern, Colorful and a little bit weird (We live in Austin after all)

The room was already painted perfectly for how we envisioned our baby boy's nursery.   (Colors:  Benjamin Moore Baby Boy Blue & Behr Caribe)

Favorite Items

The globe mobile.  We originally bought it to go over the crib, but it was way more massive than we expected so we put it over in the corner so when we are rocking the baby to sleep or feeding he can enjoy them.   The ceiling fan in the room makes them move all day long.

Advice

We started with the crib and made that the focal point of how we wanted to do the rest of the room.    It all sort of falls into place once you figure out the first big thing!
