Purple and Chevron: A Modern Girl Nursery

Description

The gray & white chevron with a nature/woodsy nursery. We added pops of color throughout the room using peacock feathers as the color inspiration.

Design Inspiration

The gray & white chevron print got the wheels turning. Wanting a theme that would easily transition into a toddler room, we went with a nature/woodsy feel. Continuing that vibe, we added pops of color throughout the room using peacock feathers as the color inspiration.

Decorating Style

Modern.

Advice

Don’t limit yourself to a theme-in-a-bag nursery — be creative! Buy a few things over a period of time, slowly but surely everything will come together.

Love the recurring chevron and the whimsical touches on the shelf, like that little house. You still have room for more, though. And maybe you can highlight the things you're displaying there if the background patterns aren't there.

Wow. The purple wall is dramatic. I like the white and grey theme, especially the white and grey prints and photographs on the wall, with the pops of turquoise.
