While we doubt Blake is short on space, if she’s hurting for a little extra room, a wall mounted changing table may come in handy. Rather than fitting in an entirely new piece, simply put one on the walls.
Get creative with shelving. This honeycomb creation is great for looks and storage.
Include some plant life in your nursery. While wee ones won’t be in charge of watering, they can enjoy the fresh feeling it brings to their space.

Go dark. Sometimes a deeper tone can be just a soothing as a soft one.
Play with color! Choose playful shades and scatter them around the room. Sherbet tones make for a cheerful space.
Do you think Blake would go for a DIY mobile? Gold dipped feathers gather to create a compelling over-crib adornment.
Update the traditional rocker. Your rocking chair should not only be comfortable but also stylish. Choose a timeless leather is an exciting shade.
Go all out animal! Pick a theme and really embrace is. If animals are to make an appearance in this space, why not include multiples.

Monogram with flowers. The first letter of baby’s name can be written on the walls in the fun, floral DIY project.
Paint a mountain mural on your crib wall. This artistic representation reminds your young one to always dream big.
Wallpaper the ceiling. Pick a quirky print and apply it to the ceiling instead of the walls for a twist on the traditional usage.
Hang some animal busts on any white walls. While Blake isn’t a renter, if you are, you can always decorate the walls without needing to paint them.
Paint your existing furniture. If you have pieces that are in need of just a little refresh, you can always do it yourself!

Color block your walls! Match two tones together to add interest to any space. Make sure the darker color is the one on the bottom.
You’re due for a new crib! While it may be tempting to reuse the old one, something this sweet can simply not be passed on.
A cactus mural is a great look for any nursery. Apply this wallpaper or paint your own.
