I don’t get the time to do a lot of actual design work in my daily life, as evidenced by my master bedroom, bathroom, basement and guest bathroom, which all look like we just moved in. But the very least a baby can do is motivate you to get at least ONE more room done in a nine month period.
I wanted Oliver’s room to be light, playful, not too babyish, and reminiscent of vintage national park posters. I wanted it to have the elements of a little boy’s adventure fantasy, but also feel modern and clean. Since it’s been several months, a lot of my sources might be discontinued, so early apologies for that!

Since the woodland theme was so prominent this last Christmas, I took full advantage and used quite a few Christmas decorations, like the deer head ornament above for super inexpensive decor. When you’re planning a room or a thematic party (Margot’s first birthday was bird themed and since it was in March, we used a ton of egg decorations out for Easter), keep your eyes open in seasonal decor – especially after the holiday, when it’s clearance!

Hope you enjoyed Ollie’s room! At some point we’ll step back even further in time and show Margot’s nursery from our home in Atlanta. For now, I have to put said adventurer into said bed. Good night!
Having been to you old house, I know firsthand how talented you are! This room is AMAZING! Glad you started this blog. Can’t wait to share it! 🙂
awesome!
[…] Two birthday parties to emulate this week. “Wild and Free” looks a lot like O’s nurseryand “Geometric” could easily be for any age or either […]
This is so wonderful!
Hello! I love your nursery. I’m trying to do a similar theme for my little baby due in July and I’m calling it “Happy Little Camper”. I was wondering if you had any information about where you got the Camper Garland? I know you said it was table decorations from a baby shower but do they remember where they got it? I absolutely adore that garland and have been trying to find something like it but nothing seems to compare to that adorable garland!! I would appreciate any additional information you could give!!
Thank you,
Dani
