Orange & Aqua Nursery Inspiration


Here are a few images inspiring me today. Clockwise from left: (1) Blueprint's modern baby shower; (2) Amy Atlas's orange & aqua dessert bar; (3) orange staircase from Canadian House & Home; (4) Binth Alphabet poster; (5) Leslie Klotz's serene coastal bedroom (and that awesome quilt); (6) fabrics: Serena & Lily's orange seersucker, Thomas Paul's zinnia in turquoise and Thomas Paul's Aviary in tangerine; (7) Miss James's darling baby girl (and that orange & white striped outfit and sheet!); (8) Massucco Warner Miller's cozy reading nook; and (10) Kristen Hutchins's nursery.

LOVE them! I half expected to see a picture of my own orange rocker! How egocentric of me! HAHA! But seriously, so freaking cute. All of them!

Averill!!! Congratulations!!!! I'm so sorry I'm behind the times, just saw your post about how you guys are expecting! So happy for you. And glad you made it through the first trimester safely and fairly well (no puking=awesome)! Love the orange and blue nursery palette...regardless, you will make that room gorgeous! I've been so behind in blogging this summer and especially the past month. Thanks so much for your well wishes about Maura...being a mom is wonderful, you're going to love it:)

Love the reading nook ;-)
Also the colors. Can't wait!!!!!

Susie @ Maddie G Designs said...

Oh, it is going to be awesome...love the color combo. Funny, I just yesterday ordered a sample of the aviary in maize to see if it would remotely go with my color scheme for our nursery. And, you know I love the moldings on the nursery you posted! Cannot wait to see how your vision evolves.

Averill you must use this! Too cute! Seriously! And I see a cute DIY mobile in that first picture! I used the same hoop to make the mobile for my nephews nursery!

Kitty said...

OMG I haven't been by in awhile, Averill! Congratulations are in order! So happy for you! XO Kitty

Janell @ House of Fifty said...

This is a wonderful and unexpected color combination for a nursery. I just saw someone the other day posting this color combination as Halloween decor inspiration...now that just may inspire me to decorate for the holidays, and most certainly a nursery, if I had the opportunity! Janell

Karen said...

Great combination. Hope you have the time of your life decorating the nursery for you little guy or girl.

Kate Coveny Hood said...

Loved these last two color posts. I'm a big aqua fan and orange makes for such a cheerful pairing. Perfect for a nursery!

Sanity Fair said...

I had forgotten about Blueprint magazine! I remember this baby shower - really cute.
So is this the nursery plan? :) Great colors. Can't wait to see what you end up doing!

First time on your blog. I LOVE IT!
And I love these inspiration for an orange and aqua nursery. Definitely one of my favorite color combinations. I'm actually redoing my dining room in a similar color palette.

Congrats on expecting!
