Beatrix Potter Baby Nursery Theme

I painted the walls of our Beatrix Potter baby nursery theme a pale shade of blue to create a smooth, clean surface in preparation for the murals that I knew that I wanted to paint on the baby's walls as well as to match the fabric of our Beatrix Potter baby bedding.

After choosing my favorite pictures of Flopsy, Mopsy and Peter Cottontail from the Beatrix Potter storybooks, I chose the locations where I thought the artwork would look best and started to draw the basic outlines of the designs.


I used a color palette that closely resembled Miss Potter's illustrations because it was very important to me to maintain the feeling of sweetness and innocence of the watercolor paintings.

After I finished hand painting all the murals in my Beatrix Potter baby nursery theme. We installed a new ceiling fan and my mother in law bought the fabric and made the window treatments. I love this room and I hope that you enjoy the pictures and my baby nursery decorating ideas half as much as I enjoyed painting them.
