Getting Crafty

Do you remember my post about that adorable nursery photo featured on The Little Green Notebook?

Well, I have an Anthropologie gift card (score) and was looking to purchase an addition to my wardrobe since they are having a 25% off already reduced sale items (another score).

I came across something remarkably similar to the zebra in the nursery photo. It is a bit on the pricey side, but would add a huge punch to a nursery. If you can't splurge on the item, you can try to do something similar using a paper mache (sorry, lacking diacritics) technique.

I LOVE The Little Green Notebook

At Harvard Law School, Steve met and befriended the Komenda family. Jenny Komenda is a fabulous blogger, designer, and one very cool, New York City mommy. Her blog never ceases to amaze me. Visit today's post.

This photo was taken from the posting. This nursery is absolutely lovely. The ceiling is to die for! I love the modern, animal-friendly touches throughout the room, and it is so baby friendly. Most people choose pastels and other neutral colors for a nursery, but research shows that bright colors (and black and white) are even better!
