I am nesting in the extreme AND completely indecisive right now. I need to make decisions before I cry or go insane.
So. Nursery. Walls are grey. Curtains are this fabric:
Crib is white, crib skirt is this fabric:
Dresser will be this from Ikea:
Pillows/accents in this fabric:
Ordered this mobile:
So, obviously there's kind of a loose sun/rain/cloud theme. Anyway, I'm being ridiculously indecisive about nursery art and I need help. I want to bring in some mustard yellow/gold accents to brighten it up.
What do you think of the following options?
A:
B:
C (would get the colors custom adjusted to navy shades):
D:
E:
I'd probably want to do some combination of these, as it's a pretty big room and we have a lot of wall space to fill. FWIW, I'm okay with some words, but I don't want the whole wall to look like a book. I have seriously reached the ends of Etsy trying to find stuff. I'm also open to completely other suggestions--I love monograms, so that kind of stuff would be good too.

I like the yellow/gold accent ideas...very cheerful. Could you get some gold/yellow throw pillows for your glider/chair/recliner? I like B and D for the art. I'm partial to navy too as you'll all see in a few weeks when baby suite is ready to show everyone:) You've got a very cute theme!!!
It looks like it is going to be adorable. I think I would go with both As as well as B if it were up to me. I would probably switch up the knobs on the blue Hemnes dresser, either in a shade of gold or mustard yellow. I found mine on Amazon, but Anthropologie has a nice selection and so does Etsy. You could also find some way to work a cute pair of yellow rainboots in the mix.
My DD goes by your E option and it's hell in the summer! I think that A is pretty and I like "you are my sunshine" themed prints. The rainy one might be almost too gloomy for my taste when added to the other rain accents.
So cute! I love A a lot. And D would add a great burst of color. You definitely need to post pictures when you're done!
We're using some yellow accents in our nursery as well. We have a yellow and white pattern on the glider/recliner and we're going with this fun yellow lamp:
Just an idea if you need a table lamp. It's more of a sunny yellow though not mustard. Otherwise PBK has the same style but in navy on sale right now.

I love this lamp, where is it from if you don't mind me asking?
On a whim, I went to JoAnn Fabric today and got two 10 by 10 canvases, a 16 by 16 canvas, a bunch of yellow and mustard buttons, and this gorgeous fabric I found. I made it into a button monogram and it looks really cute! Tagging @kcpokergal because I know you liked the kelly green idea.
I also got two mustard yellow storage bins for the nursery, and impulse bought a yard of this fabric for pillows. I'm not sure it will work, but if not it's fine and I'll hoard it for something else.

Sorry for completely missing this notification! The lamp is Robert Abbey Delta ceramic table lamp in Sunset Yellow from Lamps Plus. They have the most color options. Shades of Light has the same style in a few different colors and Pottery Barn Kids has a navy version only on clearance right now. I thought about buying the cheaper PBK one and spray painting it but I wasn't sure how well that would stick to glazed ceramic and decided for the price I should get something that will last as it's a bit of a splurge. My reasoning is I could use some table lamps in a few other rooms and I like the shape and color of this. It doesn't scream baby so I can easily use it elsewhere in the future. I ordered this but it hasn't come in yet. I'll let you know how it looks in person when I get it. HTH!

Ohh I like the night stand Brie! What made you get the white dresser instead of blue? We have that ikea dresser for dd, and I've been thinking if this baby is a boy I will get it in blue. I think I want a nautical theme
