paint colors on the other hand…
i need YOUR feedback! there is a creative standstill going on in our house over which color to paint the nursery.
i had this room picked out as my initial inspiration piece:
then found some fun with the aqua/yellow scheme:
inspiration pieces aside – i’m going for something fun, gender neutral, but not with the traditional “nursery” vibe to it… i’m planning on putting up a white chair rail with the above and below color options of:
the first column is option A = calypso and cote d’azur. the second column is option B = aqua-sphere and tranquil aqua. the last column is option C = hazel and drizzle.
the hubster is leaning more towards option C with the muted/calm nature tones with yellow/terracotta/coral accents, i’m digging option A with the vibrant/joyful under the sea tones using yellow and magenta accents. option B has the same colors as this brochure that i saw in the paint store, but once i got it on our walls it kinda looked more like a rainy day vs happy baby room = out of the running:
option D is to use the upper colors of option A’s paint swatch with yellow and coral/pink accents:
blue bauble and slick blue
so – what do you think?!
should i head back to the drawing board and find a happy medium between option A and option C?
are you digging JC’s choice with option C or are Mel’s wild side with option A?!
then there’s the added twist of option D?
i’ve never had such a hard time picking a paint color before. this is actually the first time ive ever come home with samples to put up on the wall!
decisions… decisions…

I’d have to agree with Jeffy on this one ( there’s a first for everything) 🙂 regardless, little babe will love her nursery no matter what!! 🙂

I love the vibrant with yellow and pink accents! It’s what I am trying for in my home soon.

So far, I’m with Jeff on Option C.

Dont ask me I liked B but I must say A is really you. So I say go for it!

DePa’s 2 cents is a combo of sorts. Aqua top, Slick blue bottom 1/2, white chair rail (I can install if you’d like) and a rug with yellow’s & whites like the 2nd picture.
OBTW if she’s anything like her Mom she’ll change it about 16+++ times by the time she moves to her own place. God bless Jeffy

The blue in my office is called SMOKE and I love it. I know you said no to B, but I like B.
