Nurseries

I got an e-mail the other day from Crate and Barrel advertising a contest sponsored by their sister company, The Land of Nod. The basic concept is that between certain dates anyone can create a wish list on the website and automatically be entered to win that wish list up to $1500. I was stoked about this because I'm all about winning things!

I innocently got on to the site, thinking it would be kids furniture, beds, dressers, etc and I would make a wish list with a twin sized bed or something to furnish a guest room. I quickly discovered this site also has cribs and baby items. So...my wish list consists of a crib and mattress, an adorable organic bassinet with bedding, a car seat, stroller, high chair, some clothing, and a few random items.

NO...we are not expecting!!! But...wouldn't it be nice to have these things free of charge??? Anyway, I got on a nursery kick and just had to post these!

This one I loved because it's a really fresh green, and the lines are A-MAAAAAZ-ING! I adore the light fixture. Also, at first glance, the window looks like wall panels like the ones I have in my living room.

This one is sweet. It's very neutral and could work for boy or girl. I'm a HUGE fan of updating vintage pieces like that chair!

This one is very chic! I think the piece that makes this one stand out is that oversized mirror. Again, this updates a vintage look, from the lace curtains to the crystal chandelier and everything in between. Don't know how safe the space planning is though...look at how close that crib is to the window treatments and changing table/dresser...hmmmmmm...

This one is quite a fairy tale suite! The little one who gets this room is sure to be a little princess. I LOVE the bows on the crib and that all the large furniture pieces have been distressed and finished with a metallic paint.

And finally...perfection. THIS is what my girls' nursery will look like. Doesn't it remind you of Disney's Lady and the Tramp???
