Nursery Art Roundup

If I keep up this pace of pinning art for the nursery then I’m just going to have to wallpaper the walls in prints.  It’s becoming a problem.

But there’s just so much good stuff out there!  Here’s a sampling of the goodies I’ve stumbled across (and bear with me – there’s a strong girlie animal vibe going on since I’m having a girl and decorating an animal-oriented nursery).

A Peacock-Themed Christmas

Raise your hand if you’re excited that Christmas is almost here!!

A Peacock-Themed Christmas

Putting up the tree and all the festive trimmings is always a guaranteed good time – and it always puts me in the holiday spirit.  This year we ditched our old Charlie Brown Christmas tree and sprung for a 7 1/2 foot pre-lit tree, and it makes such a difference!  (It didn’t hurt that the new tree only set us back $130, after using our Sears points and getting free shipping for ordering in the store.)

We also abandoned our old red and gold scheme and tried out peacock-inspired hues, all inspired by some fun and funky stockings that I scored at the Crate & Barrel outlet for just 5 bucks each.  In all, we spent less then $40 for this entirely new look thanks to some DIY ornaments like these, donated goodies from my mom, peacock feather earrings, and gifted crystals from my grandmother years and years ago.

We are really loving our peacock-themed decorations!

Fabric Choices for the Breakfast Room – Help!

Okay, after my mini-meltdown I have narrowed down the fabric choices for the slipcovered chairs in the breakfast room.  Whew!!

It was tough, but after taking into account price, pattern, colors, and my hubby’s opinion (no florals – boo), these are the four finalists!

Fabric Choices for the Breakfast Nook

1.  Waverly Ellis in Flamingo

2.  Waverly Sun n Shade Lenox in Horizon

3.  Premier Prints Chipper in True Turquoise

4.  Waverly Ellis in Turquoise

All of the fabrics are comparable in price, and they’re either indoor/outdoor or can be treated with ScotchGard – so it really just comes down to the best fit for the room!

Speaking of which, the fabric will be going in this room . . .

. . . and this room . . .

Our Kitchen

. . . and will go on these chairs . . .

. . . around a round, dark-stained wood table (more about that later).

I’m seriously on the fence.  I’m kind of leaning towards the Chipper fabric (#3) or Ellis in Flamingo (#1), but I’m also being wooed by the indoor/outdoor qualities of the Lenox in Horizon (#2).  But I could definitely use some help – which fabric would you choose, and why?
