Antique Vintage Baby Nursery Room part 1 – Retro Home Decor

So we promised the best picks for a vintage style nursery and here they are. This vintage home decorating idea, comes from see lovely films during the Belle Epoque and wanting to create something similar.

To get the look of a vintage baby’s room, start with the walls, painting them a natural neutral color, and adding a crackle paint over it in strategic places can help give it a vintage feel. Colors like Behr‘s Parmesan or Cottonseed can give you  the vintage coloring and create the walls of your dreams.

Once you’re done with painting the wall, adding a poster of a picture with an antique feel, helps perpetuate the feeling. A poster print of an antique map or an item used during the late 1800s or Turn of the Century does the trick, and is usually quite inexpensive, the one shown below is currently only $5.

Bring light into the newborn’s room, with a antique vintage lamp or a reproduction. Scour Estate sales in your area to find a genuine antique or for a little less than fifty dollars, try an antique finish lamp such as the one below.

One of the first gifts we think of when a new born arrives is a baby blanket, you’ll be looking for one that has an antique, vintage coloring. This adorable one from Scene Weavers combines beauty, comfort and the right antique style coloring for a Vintage baby nursery.
