Vintage Nursery Decor

I'm all about vintage decor in my house. Curtains, chairs, tables, wall decor, bedroom set, lamps..all of it is vintage. So I am extra passionate about having vintage decor in my son's room too. Adding vintage accessories to your nursery is simple, especially if you have a theme or color scheme. Here are my "must adds" to create the perfect vintage accented nursery.

1. Wall Hangings

- There are tons of fun chalkware pieces that are great for kids rooms and if you're not comfortable with chalkwear there are also great 70s plastic wall hangings (like I have) or wood ones.

 Elephants

 Ballerinas

 Bird Hooks

 Poodles

 Bird & Nest

Bear Wall Hook

2. Lamps

- A fun lamp is a great way to add some character to your nursery. You can go with a figural lamp or just a table lamp in a fun color.

 Giraffe

 Elephant

 Wooden Figures

Horse Lamp

Jack and Jill

3. Book Ends

Kids get a lot of books and you'll probably need a bookshelf eventually but you dont really need a lot of book storage until their first birthday or so..so a set of cute bookends will work great, especially for "special" books that maybe you don't want them to drool all over.

 Elephants

 Kittens

 Unicorns

Seals

4. Blankets

 - Most people have at least one of these made for them by a friend or family member but they're great for photos, nap time and tummy time. Plus buying vintage is cheaper than having one "custom made"

 Blue & Mustard

 Blue & Teal

 Pink Yellow Blue

Pink

5. Toys, Nick Knacks

 - I think its really great to add something to your child's room that you had in your room or you remember playing with.

 Blocks

 Airplane Mobile

 Puzzle

 Pull Wagon

Rocking Horse

There are lots of other ways to add fun vintage details to your nursery like curtains, hangers, lighting or even furniture! Use your imagination.

Sharp Dresser

Yes, Its sad..but my son already has a bigger wardrobe than I do..by a lot. And I may be the kind of mom who documents every outfit he wears in pictures. I'm thinking of doing some "what he wore" posts since he is usually dressed much cuter than I am..eventhough like 90% of his current wardrobe is from Carters. He is going to be big enough soon to start wearing his vintage duds too. I'm very excited for this. Yesterday I even dressed him up in one of the shop tops, he was not very happy with me..but darnit if he didn't look adorable!
