I love creating a home for the men in my life. Good thing, because I have 3 good men living under my roof…and they love to live in a warm and inviting place. I try to keep things classic, if a bit updated and a tiny modern…and I try not to be too girly. I have my blush pink office (with the desk my hubby built, more on that soooon!), but…other than that this is the approximate color scheme for our house. I've really used gray rather than the khaki color, but this is the palette I started out with. I have used variants of each of these 5 shades in our home so far. Navy, marigold, white, gray, and rust. So, it is natural that I would carry this palette into Twig3's room.
This little illustration is the basis for the design of Twig3's nursery. I use the term "design" and "nursery" loosely, because we've never been about overly stylized and expensive baby rooms. A crib, a rocker, a diaper pail and I'm set. I've learnt that I seem to change diapers on the floor and I hang baby clothes as opposed to folding them.
paint color for top 1/3 of room
board and batten (like above pic) for the bottom 2/3rds
We may paint the board and batten a dove gray to make it less stark, but we'll see when the time comes. As for now, Twig3 is at home in my belly…which is a good thing considering his room is still full of unpacked boxes from our move 5 months ago! We have some work to do in the next 15 weeks!!
