Rustic log cabin style baby nursery room with homemade wooden crib

The rustic nursery decor ideas (especially the homemade wooden baby crib) featured in pictures of this baby boy's room appear to be right at home in a hunting lodge or a log cabin when, in fact, that is not the case at all!



Plans for the rustic wooden baby crib here



You all may be surprised to learn that this room, with its exposed log ceiling beams and the homemade Mission style crib constructed of reclaimed wood, is not sitting smack dab in the middle of a forest or in a wilderness setting at all!



Rustic Nursery Décor




This room is a beautiful example of how to decorate and create a peaceful oasis where parents can escape from the busy day-to-day world to enjoy their child.

The exposed log beams form a grid pattern on the baby's nursery ceiling giving the space an older look with character that usually comes with the passing of time. Careful planning by the decorator paired with the parents unique baby crib plans fast-forwarded the aging process in a big way.

One of the features that stands out in the room is the cowhide area rug that adds a distinctive western touch to the space.



Remove the bird decorations, add a few horseshoes and VOILA, a cowboy nursery! Hang a trophy buck on the wall surrounded by rifles and a hunting lodge nursery theme emerges.

Rustic Baby Mobiles to Make Yourself or Buy


The wooden birds of the crib mobile that flutter directly in baby's line of sight seem to have escaped from the open doors of the wooden birdcages.

Rustic Wooden Birdcages

A trio of bamboo birdcages suspended in a corner of the room lighten the substantial presence of the distressed wood ceiling beams and nursery furniture.

The birds perched on the top are similar in color to the wood of the cages. If more color was desired; this would have been the perfect opportunity to explore possibilities.



Another means of expanding the color scheme in a rustic nursery would be the addition of a colorful, vintage quilt. The parents of this baby were obviously going for a more sophisticated (ala Restoration Hardware?) look with varying shades of brown preventing the earthy color palette from becoming too dark or heavy.
The bird wall decals positioned to the side of the baby mobile give the display a three dimensional feel.

Choose a Rustic Theme That You Love
by: Wholesale Log Homes Inc.

I've learned that there are many different nursery themes out there suitable to rustic designs.

My thought are that it's important that you pick one based on a color, activity or style that you love that you will enjoy living with for the next few years and if you plan carefully, even longer possibly past the toddler stage!

Great room for a baby boy
by: Anonymous

Very nice! We are finally expecting a baby boy after two beautiful girls and I'm due this month.

We had lots of stuff for the nursery but it was all obviously for a girl. The husband wanted this room to be ALL BOY and wanted to do a wilderness, hunting outdoor-sy nursery theme and I wanted an airplane or aviation theme. Since we couldn't agree; we've done nothing and are running way behind schedule.

I understood that after the girls that he wants a nursery that is more sophisticated but couldn't wrap my head around a room filled with hunting trophies and weaponry and our funds are limited.

This photo finally put us on the right track! I ADORE that crib and am looking for plans right now to get something similar built FAST!

I love this website and am so happy that I found it just in time.
