Baby Pickle's Room

We're having a baby!  Which has turned my mind towards decorating a baby's room, of  course. There's so much out there, I've been overwhelmed in a good way.  Here's what I know:
1. I don't like most pastel colors, I'm more a bright colored type person.  (think color wheel, primary colors etc). 
2. Most baby room themes don't appeal to me personally, I'm more intrigued by color and various graphics as a theme. 
3. The room is painted grey so I knew I'd have to have some exciting things on the walls to make the room feel like a 'kids' room.
Before/during/after pictures of the nursery to come and more awesome things that we're making/buying for pickle!  Here are a few of the things I've thought of, seen, gotten, thought about getting, or are on my list! Enjoy!

No this is not our nursery. :)  Just a cool nursery photo I found on Pinterest.  Love the idea of hanging ABC flash cards.  I'm also a big fan of this IKEA shelf filled with bright colored toys, books, bright colored bins etc. 
For the flash cards, I stumbled across this amazing illustrator!  Lorena Siminovich, check her out, I love everything she does! 
My mom and I are busy like bees, her crocheting these multi-colored balls and me wrapping hoops in yarn.  I hope it turns out as amazing as this mobile!  Thanks screamymimi23 for the inspiration, one of the most unique mobiles I've seen. 
Designed by JHill Design, I love this brightly colored animal alphabet canvas print! 
Charlie Harper's prints I think fit right into the bright theme of the room, thanks sis for introducing me to his illustrations!

  3. I have an idea for hanging your mobile that worked for autumn's. I used fishing line. It's clear and durable and gives that floating in the air effect. I love that mobile and want to make one for baby #2. Can I come help with Leigh too? :) I love all of your ideas. :)
