Super cheap and easy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660529 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:14:22 +0000 photojane 1660529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: I love this too. You could find some different coordinating fabrics in your color scheme. Super easy, super cute. </p> [attach=1879/14/n68vzz.480x320.fabric-filled-embroidery-hoops.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660527 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:13:22 +0000 Cole 1660527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the bedding! It's so sweet! I think curtains and wall art are what I would do. Maybe a cute pillow on the glider too. Baskets for the changing table would be nice at some point and a good place to add some color or texture but I think curtains and art would make the most dramatic change. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660524 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:12:40 +0000 LBee 1660524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like option 1 - adding wall art! I think over the crib would be a great place, assuming you aren't doing the letters over it already. I think option 2 is good in theory, but I've never been a huge fan of rugs in all carpet rooms. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660517 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:11:05 +0000 HLK208 1660517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@photojane: good idea about the mobile! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660509 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:09:51 +0000 HLK208 1660509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cole: nothing on the windows (just blinds) - but I think curtains could help!</p> <p>Here's a photo. Ugh, so, so plain - the only wall art is something my mom gave and I'm kind of meh about it </p> [attach=1336/14/n68vsh.600x212.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660467 Tue, 27 May 2014 13:03:10 +0000 photojane 1660467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe a gallery wall, colorful/patterned curtains, lavender lamp shade, and some cute pillows for the glider...?</p> <p>A DIY mobile is an easy, inexpensive way to add color and interest to a nursery too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660404 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:51:41 +0000 Cole 1660404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you post a current photo? Is there anything on the windows?</p> <p>I think I would go for painting the walls and adding wall art. I feel like those two would give the biggest oomph for your money. Curtains might make my list above one of those two though if you don't have any up yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/decorating-nursery-need-ideas#post-1660384 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:46:48 +0000 HLK208 1660384@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD2's nursery is super plain. I'm trying to decide how to spruce it up without spending too much. I have wooden letters that DH spray painted gray and I made lavender fabric flowers for each letter. Other than that, we have lavender crib bedding and that's it.</p> <p>I really don't want to spend more than $200 on the room so here are my options</p> <p>1 - big wall art, lavender lamp shade for lighting and lavender night light (to tie the colors together)</p> <p>2 - area rug in cream and gray and paint the room</p> <p>None of our other rooms are painted (well, contractor beige) since we bought the house a year ago and I wanted the LO's to be old enough to have a say in how they want their bedroom to look. </p> <p>Thoughts? What would make a nursery feel more put together? I'd love to do both but I just don't want to spend that much! </p>
