Argyle Nursery Progress - Decoration & Accessories

When I first designed this nursery my vision involved mixing and matching patterns to create an exciting and stimulating environment for baby.  However, now as I piece the elements together in a visualization rendering I am wondering if all the pattern is OVER stimulation.  What do you think?

How to Make Your wall look like a Sweater

 

 

And for your (or our?) amusement, we made a little Time Lapse Video of the whole DIY Argyle wall process.  Amazing how fast and easy things look when edited down to 35 seconds.  Thanks to Jay Lee for putting it together and adding the music.  

Sneak Peak: Preppy Nursery Design

After seeing my post of inspiration for a Preppy Alligator Nursery, my friend fell in love with the idea of a Preppy Nursery, complete with Argyle Wall for her baby boy.  I designed this room idea for her.

Then she asked me if I could paint the wall.  errr, um, ahhhh, ahem.
Design is one thing.  Execute in a REAL ROOM?!! I design sets.  If I mess up, no one has to live with the consequences.  This child will grow up in this room. That's a lot of pressure.

However, my sputtering did not deter my friend's confidence in me. So, this week I'm in Toronto, and I'm attempting to practice what I preach blog.  Armed with a measuring tape, laser level and paint, I will attempt to turn an ordinary wall into a sock! (that's what my mom says it looks like!) Stay tuned for pics AND video of the results.
