A Japanese themed nursery room

2 May

After months of looking for a house to buy we have finally had an offer accepted on a really nice place. Although it will take a little while for us to be able to move in, I have already started thinking about the decor in some of the rooms. It will be so nice to finally move out of rented accommodation and be able to put our own personal touches on a place.

The most exciting room to decorate will definitely be my daughter’s nursery and I am sure it will come as no surprise that the theme of her room is going to be Japan!

Here are some of the Japan inspired items I am considering for her room, what do you think?

Kokeshi picture

I love this kokeshi doll picture, available to purchase from MossyJojo on Etsy it can be personalised with your child’s name.

Kokeshi quilt

Now that my daughter is over a year old she can start having a quilt in her cot so I am considering this beautiful kokeshi doll quilt from BearHugBabyQuilts on Etsy.

Cherry blossom wallpaper

Although wallpapering a whole room with this would be a bit over the top, I am considering using this gorgeous cherry blossom wall paper from John Lewis on one wall of the room.

Cherry blossom light switch

If I don’t go with the cherry blossom wallpaper, I could use this cherry blossom light switch cover instead. Available from PrettyKiku on Etsy.

Tori gate wall art

Probably a little austere for a girls nursery but I do like the idea of having a tori gate on my wall! Available to purchase from CityZenDesign on Etsy.

Japan nursery wall art

I love this Penguin and Peeps wall art with the Japanese maple leaf in the background. Available to purchase from Subarashii.

    Hi Georgina

    I really enjoyed reading this post. Good idea to give names of companies where the things can be purchased…I look forward to seeing Bella in her Inspired by Japan bedroom and hope the move will not be too long.

      Hi Mia,

      Thanks for your comment, I do love so many of your designs I couldn’t decide which one to feature in the post, the kokeshi doll picture or the origami crane. Thanks for the link to your Facebook page, I have just liked it! Georgina
