Nursery Plans!

While looking for the pictures for my nursery I have started to formulate some ALL NEW ideas in my head... so just be warned this may not be the last "Nursery Plans" post! Also, I should mention that today we learned that miss Piper is going to love spicy foods! Before I got pregnant I couldn't handle the spiciness of Hot Cheetos but I ate some today and couldn't eat shovel them into my mouth fast enough. I think she's taking the "Sugar and Spice" title a little too literally...

ANYWAY, here is my nursery plan! To be honest I got a lot of my inspiration from the Baby Garvin blog. I swear I'm not a creepy stalker... she's just brilliant! My color scheme is gray and yellow, very gender neutral. Don't get me wrong, I love pink and I expect her to have plenty of pink in her room as well, but I want her room to be relaxing and happy and I would like it to grow with her as she gets older. I just don't see her (read:myself) loving pink walls for very long.

So here are my little pictures of inspiration, just imagine my color scheme instead of the ones in the pictures :)
here are the colors!
I loved the website I made that palette at: colourlovers.com. It was so easy to use, and much better than looking for a pre-made palette!
This is from the littlebabygarvin.blogspot.com blog that I'm apparently a super-fan of.
I love the pom-poms, I would make them in light and dark gray and yellow. 
The letters inspired me to do Piper's name above her crib as well, but with a different spin.


This is similar to the one before, but it has my greys and yellows. I also think I like that there are fewer pom poms in the corner.
I found this picture on Pinterest, but it was linked to projectnursery.com

This was another projectnursery.com find!
Those are definitely my colors, and I love the name hanging from ribbons. My big "original" idea is to paint the name with silver glitter and hang it from ribbons. I don't want too many patterns everywhere, that can be overstimulating for a baby.

So there you have it! I am set on a white crib, light gray walls, and a darker gray dresser. We have an old dresser that I'm attempting to refurbish and customize. So far I've sanded off maybe 1/10th of it... so we will see how that goes! If you have any DIY tricks that will help me, please let me know!

Anyway, hope you're enjoying the blog so far! I will update soon :)
