About in the same way the name-planning came relatively easily, so did the nursery themeing. Granted, we haven't got started on too much when it comes to the nursery except for clearing it (mostly) out and having the walls painted (thanks to some chance of foresight when we bought and subsequently painted the house more than a year and a half ago)... but somewhere, early in the game, the idea for the colors and concept came to me. I was sitting, in fact, on this very same couch e-mailing my best friends with the idea... "what about an oh-the-places-you'll-go (as in, travel-like) theme?"
Which paired perfectly with the already existing Benjamin Moore Waterfall of the room and our love for travel... and books! Dr. Seuss is classic and I plan for Virginia to have the motherload of children's books. BUT. I didn't want it to be too Dr. Seuss-y, if you know what I mean? So leave it to colors, printed quotes from the book, and maybe a few hot air baloons (oh, and hopefully the full Dr. Seuss collection)... and then a good dose of maps, globes, possibly a few vintage suitcases and you've got our nursery.
Can you see it?
If not, check out my Pinterest Board for the Nursery that I've been collecting ideas in for the last, oh... (according to Pinterest) 15 weeks (which is only a week after learning we were pregnant - how's that for planning?!):
