I got the idea from another bee on here :)</p> <p>@Littlebit: good idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1705383 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:32:42 +0000 Littlebit 1705383@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Ohhh! that's an awesome idea!! I emailed the seller and asked if I could purchase a sample pack of the stars in white and green but didn't even think of just doing it myself! I'll try that tonight. Thank you!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1705373 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:30:39 +0000 Smurfette 1705373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit: I think they might be hard to see. Could you cut out some with paper and tape up there to test it out? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1705367 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:29:28 +0000 Littlebit 1705367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: well we wouldn't be painting the wall again..the wall would stay the light gray color. Do you still think it would look ok? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1705362 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:27:38 +0000 Pancakes 1705362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovelyplum: Love those prints and frames! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1705347 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:23:50 +0000 Smurfette 1705347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit: I think so! If you do the walls dark enough, white stars will so up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1705295 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 13:04:56 +0000 Littlebit 1705295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, so I showed my husband a bunch of ideas and he's on board with doing stars now! This picture is our favorite. I'd like to do the same thing, my only concern is if the white stars would show up enough? Everything else in the nursery is white and it definitely looks good, just wasn't sure if they'd get lost in translation. What do you guys think? I could always do some green and white stars...</p> <p>[attach=3994/14/n7brk8.570x428.stars.jpg]</p> <p>[attach=3994/14/n7brkb.449x600.photo-1.JPG] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1704391 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 07:56:44 +0000 MrsTiz 1704391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: Thank you! The crib was actually DH's when he was a baby and the rocking horse was his granddaddies! We gave it an overhaul, it was solid black and the frame was rusty when we got it so DH and I painted it :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703648 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 17:12:12 +0000 deactivated_account 1703648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: Love it!!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703629 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 16:55:59 +0000 Mae 1703629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here is ours. </p> [attach=4140/14/n7a7lc.600x338.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703606 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 16:34:02 +0000 deactivated_account 1703606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: I love this room! </p> <p>@catlady: I love this room, too!!</p> <p>@MrsTiz: Your classic rocking horse is too much. I'm dying. Is it yours from when you were little? I love this room. Is the crib new or vintage? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703535 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:52:06 +0000 pui 1703535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm actually struggling with this a bit myself! We have a floor bed instead of a crib, but I have no ideas on what to put above it... I think I may do a paper banner of some kind like you posted. I don't think stars are overly girly at all, but they have lots of adorable little garlands on Etsy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703526 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:49:00 +0000 LovelyPlum 1703526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit: I love stars! I don't think it is too girly at all! Then again, you're talking to someone who put a bright pink frame above the crib in a Team Green, gender neutral nursery :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703525 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:48:32 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1703525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: I was planning to do that! I never bought the map and instead had it on J's birthday wishlist- not thinking he'd get it (the amazon wishlists are more reminders for me). My mom got a US map instead. Very thoughtful and I'm happy she did, but I was hoping for a world map. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703524 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:47:39 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1703524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to have an owl decal, but once he was a year old he figured out how to tear it off the wall! Now there isn't anything </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703520 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:45:42 +0000 LovelyPlum 1703520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Framed pages of a Rifle Paper Co. calendar, and a globe from Pottery Barn kids!</p> <p>[attach=3423/14/n7a4c7.600x448.image.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703505 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:39:28 +0000 Meowkers 1703505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Littlebit: I think either paw prints or stars would look great spaced like that. I can see it being just one color or two but in a pattern, (like every other row or something.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1703477 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:30:07 +0000 Littlebit 1703477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Meowkers: LOVE that website! Now I have all sorts of ideas!</p> <p>Was thinking about buying some paw print decals and doing something similar to these pictures but with paw prints instead of ducks/stars...all over the wall, but spaced out similar to the pictures. What do y'all think? Would that look ok? If so, should I do it all white? Or white and green? </p> <p>If not paws, what about stars? Do y'all think stars are too girlish (my husband thinks this)?</p> <p>@looch: I'm liking the idea of doing the alphabet also! Will run these all past my husband.</p> <p>You guys have some gorgeous nurseries! </p> [attach=3994/14/n7a3m7.480x480.d66_4__RubberDuckPack_large.jpg] [attach=3994/14/n7a3m9.480x480.d68_1__ClassicStarPack_large.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1702800 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 12:03:36 +0000 MrsTiz 1702800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Trees! </p> [attach=2456/14/n79u21.401x600.530523_10201843024413760_963407993_n.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1702738 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 11:40:48 +0000 catlady 1702738@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have four baby animal prints from the Animal Print Shop.</p> <p><a href="https://www.theanimalprintshop.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.theanimalprintshop.com/</a> </p> [attach=4623/14/n79t02.399x600.aodell_140323-129.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-above-your-lo-crib-ideas-welcome#post-1702723 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 11:35:28 +0000 StrawberryBee 1702723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a decal (Dumbledore quote).

I made sure they were high enough that she couldn't grab them when standing in the crib. They're still there, above her twin bed. </p> <p>Above this baby's crib is a wall ledge from IKEA. It's also up high.
