There are many dog themed mobiles you will find on Etsy and these 3 are my absolute favs! These mobiles remind me of the classic ‘Oh, the Places You’ll Go’ by Dr. Seuss, capturing that sense of adventure and wonder. I can just imagine my little one, eyes wide open, dreaming of all the places they’ll explore with their furry best friend by their side. The hot air balloon is so delightfully dreamy, and the gold stars on the Dreamy Dog Baby Mobile are simply magical. It’s a perfect way to inspire your baby’s imagination and fill the nursery with a sense of possibility and joy.

 

Texture Wall Art

I’m absolutely obsessed with these textured wall art pieces from West Elm Kids! They’re unlike anything I’ve seen for a nursery, bringing a unique blend of texture and fun into the space. The intricate details and rich textures make these pieces more than just wall art; they’re statement pieces that add depth and personality to the room. Incorporating texture is such a fantastic way to add details into your nursery. They’re perfect for adding a touch of modern flair while keeping the room cozy and inviting.

 

Night Light

For those 2 a.m. wake-up sessions, a nightlight that both you and your baby will love is essential. The Bee Like Kids ‘Adorable Puppy Lamp’ is just the thing. This nightlight brings the light-hearted energy of a playful pup right into your nursery decor. It’s not only functional, providing a soft, comforting glow during those nighttime feedings or diaper changes, but it also fits perfectly with any nursery theme. Whether you place it on a bedside table, dresser, or even hang it on the wall, this lamp is sure to bring a smile to your face every time you see it. It’s a little touch of warmth and comfort that makes those sleepless nights a bit more bearable.
