Lottie's Room

K so I'm not pregnant, let's just get that set straight right off the bat. But I do really want a little girl someday & I think about it all the time... what I would name her (Charlotte (Lottie) Claire) how I would dress her... decorate her room... make fun things for her... and if I never get a girl there's a good chance I would adopt one so I can make this room! ;)

I'm thinking pink & orange! I just love this combination..of the pale pink & the tangerine. I also love it with the touches of goldenrod ....*sigh*... And I'm thinking a "woodsy" theme. Not sure why I put quotes around "woodsy"... it just seemed appropriate.

I love this color story...

I bought 1 yard of this awesome vintage wallpaper on etsy as a launching point for future Lottie's nursery. It's even cuter in person. Plus it was $5! A steal! I plan on cropping it most likely (a yard is a lot) and framing it & using it in a picture collage.

This bedding has the right colors but I'm not totally sold on it yet. Not sure about the butterflies.


But I'd really love to incorporate foxes into the mix. No reason in particular... just think they are so cute & they fit the color scheme & the woodsy theme, right?

I love all of these prints. Wouldn't they be cute in the picture collage? Well maybe not ALL of them, but a couple? Which are your favorites?

And a personalized silhouette... I love these. Or maybe just the classic face profile...

I was thinking of making her a little stuffie like this but using the pale pink & tangerine...

or this arctic fox (which kiiinda looks like a deer with a tail)


And maybe I'll make her a soft doll house like this one...


I'll throw in a few fun wooden foxes while I'm at it (however I don't have the tools to make these myself, but if I did I TOTALLY would)

And, of course, I'd have to incorporate some faux bois somewhere.... maybe in a baby blanket? a wall treatment? a rug?

Is it all a bit too much? And maybe I'll hate it by the time little Lottie comes and I may even hate the name Lottie but for now... this is it. And I love it! :)
