cheersyallimport: Nancy's Nursery Inspiration

It's obvious that I'm having the time of my life conjuring up a nursery for our best girl, baby Nancy. Today I'm spilling the beans on my ideas. I cannot wait to see how it comes together through the next several months. (And I really can't wait to see her in it come April!)

Source Links + Plans...

Wall Color: SW Sea Salt | When we bought and painted our home, I had my mom pick out the color of the 2nd bedroom. Knowing we would convert it to a nursery at some point, and I didn't want to have to repaint it. Mom nailed it with this color. I am in love! And, yes, total perks of being the daughter of a very talented interior designer. (Thanks, mommy!!!)

Heart Pillow | Ordered this weekend in the biggest size it can come! (24"x24") Nancy's nursery will have a full size white iron bed in it too, and this will be the big, ol' happy accent pillow on that bed. This adds to my throw pillow obsession. But I mean, this pillow is practically perfection. ;)

Lovely Pillow | I got this precious needlepoint pillow last Christmas. I love it so much, I even got one for my mum-in-law! English folks use the word "lovely" in their vernacular a lot more than we do, so that sweet little words reminds me of our family across the pond. Though I've enjoyed this pillow in our room for the past year, I can't help but think it's even more perfect for Nancy's nursery.

Gold Dot Crib Skirt | I mentioned last week that Hope and Mom were top secret elves and tracked this down for me before it became unavailable. They rock. They bought the very last one in the southeeast off the showroom floor!!! It was a happy surprise Christmas gift to open. I swoon for the frilly girlishness of the tulle fabric!

Gold Herringbone Fabric | The crib bumper will be covered in this! Even though the order was custom, bumpers seem to be expensive anyway...so it didn't cost any more than one from a retailer would have been. (And it helped to have a coupon code to add to the additonal sale that was going on when we ordered it! Woop!)

Slipcovered Swivel Glider | I obviously love white. And when I had a veteran mama tell me about the perks of bleach + being able to wash/dry clean because of a slipcover, I was sold. This is a purchase I want to make once and reuse through all of our future babies. Potential upkeep and quality were clearly key factors! We are ordering the chair through a family friend -- be sure to go check out Lee Industries!

Minky Heart Crochet Blanket | Oh gosh, y'all. I can't tell you how excited I am about this sweet blanket. I can't wait to hang it over her crib, throw it on her in the stroller and around her in her carseat...yep, this blanket has me daydreaming. I happened upon a this new Etsy shop after Christmas, and I couldn't be more excited to receive Nancy's first blanket. I have been dreaming of a heart crochet blanket for her for months now. And the fact that this shop adds the more baby friendly minky fabric on the back!?! Y'all have got to check it out. Like, now. I promise you wanna see a close up of this precious blanket goodness right this moment!! Nancy's crochet blanket will be cream with a pink heart and super comfy light pink rose swirl minky fabric on the back. EEEEEE! Bless it!!! More details and a shop feature to come in weeks ahead...!

Rectangle Gold Frames | Just a reference for the 8x10 frames I'll have on the wooden hutch in her nursery. Remember it from the guest room? Truth be told, I get my frames from Dollar Tree. Boom.

Printables (DIY using Design Love Fest background + PicMonkey) | I made a set of 6 of these with little sayings inspired by Pinterest. I chose this background since it goes perfectly with the nursery's color scheme. I included the meaning of "grace" (pictured above) because Nancy in fact means "grace."

Abstract Beach Art (Inspiration) | We love art in our little family. I want some sort of abstract art hanging above her crib pulling together all of our nursery colors and framed in gold. Oh so lovely for our little lady and something I hope she can keep forever.

Crib | Just used this image for inspiration. We are using a white hand-me-down crib form a family friend! (Thanks Sally!!!!! :))

Dresser | Inspiration...did you see that price tag? Puh-lease. I am doing my best Craigslist stalking. I'm determined to fancy up a Craigslist find with gold ring pulls! I want to play off the bedside table I snagged from Marshalls and jazzed up a few weeks ago.

Gold Bedside Lamps | More inspiration...I want gold but I don't love these. (But if you do I have seen some like this pair at Home Goods!) I'm on the hunt at HomeGoods/TJMaxx/Marshalls! And I'm having total buyer's remorse over these lamps (scroll down to #4) that I should've snagged when they were available at Marshalls. Ugh! Kicking myself. So if you see them anywhere, holler at me.

Gold Letters | Inspiration. I love RH, but I don't love their price tags. I want to spell out "NANCY" in gold. I am going to order and spray paint these form Hobby Lobby once they restock the letter Y. So yeah...Hobby Lobby, I've been waiting. When are you going to restock that Y?!

Faux Sheepskin Rug | Planning on snagging one or two of these from Ikea when I'm back in Charlotte! I want to throw one over the rocker for some added texture.

Cheers to daydreaming and slowly seeing things all come together!
