Our nursery is complete!
I previously shared a nursery tour on the blog back in July but the look was a bit incomplete thanks to some bare spots on the wall. The place above our changing table was perhaps the most glaringly bare and though I shopped around my usual places in hopes of stumbling upon a cute baby-friendly print to frame, I kept coming up short.
Minted to the rescue!
I’ve used Minted in the past for our holiday cards last year and bridal shower and bachelorette party invitations for two of my girlfriends, so when the company reached out to me to offer to create birth announcement cards for us, my interest piqued because I already loved the site from my past experiences. The only issue? I didn’t really care to send out birth announcements (though I’m sure Chase will be all over our holiday card this year), but when I shared some of my woes about finding the perfect print for our nursery with the Minted team, they kindly offered to send me a print from their beautiful Minted Art collection for Chase’s bedroom.
It took me quite a while to select the perfect print. I went back and forth so many times and fell in love with more than a small handful of the prints featured on the site. All of the designs featured on Minted are sourced through their community of independent artists through ongoing design competitions, so there are a myriad of artistic styles to choose from to fit your personal preferences.
I tend to gravitate toward soft colors and calming prints and in the end I selected an adorable map of the world speckled with animals for a whimsical feel for our nursery.
The Animal World Map is available in two different colors and I immediately chose the khaki and blue/green color combination, knowing it would fit best with the decor we currently had in our nursery.
Within a few hours of the print arriving on our doorstep, we put it on display and our nursery was complete! I love it so much and owe a big thank you to Minted for such a lovely gift!

Oh how amazing! The Michigan Foil Map and Bachelorette Party Invites 🙂

I would love to get some cute prints for my college apartment!
Cute stuff! I would use the credit towards holiday cards or home decor! Love your print, Julie! 🙂
I’d get an art print! I love the colors of Organism 4.
I’m planning to *finally* order our wedding invitation suites from Minted this weekend, so that $200 credit would go a loooong way!!! Thanks, Julie!
I would definitely get some new home décor! 🙂
Gallery wall in my bedroom!
Home decor! Thanks for the giveaway!
Hello!!
I would use the credit for stationary for our wedding coming up in a few months. We are paying for everything ourselves so the $200 credit would help with some of the cost. Love your blog! Just got a co-worker turned onto it. 😀
Home décor! 🙂
Their home decor stuff looks so great! Love that they’re supporting smaller artists 🙂
I’d definitely use it for home decor/Christmas cards. Every year my husband and I keep saying we’ll put up more art in our home and send out Christmas cards, but we still haven’t gotten around to it! $200 would go a long ways towards us being able to tick off those to-do boxes 🙂
I recently got engaged on August 15th and I would use this gift for décor in our home or wedding.
I had no idea they had home decor! I loooove all their throw pillows!
I’m due to have my baby in 4 weeks and can’t find any good nursery art! I would love this!
I would love to order holiday cards and some home decor! Last year I mailed out holiday cards from the store and while they were cute, I felt like they weren’t unique enough!
i’m due in December. The Petite Measurements Birth Announcement is adorable!
My best friend is expecting a baby girl in a month, and I’d love to get her something for the nursery!
I am long over due for an apartment decoration, this would be so great!
Stationary for a gift to my twin sister who is getting married, with her new monogram 🙂
I’m having my first baby this winter, and I’ve already got my eye on a few neutral birth announcements! Typing in potential names on the cards has helped me visualize if they are right or not 🙂
We just had a baby boy last week and would love to use the gift card on birth announcements 🙂 Yay for little baby boys 🙂
This is awesome! I need some prints for my kitchen and bathroom 🙂
Love Minted! I’d use it for our holiday cards this year. Between the birth of my daughter in May and the return of my Husband from a 7 month long deployment in July, it’s been a big year for our family!
loooove minted! We ordered the birth announcements for our twins earlier this year from there! I’d use the credit towards Christmas cards. Never too early to think about Christmas!!
I just moved in wth my boyfriend and am in desperate need of some pretty things to hang on the blank walls!
I would love to use it to make holiday cards! I just got married this year and cant wait to send out cards from our new little family 🙂
I would put it towards Christmas cards this year!
I would use it for birth announcements/holiday cards! I plan to combine the two this year
Love the animal map! My sister is pregnant with her second so I’d like to get a similar print for their nursery. Also, We bought a house earlier this year and we are still working on getting the interior decorated. I would love to get some art for our bare walls!
Home decor. My walls are embarrassingly bare.
I will definitely use the $200 for throw pillows. I’m addicted!
Ahh love that print so much!
My friend Kristina has been a lifesaver so many times since I had my baby in June. She has made us several meals, brought me diaper rash cream and breast pads, and just been a great listener when I needed to vent during the first few hormonal weeks after bringing a baby home. Kristina is engaged to be married next August. I am planning her bridal shower and would use the $200 towards beautiful invites to her shower.
Since we never found out the gender during my pregnancy, I would LOVE to order some gender appropriate decorations for my little guys nursery! As well as invitations for his first birthday!
I just had a baby and just moved into the dream home that my husband and I built! I would LOVE to finish the baby’s room with some funky art as well as fill our bare, re-of-the-house walls with some unique pieces!
I would love the money to purchase some home decor/prints to jazz up the empty walls in our new home!
I would probably use it for our holiday cards!
My first baby is due in October so I’d use it for baby announcements/thank you cards!
Love this giveaway! We had our little girl a couple of days before you, and would love to use this for Christmas cards!
I’m getting married a month from now! I used minted for my save the dates and wedding invitations. I didn’t realize that they also do prints too. I would love to use them to order a few of the last minute stuff for our wedding (placecards, menus, and programs) as well as thank you cards!!
I am getting married in the fall so maybe cute Thank You cards!
I love how you feature different (unknown to me) companies! You have introduced me (us) to so many different businesses (Blue Apron, White Plum, Minted, etc) and I’ve loved every one–so thank you for that! Upon searching the Minted website, I’ve got to say the pillows really caught my eye!
I would get a nursery print. My son was born June 10 🙂
Home decor for sure!
Love the print! I would use the gift card for home decor. I bought my condo almost a year ago and still have some finishing touches to add.
We are expecting and I would LOVE to use this gift card in our nursery too! Cute prints!!
I would use it for Thank you’s and upcoming Christmas Cards! We just had a little one in March and I’ve been looking into getting new thank you’s done to have around when we get gifts for him!
Christmas cards! I am going to send some with pictures for the first time ever so this would be great!!
I’m due with my first baby this Friday and would love to use the credit towards birth announcements and decor!!
