Description
Pixar themed nursery. Anything Pixar related; Movies and shorts.
Design Inspiration
On the surface or at first glance, the room screams Toy Story, but we really tried to touch on anything related to Pixar. While the bulk of it is Toy Story, if you look closely enough you will see a touch of every movie and some cartoon shorts.
Decorating Style
Character themed.
Project Details
This was a total DIY project. The laminate flooring and the beadboard were purchased at Home Depot and we installed everything. All of the paint is from Sherwin Williams.
Favorite Items
Tie: The birds on the telephone wire and Jack-Jack on the ceiling.
Advice
Patience & Time. We did everything after watching DIY videos and what we learned is that DIY videos make everthing seem easier than they actually are. Everything ended up being easy, but not until after a few trial and errors and bumps in the road.
Awwwwww I super love this room! I am a big Pixar movies fan too! At first I thought the room looks so busy and there’s too much going on, but the more I noticed the details, the more I fell in love with it!
Wonderful! I love the softies from UP, Russel most especially. I love how you placed Monster’s Sully behind the closet door. I love those three birds perched on the wires.
Where did you get the character pictures for the quilt? Did you have them made?
Can you tell me please where you got the clamps for the crib mobile and how you did the birds on the telephone wire :)
A friend of mine used images she found on the internet.
We used claws from a toy called, “Toy Story Mega Action Claw Grab.” They are connected to a red handle. We just dismantled the toy so we could have just the claws.
hey where did you get all the pixar short charaxters from??
Sorry for the delay. They were lucky(very lucky) finds on ebay. Once we found out the “For The Birds” birds existed we googled all others. Another way to search it on ebay would be to search for, “Pixar Rare.”
Sorry, forgot there were two halves of a question here. Regarding the birds, we found a fencing post at Home Depot and cut the curved sides down to about a quater inch thickness and nailed them to the wall. The phone lines are actually window splines, similar to what holds the netting to a frame on the screens. The birds are just pinned to the wall to look like they standing on the lines.
Where did you find the blue rug?
Where did you find the Pixar toy story ball?? I am so inlove!!
Jasmine, the ball was a lucky find at our local Disney store.

Kassy, the quilt was stitched together by a friend of mine.
Omg what shad of blue is this? I’ve been trying to find the name of the blue
Hi – what color blue is that?
I also really want to know what color of blue that is!!!
How many inches are the spaces between the clouds?
Can you please tell me where to get the nursery stuff for my baby boy I love everything mainly where did you buy we’ll the crib set also the wall name
Everyone, sorry for the late responses. I don’t get back here much. The color is called Flyway Blue from Sherwin Williams. The crib set was purchased from a local furniture store that has since then gone out of business here. It was called Guys and Dolls. The letters were created by someone my wife found on Etsy.
Vanessa: I honestly don’t know the measurements. We printed out a copy of the clouds and traced them onto a bunch of 14×17 sheets of xray film and then taped them all over the room. I’m sure the measurements are not exact. I kind of winged it on the pattern and cloud separation. For example, the pattern only really merges over the closet door and the last set of clouds we painted are closer together than all the other clouds.
