When I was pregnant with my first child I had so much fun researching nursery decor and putting together the perfect baby nursery. In fact, I found putting a nursery together to be a delight for all three of my kids.
This year there are a few really fun nursery decor trends that almost make me want to have another baby. Keep an eye on these favorites:

These gorgeous paper flowers turn a fairly regular baby girl nursery into the most beautiful, feminine, calming nursery I've ever seen. I just adore it! Crepe paper flowers can add a lot of depth and interest to your baby's nursery without breaking the bank.
Here are some Etsy shops that make beautiful paper flowers:
* DreamEventsInPaper, also featured in the nursery above (Etsy, $103.23/set of 12)

* ShopOliposa (Etsy, $119/set of 8)

* DesignWithElegance (Etsy, $67/ set of 5 flowers)

* PaperFlora (Etsy, $195/ set of 9 flowers)
2. Geometric shapes, often all mixed together

It's also easier to find pieces that can grow with your child when you stick to a simple theme like geometric shapes.

3. Adventure /nature
