Look! A 1970's Nursery

We opened up this photograph on Flickr because we loved the colors and natural simplicity of this nursery. It turns out it's from Decorating Ideas for Modern Living published in the early 1970's. Timeless.

Here's another photo from the same source circa 1970's. Despite the plaid bedding, this too hasn't aged too poorly. Thanks for the photos jinxy515!

I really like the first photo. It look so calming and peaceful with all of the natural light although I suppose it would be difficult for nap time.
