Vintage Travel and Airplane Nursery

Description

Vintage travel and airplane nursery that enhances vintage decor using modern colors and playful design.

Design Inspiration

My husband and I love to travel, and my husband studied airplane design when you combine the two you have a nursery that blends design, color and a combination of everything we both love.

Decorating Style

Vintage meets modern with an Anderson twist.

Advice

Find a picture that you love and use it as a color pallet. Don't be afraid to blend colors that may not seem like they obviously go together. Add personal touches that create a simple and custom feel.
