Vintage Disney Themed Boy Nursery

Description

Once I found out that we were having a little boy I knew that I wanted to combine the whimsy of vintage Disney with the modern look of chevron and stripes. My color palate was from Sherwin Williams. The blue is Respite and the gray used on the stripe wall is Pussywillow

Design Inspiration

Vintage Disney sports movie posters from the 1940's and the movie Dumbo. I wanted to keep the room feeling light and airy by using a white furniture and finding a blue that reminded me of a clear sky

Decorating Style

Vintage with a mix of modern

I found the vintage movie posters on ebay.com from the seller zdposter  http://www.ebay.com/itm/Working-for-peanuts-Donald-Duck-Disney-cartoon-poster-print-A46-/321035307449?pt=Art_Posters&hash=item4abf3209b9 The chevron rug came from overstock.com http://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Chevron-Dhurrie-Blue-Ivory-Wool-Rug-6-Square/7026018/product.html?CID=214117   The flying dumbo in the corner of the room is from ebay as well.

It is hard to narrow it down but I would have to say the flying Dumbo hanging from the ceiling.

Advice

Ebay is a great way to find unique pieces that you never knew existed. I liked to use the ebay app on my phone so that I could search regularly and to make sure I never lost out on a bid!
