Nautical Accents for Kids Rooms
I've got two design finds that will turn a child's room from drab to ship shape. I spotted this Guidecraft Pirate Treasure Chest at a trade show this year. When you pair it with my other suggestions you're well on your way to keeping the little captains in your family happy.
The toy chest ($138.95) is a great storage solution and all you'll need to do is buy some navy striped sheets for the crib or bed and you've got a fun themed room that won't cost you a fortune.

Design finds #40 and #39.
