Baby Girl's Nursery

Planning the nursery with a blank slate and putting my own touch on everything has me tickled pink!  I have a vision.  And this vision is Pottery Barn Chic.  The theme is light pink. light gray and white with Pottery Barn bunnies ONLY.  It's slowly coming together but I'm loving how things are turning out so far!  Here is a sneak peak at my vision.

After many paint samples, I think we finally hit the nail on the head on the perfect gray walls.



We spent many hours searching for the perfect crib and this crib is too perfect!  I LOVE IT!  So excited it was a baby girl because I really wanted a white crib, it's so feminine.


Then we got the matching dresser, fits well in the room.

The dresser came with this ugly cheap looking white knobs so I replaced them with some crystal knobs I found at Home Depot, it was one of those touches to make it my own and class it up a bit. 


I ordered this gray rug and it should be coming any day now!  




I really wanted a baby chandelier for the room.  I had a hard time finding a reasonably priced one that didn't look cheap.  I was able to find one that was reasonably priced that I liked and ordered this one on Amazon but it's on back order, sure hope it looks as good as the picture!




We haven't picked out a rocking chair yet but this is the style we like, and we've seen many we like so it should be pretty easy to pick one out.  That is our next big purchase on the list!



Above the crib we are going to do our baby's name with frames like this picture.  Our baby's name is not Ellie but with the name we have chosen, it should work out well to replicate this look.

love this baby room

I'm going to order these curtain ties but question... should I do light pink curtains with  gray ties or gray curtains with pink ties?   I'm leaning towards gray curtains with pink ties.  I can pick out any color for the ties off of Etsy.com.

This blog has some really cool, inexpensive ideas for decorating the home...pin now, read later.

Plan on getting this shelf at IKEA.  We are heading to IKEA in a couple of weeks.  I have the perfect corner for it.

Small shelf in the corner of the entry area to Isabella's room for her toys.

I LOVE this rocker and it's kinda the inspiration for the room.  I haven't bought it yet, I have it on my registry but I may break down and buy it beforehand.



So we really didn't want a theme outside of colors but then I saw these cute bunnies at Pottery Barn Kids and I think as long as I only do Pottery Barn bunnies in different sizes, it will have a consistent look.  I really don't want to tell people I'm having a bunny themed room because I really don't want a bunch of random bunnies that don't match.  So you've heard it here, bunnies from Pottery Barn Kids only!  My biggest fear is someone getting me a bugs bunny.  That's why I'm super apprehensive to tell people it's a bunny themed room, not every bunny is cute people, and I'm very particular on this.



And last but not least, here is the bedding I've picked out.  It's on the registry so I'm just going to have to wait to get it.  So hard to wait, I just want to complete the room now!




So that is my vision in a nutshell!  Aaron says every day he peeks in the nursery and gets excited when he looks at it.  How cute is he for saying that?  I do too though :)  And it smells so new freshly painted with new furniture!  It's coming together and my Pottery Barn Chic look is just so frickin' cute it makes me giddy like a little girl.
