Gender Neutral (Color Fabulous) Vintage-Inspired Nursery

candypiecesWho says gender neutral has to be color neutral? Courtney from California has sent in fabulous eye candy photos to put an end to that stereotype! Courtney and her hubby are expecting a new little one and decided not to find out the sex of the baby. But that didn’t prevent Courtney from creating a simply perfect vintage-inspired nursery for a little guy or gal. Here’s a tour in Courtney’s own words…

“Couldn’t resist sharing our vintage nursery for our upcoming arrival. We don’t know if its a Lo-gan [boy name choice] or a Te-gan [girl name choice] so we just call it Baby-gan! In fact, the banner over the crib only has the last three letters filled in, so that I can add the first two when they get here.”

Thanks so much, Courtney, for letting us peek into the special space you’ve created for your new arrival. What a treat!

Thank you for sharing this fun nursery, what a lucky baby. 35 years ago I had the same mobile! For my little ones I framed the animals and hung them in the nursery, now they hang in the playroom.

You have a wonderful store and your blog is inspiring, love all of the vintage inspired items that you share. I only wish I would have found you when I was decorating for my little ones!

Best wishes,
Tammy

This is just fantastic!!Great job!!

WOW!! What a happy place to be! Now THAT is CHARACTER! VERY VERY nice!

I know that this was done a few years ago… but does she have photos of the WHOLE golden-book wall? My nursery is a vintage owl theme but I absolutely love the idea of doing an accent wall like this.
