Navy Nursery



After going to Leslie Sinclair's book signing at Boxwood last week I haven't been able to stop thinking about maybe painting Tbou's nursery Navy Blue. Boxwood throws good parties. And they always 'dress' the shop to the nines for them. One of the walls/vignettes they changed for the party included a wall painted in Farrow & Ball's "Black Blue". It was to die for. I've become obsessed and I can't stop thinking about it. I need it in my house. Then I thought, ooo, maybe I could paint the nursery that color. But is that too goth for a little baby? Even with lots of gold/mirror and white? Or maybe it will promote lots of sleeping being so dark? Ahh. Decisions Decisions. Maybe I should just keep that one in my back pocket for our next house? What do y'all think?

Go for it!! Such a great color! I'm planning on using the same color on just one wall in my upcoming bathroom reno - maybe you could do an accent wall in the nursery instead of the whole room and see if you like it!

It is probably pretty dark where s/he is right now...
