Homemade rustic baby crib made using logs for a baby boy's western cowboy baby nursery theme room.

A reader shared photos of a rustic baby nursery with a handmade-looking crib that has a natural, log-style look. This post is about how the room looks and feels, not how anything was built.

The nursery uses warm wood colors and a western style, similar to what you’ll see in these baby boy nursery pictures and other rooms inspired by a cowboy baby nursery theme.
