Nursery Inspiration

When I began planning baby R's nursery, there were a few things I knew right off the bat: I did not want to paint the walls, I wanted a calm feel, I did not want a particular theme (jungle, owls, etc), and I loved the color aqua (for either a girl or a boy).  So based on that criteria, I began my search for nursery inspiration...

For those of you who do not know, I love Pinterest and use it as a jumping off point for so many of my projects, Baby R's nursery was no exception.  There are endless nursery ideas to be found on Pinterest. Below are just a few of my finds that really inspired me.

       

 I fell in love with this nursery the moment I saw it. I find it so calming with the neutral grey; yet fun with the pops aqua throughout the space. 

Here is the same feel again

I decided to go with a similar feel for Baby R's nursery, but using the taupe color of our walls in place of the grey shown in the examples. I also wanted to add another accent color in the mix, and finally decided to go with a pink to make the room more "girly". Now the hunt was on for the right bedding!  Here are a few of my favorites that I found (and more pictures of beautiful nurseries!):
