Raindrops and Dandelions Nursery
by Chelsea
Raindrops and Dandelions Nursery
I knew I wanted to go with neutrals with pops of color. I just didn't know what colors or theme I really wanted to go with. As for the wall decor... - The picture frames that hang on the raindrops wall are from the dollar store. I took mint green tissue and used mod podge to glue it around the outside of the frames. I originally had the tissue poofs hanging above the changing table, but it seemed like too much going on with the raindrops. I decided to use the 3 small umbrellas after finding them on a wholesale site for $3 a piece. - The two shelves and mirrors that hang next to the windows are from the thrift store. It's amazing what you can find at the Goodwill! - The mint frames that hang on the opposite sides of the crib are from Michaels. I purchase those types of frames pretty often, because they come unfinished, so you can paint them whatever color you want. I handmade the art on the inside of them and used photos that I found on the internet. I purchased the side table from Target and my husband gave it an ombre effect with silver and white spray paint. The bookcase came from Target as well. I painted the inside of the book shelves with the peach paint. How did you store all your baby goodies? In baskets, on shelves? Most of the babies goodies are stored in the changing dresser, but toys and books are stored on the bookshelf. I did purchase baskets to store diapers and other baby products. How long did it take you? Was it easy, fun, difficult? What was your favorite part? It took me several months to complete the whole nursery. I had so much fun doing it! Although the raindrops wall turned out to be more difficult than I anticipated, it turned out to be a really beautiful focal point to the room. It is my favorite part of the whole room. Did you do the entire nursery on your own or did someone help you? Who? What did they do? I did the entire nursery on my own. However, I did enlist my husbands help for painting projects:). What do you love most about your little one's finished baby room? I think my favorite thing about this nursery is that it is so different from anything I have ever seen. The color theme is a bit more common, but the idea of having raindrops, clouds, and dandelions throughout isn't as common. During my search for inspiration I found so many phrases like, "Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's learning to dance in the rain," "Some people feel the rain, others just get wet," "Without rain there would be no rainbows," and "When you look at a field of dandelions, you can either see a hundred weeds or a hundred wishes." The positive inspiration behind each of these phrases made me want to incorporate the rain and dandelions that much more. It made me think about the emotions one feels when having a baby. During the early months, life can seem like a storm, but like the quote says, "it's learning to dance in the rain." Not taking any part of the process for granted, because along the way we are all growing into better, stronger people. Without all the hardships, we wouldn't be able to see or embrace the joy a baby truly brings. Return to Baby Nursery Photos Contest 2013.
