I’m decorating the baby’s room based on the super cute Eames hang-it-all. The colors are bright yet “gender neutral”, and, like I said, it’s just super cute and I need an excuse to own it. We’ve decided to stick with the birch Oeuf crib that we have because we prefer the look of the lighter wood. We also already have the Eames arm shell rocker in yellow with birch rockers and the Nani Marquina Topissimo rug in fuchsia that we’ll use in his room. We just need to find an appropriate dresser now. We like the Oeuf dresser for its matchiness, but it is kinda expensive, even with my discount. Shannon and Jim have this dresser in yellow that I really like, though I’m worried that the yellow rocker will clash with it. I’ll have to check the colors before I consider it too seriously. We also have to decide on an appropriate paint color. We (or I, mostly) were considering this wallpaper, but I think we’ll stick with paint. I kinda like the idea of painting one entire wall in chalkboard paint and then using a projector to help us draw a cute design on the wall, since neither of us are very artistically inclined. But I just came up with that idea as I was typing this so I’ll have to run it past Daryn.
