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!

I’d probably use it for home decor. There is actually a picture I’m thinking of right now that I have had my eye on.
Now that I’m married, we definitely need a cute holiday card this winter!
I just rearranged my second bedroom and have a ton of wall space that really really needs to be filled. Or I also have a very bare looking wall in my bathroom (although i’m not sure about art in a room with a shower).
The print looks perfect! And that’s an awesome give away! I love looking at the Minted website. If I won $200 there I would probably lean towards home decor!
I love custom prints and special pieces. I would love to use the money towards home decor!
I just ordered my son’s birth announcement and a print for his nursery from minted last week! Would love the credit to order holiday cards!!
I would def use it for holiday cards since it will be our first Christmas with a little one!!
P.s – that print is just the cutest!!
I would use the credit towards holiday cards and other stationery! Minted is the best!
My husband and I are currently house hunting and the thing I’m most excited about decorating is my home office. I would love to this to use for some office decor prints! Minted is one of my favorites!

Definitely home decor! Love their colors and patterns.
We just moved into our house and really need some home decor! I would love to have unique pieces to fill our home.
I love the print you picked to put above the changing table!
I would definitely use it towards home decor. So many great options!
I would love some new prints for my bedroom, great stuff!
I would use it on my baby’s nursery! Haven’t started decorating it yet so maybe this would inspire me!
How cool! We moved recently, and the space we are in now is a bit bigger than the spaces we’ve been in previously- we definitely have some empty walls to fill. I’d love to use Minted to do that!
I love the print you chose!! I am expecting a baby girl in December and I would love to choose something similar for her nursery!!!
I have been drooling over that exact animal world map for our new baby’s nursery – winning a gift card to buy it would be awesome! Thanks for the chance!
pillows or fabric!
I would love to add new prints to our home!
We are having our second baby in October and moving in September so I would love to do some combination of birth and moving announcements.
Christmas cards! Is it weird that I already started planning them?
I love their prints and would love some new home decor!!!
I would get that exact world map! I am just 6 weeks pregnant, but that is exactly our style and would love to have it in our nursery!
Thank you / birth announcement! I just had my baby girl 10 days ago
I love the map print! What a cute idea and it adds an educational component too 🙂 I would like either home decor or stationary.
Holiday cards! I love sending Christmas cards!
Ooh I love minted! I’m in the middle of moving to a new place, so I’d use it to get some fun art prints!
I’m torn between a holiday card or home decor! Either way, it would be awesome!
I would definitely use it towards prints for our nursery. Thanks for the idea! I’m going to check out their prints now! 🙂
I could easily spend $200 on home decor : ) My new apartment still needs some sprucing up!
I would definitely use it for wall art. Some of our walls are still pretty bare since moving from our tiny rental to our first home. I’ve actually been scoping out some of the beautiful pre-framed artwork there.
I’m moving into a new apartment with my soon to be husband (17 days!!), so I would definitely use it for a print to hang in our apartment. Love the one you chose!
i love the print you chose! i have been eyeing some of minted’s artwork and would love to use the credit for a print in our dining room.
I would LOVE to use it for home decor. I’ve had bare walls in my living room since I moved a year and a half ago because I can’t find anything I love to hang! Thanks so much!
I would use it towards home decor! My walls are pretty empty!
Home decor! We just bought a house and some walls are bare and need some love!
I absolutely LOVE that print! What a great choice! If I won this giveaway I would buy some holiday cards 🙂 or save the date cards if they have them since I am planning our wedding!
That print is ADORABLE! I bought an apartment in November, and I still have NOTHING on the walls. I’d use it for some wall art!
I would save it for our holiday photos this year! The animal map is adorable, Julie!
I am constantly looking for original stationary – a hand written thank you note is underrated and everyone loves receiving snail mail!
would use it to print more pictures of my furry baby 😉
I would also choose a print – I am moving soon and looking for new home decor!
Oh what a great giveaway!!! I would use the minted giveaway on wedding invitations or stationary!
I would use the gift card to buy wall décor for my kids bedrooms.
I am looking to decorate our new baby’s room as well. I need whimsical art work!
I would use it for Holiday Cards!!! This will be the first year, we send them out! I am so excited to show off my little girl!!!
home decor, please!
I’m due with a baby girl in December and would love to find some cute prints for the nursery that we have just started planning!
I love minted! They have the most beautiful everything so it would be tough to choose, but I think I’d start with some decorations for my daughter’s bare-walled playroom!
My fiance and I are getting married next summer and I would love to hang a print in the home we’re buying together!
