It's a jungle in here!

Safari Nursery

By Cassie Adams

​

Nursery themes vary far and wide, but safari décor endures as a baby room favorite. 

 

It’s easy to see why.  From snuggly elephants to spunky tigers, an animal theme makes for a darling nursery with a dash of adventure.

 

We teamed up with Virginia-based interior designer Cassie Adams to help you put together a truly special safari nursery.  Drawing on her 12+ years of design experience, Cassie cultivated a list of unique, whimsical products, ranging from a vibrant wooden tiger clock to a subtle elephant laundry hamper.

 

Check out her irresistible picks.
