Karrey and anyone interested about Sadie's Nursery

So we wanted to go beachy, but we have found it to be SOOO difficult!

We are still painting the walls a light purple (to match the bed set we are getting... http://www.target.com/Sumersault-Julia-piece-Crib-Set-Multicolor/dp/B002IGEW8U/ref=in_de_detail-item-display), but it is floral as you can see, but not so beachy. I wanted something girly-ish, and all the beach/ocean stuff was really blue and green and not too cute!  We may do little things here and there to add the beach in, but we don't want it to be TOOO overwhelming and a mish mosh of stuff!

I am sad it can't be so beachy, but maybe when she is a little older we will revamp...We shall see!

I love how you called me bump a beachy bump LOL

  • That bedding is beautiful! I think some starfish, sand dollars, and seahorses could be sprinkeled around the room...a bit of a land and sea thing. So cute!

  • Awww I love what you have picked and I also love purple nurseries.  I can't wait to see it all together.  You will be able to do so much with that print. 
  • I think the nursery theme is cute!  I like purple way more than I like pink so I'm with you there.  I bet by the time she is a tot you can give her the beachy room but for now what you have picked out is super cute.

     I hadn't seen those, but we wanted to go with purple, but the 1st 2 are SUPER DEE DUPER cute!  We just wanted purple more than anything really!

  • Thanks girls!  We can definitely change it up in the future for a more beach theme, but like I mentioned before purple was how we wanted to go since most girls have Pink this and pink that and a lot more pink here and there!

  • love it! purple & brown are so great together. It won't be a problem to add beachy accessories, most beachy things are neutral colors anyway!

    I may have forgotten to mention that MINOR detail LOL

  • That purple is just sweet as it can be!! Great choice!!
  • I love the bedding you picked out.  I think it will look great in the purple nursery and you definitely be able to add beachy things in later.  Can't wait to see it all finished.

    Ditto!  It's super cute!  And I'm sure you will be able to add in beach-y touches here and there.  Can't wait to see how it all comes together!

  • Love the bedding! 

    As someone who is all about the beach, my first thought was that mermaids would go great with what you've picked out.  Maybe some mermaid prints that are girly and have lots of colors, including purple, in them.  Plus mermaids would carry over well from baby to older child.

    Roxy makes a ton of beach, girly room stuff too.

    I'm thinking of mermaid stuff like this:  http://www.art.com/products/p13104283-sa-i2307006/sarah-battle-mermaid.htm?sorig=cat&sorigid=7575&dimvals=7575&ui=31c12de198274fad8ab4ed65274211ab
