Vintage Truck Nursery

What baby boy wouldn't want to come home from the hospital to a great room like this? Lisa from The Unglamorous Mommy designed this vintage truck room for her little guy. She says, "When we found out that we were expecting a baby boy, my husband immediately said that he wanted the nursery to be truck themed.  Not being big on themed rooms, I told him we could do truck accents.  I love what we did and so does my husband - he's even told me that he wishes we could do our bedroom like this."

The main fabric print was found at Target. Oh yes. Target. I love this trick! Curtain panels and table cloths can make wonderful curtains, slip covers and more. Lisa bought extras of the Mod Dot curtain panels so that she had enough to not only hang on the windows but also to cover a pillow and a bench cushion. 

Lisa matched the paint from the fabric. She says, "The paint job took forever, but is worth it in the end.  We had to re-tape about 10 times." She recommends investing in a quality laser level.

The three truck pictures over the crib were purchased at an art fair.  

The vintage signs really make this wall pop.

The alphabet wall was made from unfinished wooden letters in a variety of fonts and sizes.

Gender Neutral Nursery

Design Dazzle reader Cat Moore baby's room was featured in Southern Living. Way to go Cat!! Cat and her husband John transformed an office into a baby nursery/big boy room. They waited until the birth day to find out if they were having a boy or a girl. Their goal was to create a gender neutral nursery. And boy, they sure did!



Wall paint color is Willow Branch by Valspar. Color above wall ledge is a bright white. I'm loving the display ledge to display your favorite plush animals, toys or your own toys from childhood.
