Sunny Nursery

Description

A bright, sunny and relaxed nursery with contemporary furniture and a vintage edge....

Design Inspiration

I wanted to create a really happy room and was inspired by my own first room, where my dad had painted elephants on walls and cupboards.

Decorating Style

Contemporary, warm and relaxed.

Project Details

I decided on a bright sun yellow stripe for the wall and combined with with a modern ochre. The elephant and giraffe are from an original 70's wallpaper created by dutch designer Inken. I searched Etsy and London flea markets for small paintings and prints and also found the cute mobile and paper butterflies on Etsy. The happy dandelion lamp is from Ikea as is the chair with an elephant pillow from the Indian souk in Dubai. I only splurged out on the bed - Its a Leander bed that can grow with the years.

Favorite Items

It has to be the bed and the wallpaper animals!

Advice

Etsy is a great source for unique finds - I am a happy customer there!

    Fun and youthful colors! My favorite has to be the 3D butterflies on the wall! The mobile looks adorable, too.

    I like this.  I am curious as to what you did with the crib and other baby stuff and how you had them designed and painted to suit the room :)

    I soooo love that wallpaper elephant and the giraffe.  GREAT STUFF!  I think the butterflies are great accents too.
