Planning a nursery\u2014or designing any room, for that matter\u2014is as fun as it is daunting. I can assure you though, it\u2019s all much MUCH easier when you have a mom with gorgeous taste and very definite opinions on what *works.* In a few months\u2019 time, we were able to turn one of our empty guest bedrooms into my favorite room in the whole house. It\u2019s peaceful and serene, with lots of bright white, ocean blues, and sea glass greens, and yet the room still has a fairly neutral quality to it (without being a wash of grays). I love that it has a sweet, somewhat kid-ish feel, but still blends well with the decor and cool tones of the rest of our house.<\/p>\n

First we chose the solid white dresser and hutch (perfect for storing his books, stuffed animals, picture frames, and cute tchotchkes), then the crib, and then the piece that really decided the room\u2019s direction: the rug. My mom and I essentially designed the room around this beautiful turquoise 9-by-12-foot rug she found at a nearby Marshalls. It made our choice of paint color easy: Sea Salt by Sherwin Williams, a tried and true pale blue-green that already covers the walls in my mom\u2019s house and two of my aunts\u2019 homes, as well. I can\u2019t recommend this color enough. It\u2019s soft and calming and always gets compliments.<\/p>\n

I found the chair (a rocking, swivel glider) on Wayfair and can happily report that it\u2019s very comfortable and supposedly it\u2019s not too hard to get stains out of the cream-colored fabric. The blankets and bedding are all from Pottery Barn.<\/p>\n

Choosing art was tough\u2014there are so many cute nursery prints out there! We ultimately went with 4 Rifle Paper Co. prints and 2 larger prints from Minted. I think they\u2019re all adorable, but especially \u201cMr. Pug,\u201d because it reminds us of our sweet Dee Dee.<\/p>\n
