Baby Halvorson Nursery Reveal

At 37 weeks its due time for both a baby and the nursery reveal!  I have had lots of fun decorating this space and ended up straying just a bit from my original design board.  The brown, yellow and white was a little too matchy so I introduced a rusty orange and lime green to make the space more playful.  Here is a reminder of what the room looked like before.

I can’t say the room is 100% complete, because when we know Baby H’s gender I will definitely want to add some feminine or masculine touches where appropriate.  But with Baby H set to arrive any day, here is where we will be bringing him/her home to!

Window Seat
The tiny room lacked a focal point so I created the window seat to give the room more depth and accent the large window. 

Changing Station
The room has a very small closet so I  chose a changing table that would provide plenty of storage and flexibility.

Display Wall
I created this wall so the books, artwork and decor can easily be changed, providing instant design updates.

Letters
I used decals to accent the short Cape Cod wall and provide a pop of color for baby to enjoy from the crib.

Crib
I kept the crib neutral with a homemade crib skirt and brown “sheet saver.”  Once we know Baby H’s gender I will add a gender appropriate bumper and accents on the wall.


So there it is, with just a couple weeks to spare! I included a source list of some of the key components of the room.
