Avery's nursery has literally been keeping me up at night. Granted, this has a lot to do with the fact that I'm a rabid design junkie. I spent the first five months of my pregnancy scouring sites like modernnursery.com, fawnandforest.com, 2modern.com, etc. Plus the more traditional favorites like potterybarnkids.com and landofnod.com. After 16 weeks of gestating (and obsessing about the nursery) I came to the conclusion that I could never take a design out of a url and put it in my house. I needed to design something custom for our girl that would be unlike anything else I'd seen.
This led to phase two of my search: choosing a color palette and furniture. To be followed by phase three (which I'm in now): choosing the art and details to pull it all together. Clearly, I'm not there yet. But I'll tell you how far I've gotten so far. The color palette is as follows:
Brown
Lime
White
Lavender
Namely, the walls are lavender. The furniture is mahogany and the bedding will be simple, brown and white. Decorative accents (like the lamp below) will serve as pops of lime to accent. Below I've included the furniture, including the rocker and the upholstery we're having it covered in. Next step is art, so stay tuned.
(*note, the bedding pictured on the crib is not what we're going with. no pink, not even a little:-)
