Shabby Chic Ballerina Nursery

by Trisha Baker

I bought the baby bedding for our shabby chic ballerina nursery online for just $80. From that point forward I just carried out the color scheme laid out in the pink and green baby bedding set that.

The design above the white chair rail on the wall was painted in shades of pink using a damask stencil pattern to make the pink portion of the wall in my shabby chic ballerina nursery more decorative and interesting.

I gave the white metal nursery chandelier shabby chic lamp shades by decorating plain white mini-shades with dried pink roses. This gave the light fixture some color and matched the crib bedding beautifully.

I love the ballet and arranged Degas prints throughout the nursery. I planned to use a washable pink bath rug beside the crib but found it was too small. So I sewed the green border bring the rectangle up to size.

I gave the distressed dresser that I planned to use in my shabby chic ballerina nursery an update by replacing the painted wooden knobs with pink crystal drawer pulls.

Then I made my own Roman Shade for the windows that matched the baby bedding and reupholstered the rocking chair's stool with the same fabric.
