Chocolate brown nursery ideas

So we are doing a white chair rail in the nursery. The lower 1/2 will be painted chocolate brown. The upper 1/2 will be painted once Chat Icon gets here. It'll either be Chat Icon baby blue or Chat Icon lavender.

I need some inspiration! I would like to buy gender neutral decorations (lamp, window treatments, etc.) beforehand.

Anyone have any ideas?Chat Icon

You should check out the restoration hardware baby and child site.

Re: Chocolate brown nursery ideas

I am doing the chocolate brown and blue nursery theme as well. I got my inspiration from Restoration Hardware and actually registered there. I absolutely adore the bedding and color schemes for boys and girls. Since I am expecting a boy I am going for the cuddle plush cloud blue dog theme and the polka dots/solids/stripes in the cloud bedding. I actually ordered my paint from there as well and DH did the nursery this weekend and it came out amazing! Check out their website. Also, they have a store in NYC that is awesome! I went there last week and was in love Chat Icon !!! I have also gotten lucky and got some good buys at the outlet in Riverhead, but that is hit or miss!!!!

I am using RH too but the petal collection. The paint looks awesome on the wall. However, I noticed that a lot of the coordinating stuff doesn't match when they claim that it does. The linen petal drapes don't match the linen petal chair and ottoman. Some petal is peach and some is pink. Anyway, I think I sorted it out by returning some stuff. But RH customer service is really bad if you have a problem. I purchased everything from them. I got the paint, lamp, crib, mattress, chair, ottoman, drapes, dress, armoire, and all of the bedding. I would really recommend that if you order from RH that you go to the NYC store to see the stuff in person.

Re: Chocolate brown nursery ideas

I have a chocolate brown and pink room for my DD...I actually painted 3/4 of the wall brown and the top 1/4 plus the ceiling light pink. I took my inspiration from a nursery that Vern Yip did on Deserving Design. We have chocolate brown (darker than the wall color) silk curtains with cream sheers. I have a pink chandelier, but a modern light fixture would look really cool. I also have large pink frames on the brown that I framed my DD's "art" in. I think you could do a sage green accent color because that would look good with either blue or lavender. I have sage green and lavender in my other DD's room and it looks good together.

That's so funny....the boys alphabet wall nursery is my exact inspiration. But of course the bedding and furniture have been discontinued.
