After a bit of going back and forth on what to do about the colors of the walls, I finally settled on a wall color. *drumroll* The walls will be Windwood Spring, which is a gorgeous blue color. I know what you may be thinking, "Amy, you love pink, why not do a subtle shade of blush pink because the baby's a girl?" Well, here's my train of thought, I wanted something different and something she could grow with while not being too "nursery like." Perhaps I've been watching too much Sarah Richardson on HGTV, I don't know, but what I do know is that while I want the kitschy turtles and woodland animals, I want a room that I will be comfortable in as well.
The walls at the moment are a pink nightmare consisting of hot pink and pepto-bismol pink. There is no way that I would subject the baby to these colors. I picked out some clothes the other day, and while I will admit they have some hot pink in them, it's not over powering like the room is at the moment.

I am hoping that by going with the blue and using bright fun colors as accents it will help to not only give the room an airy feel, the color scheme will also help to brighten it up and make the space seem larger. Eventually we will be removing the builder standard oak stained white pine moldings and replacing it with white molding and crown molding and painting the window frames white as well.
Next task, finding the perfect chair to turn into a glider with out it looking like the stereotypical cliche nursery glider on a budget.
