Peacock room {for the teen in your life}

I have been shocked by the amount of people that have found my site due to them searching "Peacock Nursery."  I created this nursery back in November and daily, see the traffic that it has generated.  It makes me wonder...are there nurseries out there similar to this board?  I'd love to know and see pictures. 

I thought about the peacock 'theme' and wanted to show how it can translate to a teens room too.  Below I created another space with a bit of peacock elements and colors.  I went a softer route this time, pulling in some greys and blue and not so much of the classic peacock blue.  There is still a bit of it in the rug and the peacock print.

I wanted to introduce some other furniture tones.  In this room you see the painted Jenny Lind twin bed, a white weaved hanging chair, wood nightstand and a brass etagere.  I love the idea of the etagere.  Have you all seen this pin floating around Pinterest?

How lovely are those bookshelves?  The best part is they are the Vittsjo bookshelf from Ikea and are only $70 and then were spray painted in a brass finish.  Love a great DIY. 

Do you have a teen in your life that is still living in a little girl room?  Maybe she'd like a redo...peacock themed possibly? =)

Peacock

I was having a mini design block yesterday and asked my facebook readers for their favorite color schemes right now.  One response was Peacock...thanks Lindsay!  I loved this idea, partly because it could go so many directions.  I decided to pull out the jewel tone blues and a few other compliments.  I may do another board and pull more of the purples out.  When I first saw peacock I thought sophisticated...nothing screaming baby. I think many people are realizing that the nursery is just an extension of their entire homes style.  You don't, necessarily, have to have it pastel and nursery rhymes.  That is still a super cute way to go, but isn't for everyone. 

So thanks again for helping with the design block.  Feel free to share a color scheme or theme you are dying to see...I'm always up for another challenge. 

Below are the links to the items that are available for purchase that I used on my design board.  The fun part about these boards is they are a tool, a direction.  Each item you see in any of my design boards doesn't have to be the exact one used in a room.  Instead, it is a way to show you my vision. Then it's shopping time!!
