Caroline's Nursery Inspiration

I'll be honest, I haven't done a terribly large amount of work on the nursery yet. (Okay, so I've done absolutely nothing. And Caroline's nursery is currently still an office.) I'm feeling super inspired this week though, and I think it's time to get our rears in gear on our baby girl's special room.

I fell in love with the Baby Cache Chantal Convertible Crib in Linen with the matching Chantal dresser from Baby's 'R Us. I think we'll be ordering both this weekend!



As far as bedding, a Twitter/blog friend shared Serena and Lily's amazing site with me and I fell in love with the Tess Crib Collection. Those muted colors, that damask print...swoon.





I also LOVED the Blue and Taupe Paisley Crib Set from bedding.com. It is exactly what I feel like a sweet baby girl's nursery should be: sweet, subtle and chic.



As far as a color palette, I want lots of very muted colors: soft grays, creamy whites, burlap browns and the palest of pinks.



And yes, we'll be installing a chandelier. It was a must for a baby girl's room, which I said from the get-go.


A few nurseries I spotted on Pinterest that inspired the colors:






What inspired your children's nurseries? Or what is inspiring your future baby's nursery (if you're at that stage in life)?

  4. I love your ideas. What a beautiful nursery it will be. I cannot wait to see the progress and final product. I don't have children or any on the way, but I have thought a little about it. I think if we ever have a baby girl, her nursery will be filled with soft lavender.

  6. Designing a nursery was one of the most fun (not to mention expensive) endeavors during my pregnancy.

    You have me jonesin' to decorate another! I love everything you've chosen and I can't wait to see the finished product!

  7. I love all of your inspiration! I'm 18 weeks pregnant and we still don't know the gender of our baby, but once we do I think we are going to try and stick to very muted hues like you did. We want something that our baby can grow into instead of changing it right away.

  9. It's so pretty! I love the ornate crib and the dainty details of the chandelier and fabrics.
    I know a lot of you southern mamas go all out with the bedding but the only thing to use that's safe is a fitted sheet and nothing else. Bumpers and blankets provide a huge risk of suffocation and without the airflow around the crib (through the slats), then you also increase the risk of SIDS.
    Just something to look into ;)
