I am Dana and Own Kid Murals by Dana. I traveled to Houston, TX to paint a long time friends baby nursery. We added the tree and a cute little elephant at the base of the crib. The tree flowers have cute crystals as an added touch.
As an interior designer, I have been imagining my first child’s nursery for so long and once I found out we were pregnant, I couldn’t wait to start the design. I had so many ideas that I wanted to create, my boyfriend had to reign me in and get me to narrow down all the ideas for the baby’s nursery.
After our gender reveal, we got started right away for our bouncing baby boy. I created my Pinterest board for boy nurseries and went to town on putting together the idea(s). I drew the floor plan in AutoCAD to figure out what furniture would fit and then Photoshop’d my ideas in with the colors and wall decor.
Paint Colors Used:
Walls: Sherwin Williams Blissful Blue
Stripes: Sherwin Williams Indigo Batik [inspiration]
Hexagon Shelves [Interior Colors]: Sherwin Williams Indigo Batik, Pratt & Lambert Early Morn and Glidden Grey Tabby
The Ikea spice racks were an idea I saw in a previous project on here [found via Pinterest] – it’s such a cute and easy idea for baby book shelves – I painted them in a basic Behr ceiling white paint and assembled. These are hung about 12″ apart from the top edge to bottom edge of the next one.
The two (2) custom shelves on the wall were another inspiration I found via Pinterest and had them made at a local shop to me – purchased the Ikea metal brackets and had the two (2) pieces of wood fabricated for a snug fit! These were surprisingly inexpensive for them being custom.
The floor pouf was a great find at HomeGoods alongside the white + gold accented elephant piggy bank and the grey + silver elephant hamper. The gold elephants and giraffes on the top shelf were a part of my beautiful baby shower my friends threw for us – I’m not sure where they were purchased from but they were a part of the decor we thought we could integrate into the nursery’s design. The crocheted elephant on the hexagon shelves was a baby shower gift from my cousin – it’s the cutest thing ever!
We still have a lot more designing and adding to go but this is just the start. Clark was born on 07.14.17 so there will be plenty more memories and decor to add as he grows!
My husband and I went through a long battle with infertility. Even when I found out I was pregnant as the result of IVF the doctor still didn’t think my pregnancy would be successful. Years ago when I would dream about becoming a mom, I always imagined an elephant nursery. When we finally found the pregnancy was viable, i slowly began to scan Pinterest for ideas. I started with the crib bedding and went from there! I can’t wait for our little guy to get here and enjoy his room!
When I found out I was having my second girl, I was stumped on everything. Name, shower, gadgets, and most of all….the nursery. I felt like I had JUST been through it all (just a few months ago!!!) and had picked the most perfect of all options, so how was I to possibly choose?? But as the months went by, I found a theme I loved and ran with it. I absolutely adore how this nursery turned out. Soft, modern, clean, and feminine. I learned a lot from my first (like…don’t skimp on the glider — do you have any idea how many hours you’ll be spending in it????), so I was able to create a space I know is lovely but also very, very functional.
Henry’s elephant nursery was a work of love! I had so much fun finding and creating unique pieces to add to the space. I chose aqua and yellow along with gray as my main colors and incorporated elephants into the theme for a fun twist.
When my husband and I found out we were having twin boys I wanted to create an elephant nursery that was sophisticated and elegant yet charming for my sweet boys. With a green wall already in place I did a lot of research on nursery designs and then pieced Mason & Henry’s room together from there incorporating many things I love: chevron, elephants, and some personal touches.
When we were deciding on how to decorate my daughter’s room, I knew I wanted something relatively gender neutral with just a slight girly flair. I wanted the space to feel put together, but still have a touch of whimsy. We were working with limited square footage so everything had to do double duty and be functional, as well as, add to the overall look and feel of the room.
Asher’s Elephant Nursery
We wanted to provide Levi a nursery that he could grow into as toddler by avoiding the typical baby elephant theme. Instead we used the elephant painting to inspire an artsy elephant nursery.
We decided to go with a pink and grey elephant nursery theme for our second baby’s nursery. Monogram & name is DIY, bedding & clock were ordered from Etsy, bookshelf & glider were Craigslist finds.

I designed this grey, pink and white elephant theme nursery for our 1st baby girl. I wanted a modern room with a touch of sparkle. I added personal touches mixed with new pieces to fit the vision for a beautiful nursery. I changed the dresser and side table knobs to glass. I made the art by blowing up images I found online and tracing them on canvas.

We went a little overboard with the pink, gray, white and elephant theme, but we absolutely love how the nursery came out.
Elephants!
When we found out we were having a baby boy I knew that I wanted to create a warm, inviting, unique atmosphere for our special little guy. I was inspired by Restoration Hardware but wanted subtle hints of sweet and masculine features to be incorporated as well. My objective was to maintain an environment that had more than just a baby feel, but even gave a warm feeling to whoever walked in.
A elephant themed nursery for our first baby boy, Camden. We had wanted an elephant-theme and found the Skip Hop Elephant theme set.
After becoming pregnant with my first child (a bouncing baby boy!) paired with my passion for decor, it was the most fun project I have ever done! I can’t wait to have my baby and enjoy this room together.
