I need ideas! I don't want shelves or a gallery wall (doing a gallery wall above the changing table already) and I'm not a huge fan of decals.....what else is there?
The long side of our crib is against the middle of the wall.

We have a mobile. I'm not a fan of anything framed above the crib because if risk if falling into crib and injuring babe.

We have a decal but we considered just wood or paper mache letters above there, maybe inside a frame or maybe not.

We have these prints. We will likely have to move the bottom row or crib as LO gets older

@Tidybee: I thought about doing her name but....we don't have one yet....that's a whole other post...
@sapphire: that's what I worry about! We had three framed prints above LO#1's crib and they were velcro'd and earthquake-proofed within their lives and it was a pain...it still made me nervous!

ETA...just found these on PBK....cute? Or not?
We have the same curtains as in the picture...but our walls are a neutral tan color. And our crib is espresso.

@Ginabean3: super cute!!
But also, don't worry about the name! We didn't even know the sex...and the baby wasn't in her crib from the start anyway. We got it when she was about 2 months old...

@Ginabean3: So cute! I'd be all over those if they matched the theme of our nursery. Instead, I'll be painting a monogram.

My daughter has a framed caricature of her from a fair last summer. My son has a framed sketch drawn by a coworker's wife, who is an illustrator.

@Ginabean3: We are doing puppy prints from etsy but how about a wooden letter, name, or monogram? Or a mirror?

@Tanjowen: etsy! I can get you the seller name if you want. They were kind of a hassle to apply because there were so many

@blackbird: I'd love the sellers name I love it - not too over the top but just the right touch. I could see it being a labor of love though, ha.

@blackbird: so cute and affordable!!!
@wrkbrk: I like the look of a mirror but I'm terrified that it would detach somehow and fall into the crib!
@Ms. RV: love the monogram idea...but alas we have no name yet....and I really don't want to have to decorate after baby comes!
Thanks for all the suggestions ladies and for attaching pictures! You guys are the best!!

Handpainted alphabet. I was so sad when we moved and it got painted over.

I have a large decal that matches the prints that I have. I was going to put prints over the crib but DH was concerned about them falling so we only did the decal!

@Ginabean3: I love these! especially if they twirl (they probably don't but that would be amazing )

Stenciled an accent wall behind the crib. I was too nervous to hang anything!

We hung paper lanterns in our old house. I haven't rehung them since we moved.

We have a windsock that was from the baby shower hanging over the crib and on the wall we have the banner from the baby shower.

We have dot decals and a ribbon mobile. I live in "earthquake country", aka California, so I never hang anything heavy over the bed.

A garland from lovegarlands on Etsy. I'm moving it to my office and ordering a canvas from her newborn photos to replace it. I love the garland but we have tons of windows, a door and 2 closets in her room so I have very little wall space.

We did wooden letters from joanns that I painted to match her dresser
