Re: Wall above crib

when our team green baby is born -- we'll put their name above it most likely, along with some nursery art.

We have a beautiful large tree decal. Too bad my 17mo has never slept in there. Lol

Re: Wall above crib

We plan on putting his name up, my SIL wants to make us a custom sign. I kind of like the idea of a wall quote that says "dreams really do come true" but ultimately I'd rather see his name up there.

Re: Wall above crib

We ordered a decal from an Etsy Vendor that had DD's name and a baby owl on it. So cute! We moved and had to leave it behind, I almost cried!

Re: Wall above crib

I saw this on Pinterest and loved it. Also found a website that you can get the letters for a great price. Any size and you can choose from a ton of fonts. Also would be cute to put pictures in or a quote. Adds a little something to just a blank wall.

Above dd's crib we had her name. When this baby is born we will do the same.

You could always do a quote on one of the other walls. In dd's room her name is over her bed and on another wall we have the quote, "first we had each other, then we had you, now we have everything"

Scrapbook wall art


We're doing this. With everything on sale, all 9 blocks with scrapbook paper only cost like $30.
Obv. we're choosing paper that would look good with the nursery colors.

Re: Wall above crib

I found a company that makes decals that look like scripted hand painting... they go on in words and they are very easy to peel off if, down the road, you want to change it up.

Anyone who knows me knows that I am a DIE HARD Toby Keith fan -- once DH vetoed naming the baby Toby Keith Chat Icon JK! But seriously, I said to DH, we have to incorporate him somehow. So, I figured the nicest way without having a Red Solo Cup nightlight was to take my favorite song by him - people associate his music with fun, drinking, and partying but he actually has much more serious and deep music - all he wrote himself, and one of his favorites (and mine) is called Dream Walking. He named his ranch after that song. And one of the quotes is "There's a thin line between dreams and memories..."

I wanted to get that, in a nice script, written out and put it on the wall above the crib. The person doing it is going to be a scroll-like design on either side and make it very pretty, like it was hand painted on the wall.

I ordered from here before -- for our entry way in our first home. It said "Home ~ the place your story begins" and people always thought it was painted on and it was actually an adhesive word placed on the wall.

Anyway, that's our plan. I'm going to order it soon - when I do, and when I get the nursery done, I'll def post pics.

I love this idea. Can you tell me the company that does the wall decal? I was listening to Bob Dylan's "Forever Young" the other day and thought of adding some of the lyrics to the nursery. That song has always stuck with me. Thanks!

Yes, this is the one I have used before, link below... you can click: Create Your Own Design.

http://www.mywalldecals.com/16.html

... I'm going with the FREEBOOTER font

Then, I like to use this site for easy viewing to see how what you want to do might turn out Chat Icon Even though the first site allows you to do it also, I liked this format to play around with it.
