Yellow, Aqua & Red Baby Nursery!

Caroline Armelle's blog Armelle has some fun creative ideas including this sweet, eclectic nursery for her little baby girl. My favorite item is the $5 crib picked up at a yard sale. Caroline spent hours priming and spraying yellow paint (13 cans), she also gave it 2 top coats. Tons of work - but she loves the results. This terrific nursery was done on a budget with several items re-purposed. Way to go! The wall color is Benjamin Moore's Robin's Nest (color 618)

Adding to the room decor is Caroline's little girl's blessing dress.

  3. Those colors are truly great! I was getting SO sick of yellow, and then this cool crisp lemon yellow shows up next to turquioses and greys, and all of a sudden I love it again! Pretty!

  9. Where did you get the fabric for the curtains and chair? Was it already made or was it homemade?

  11. The room itself is absolutely gorgous, but I think in reality is is highly unacceptable to buy secondhand cribs and anything else that could be a hazard if it was made before today's very specific safety codes, and with it being used, you can never be quite certain. I would feel better spending the extra cash!

    One that is safe for children? My concern is that
    Baby's chew on railings...I have wanted to paint a crib but haven't for
    This reason
