Maia's Nursery

First off, I have to say that its possible I am a psychic mother who foretold her children's personalities simply in the design of their rooms

OR

The decor of the room of a tiny little infant who doesn't even sleep in it yet let alone care about the color palette has the power to shape and mold them into the humans they are to become

OR

a child's room has no impact on their personality whatsoever and I'm delusional and should stop trying to make things out of nothing.



One of those.


Regardless, if you will recall, Boston's room was (is) decorated in lime green, black and white with pops of orange. Prints are all polka dots and stripes. (I don't think I ever actually blogged his entire room. Shame. You can get an idea of it here.) (Or you can just be facebook friends with me, because I document things much better on there, apparently.)  Anyway, its a loud, fun, bright, crazy room and I seriously love every inch of it. Its just so him. (Loud. Fun. Crazy. If a room could be described  as exhausting maybe it's a little of that too.)

When I started designing Maia's room in my head, I wanted something much more calm, cool, and peaceful. (You see where I'm going with this, right?! PSYCHIC!)

I ended up going with a color palette of grey, pink and tangerine orange. I used owls in several areas of decorating as well.

Its funny...because as much as I LOVE Boston's room...I LOVE Maia's just as much. It is just as much her as his is him. I love the clean simplicity of it all, the bright whites and fun pinks, and cute little owls.
