Pirate Theme Nursery

Treasure Map

My love of pirates inspired my pirate nursery theme for my son-to-be. First, I chose the accent colors of orange, chocolate and pistachio green for the stripes around the top of the room, and there was a LOT of taping in preparation for the stripes!! The rest of the nursery was designed around these 3 colors, the biggest piece being the mural of the treasure map!

The crib from pottery barn has dark chocolate drawers along the bottom, and the bedding features light green and brown. I picked out a nautical themed lamp and musical mobile as well.

The mural was painted by hand. First, it was sketched on paper and then a transparency was created and projected onto the wall using an overhead projector. The mural took 3 sittings about 4 hours each. It was a combined effort and painted by 2 close friends of mine.

A bright orange glider from Monte Design ties the room together nicely, and this room turned out to be a very chic pirate themed room! I absolutely LOVE it!!

This is such a great idea for a boys room! The mix of colours totally works and I love the mural. The nice thing about this design is that your son will not grow out of the theme for a while...

It is not too much of a baby theme.

Nice

I was just thinking of making a pirate-themed room for my upcoming son. I also want to name him Gray, but The Wife disagrees.

Can you share some of the materials/products used? Are there any off-the-shelf things you recommend?
