I've been imagining Noah's nursery for several years now, and although he doesn't officially have his own room, he will one day soon! Right now he shares a space with us in a side area of our room. Living in the City requires sacrificing space & oftentimes people will share their space with their children for a several months until they can figure out another (more-convenient) arrangement.
In the next couple of months I hope to CREATE a few digital-nurseries & then choose, execute & start working on it in REAL LIFE. That's my plan. I've come up with option number (1) below, which includes some of my own new ABSTRACT art. Hopefully as he grows, he'll be inspired to incorporate his own art into the space. All in all, I wanted the room to feel modern, creative with bright pops of color! One other feature I really want to add is the black- striped teepee from Land Of Nod. I can already picture myself reading to him inside this cozy little teepee !
Another decor item I'm also considering is a neon sign.... in a blue-ish tone. I love the effect the neon lighting gives off in a space. It adds such a cool effect! However, I haven't decided what I'd like the neon to say.....hmmmm. I remember wanting to have a child for as long as I can remember. Adopting Noah was a dream come true, and he is so loved. But I'm stuck on what the sign should say.... Any ideas??? Maybe his name, Noah? Or maybe something else like 'dreams come true' or "You are Loved".
I'm currently looking at a company called Endeavour Neon for the sign, so we shall see. Books are so prominent in my home, I want them to be a BIG part of Noah's life. So, I figure start adding them to his space & that should hopefully generate interest in them! I can literally keep going on decor...but you get the idea. Stay tuned for another nursery down the line!
Curious....what do you think the neon should say?
