Just two months to go and Baby Deux arrives! It’s definitely high time we get this nursery in order! I’m striving for a space that is neutral, calming with clean design. This is what I have in mind for the baby’s space:
canvas map $29
OYSTER PRINt $50
striped yellow crib sheet $29
yo ho pirate pillow $19
crib $99
pirate treasure box $9.95
brass table $60
corduroy lion $24.95
teepee (already owned)
rocker $800
ZIG ZAG BASKET $16.95
That’s what his nursery would look like if he had a room all to himself, BUT we’ve decided to have Arden and the baby share a room. A little scary, but I’m thinking it will be a good thing…eventually. Besides it’s really nice having a spare room for guests! So we’ll try it out for now. And if you follow me on Instagram, I posted a little peek of the progress!
Basically I’m going to keep all the bigger items neutral and the walls white. Baby’s side will have splashes of gold and yellow and Arden’s side will have pops of hot pink and fucshia. That way they each have a presence in what would otherwise be a very neutral room.
Here’s what I’m thinking for Arden’s side:
pink LAMP $165
When I was searching for color I went straight to Land of Nod. I’m so excited to be collaborating with them on this space. They have such a huge selection of fun, modern and colorful furniture and accessories for kids. I knew they would have some great inspiration for me. Especially since I had such a mental block with this room. Seriously, for months I had no idea where to go with the direction. Thankfully after spending long periods of time surfing the Land of Nod site, I finally came up with some ideas!
I used Land of Nod’s bedding as my inspiration for both sides of the shared room. The goldish yellow in the crib sheet really helps warms up all of the black and white going on. And Arden’s favorite color is hot pink, so those neon pink sheets were a no brainer. Now all that’s left is to combine the two in one room…easy, right? 😉

RugsUSA has the same rug 🙂 It's called the Moroccan shag rug I think.

This is perfect! I have been having such a hard time finding inspiration for a shared boy-girl room. My daughter is 2 and we are expecting baby boy in Dec/Jan. Good luck to you with the rest of your pregnancy!
