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!

New wall art for my new place!
I would us it for home decor in my new house!
That print is SO cute! I’d definitely use it for cards – my girlfriends used minted for my bridal shower invites, and I’d love to use them to send out wedding/holiday photos!
i would get some great prints for my bathrooms/bedrooms 🙂
I just finished my guest bathroom and the walls are so bare!!
I would use it for home decor for my office!
My Dad’s 90th birthday rolls around in January. My brother, sister and I want to plan a memorable party for this occasion. I would love to have the chance to select just the right party invitations from Minted!
I love the animal map print! so sweet. i wish we could have used minted when we were decorating our nursery. we made all the artwork/decorations though, and it was a fun experience looking back. we did end up using minted for our birth announcements though and they turned out lovely. if i won, i’d use the credit towards adding a couple pieces of artwork to our guest room (4 very empty white walls!). 🙂
I love that animal print for Chase’s nursery!
I would use Minted for either holiday cards this year or a home decor piece. I love their original artwork!
I would use it to buy holiday cards! I missed the boat last year as we were in the middle of a big move, so I’m looking forward to sending Christmas cards this year 🙂
I would love to win this! I have been eyeing several pieces from Minted for my living room!
I would love to win this gift card for home decor! I just bought a house and need a few more pieces to make it complete!
I love that print!! I would love to try Minted for our holiday cards this year 🙂
I LOVE Minted!! I bought stationary from them to announce the name of our baby boy 🙂 I would use the gift card towards our first Christmas card as a family of three!! We welcomed our son, Wright, on August 3rd… not too long after Chase was born!
oh my. That map is ADORABLE!!! I just love your nursery!
I love the print! I would use the gift card towards my sister and sister in law who are both expecting babies:)
Home décor for the house I’m hoping to buy in the next year 🙂
I have been eyeing the constellation prints. I would grab up a few of those!
I would use the print for my son’s room. Him and I just moved into our own place and I would love to let him pick something he would like to add to personalize his bedroom. He’s only 2 (almost three) but I’m betting he would go with something animal, or sports, related.
I would love to use the $200 credit on some prints for my home! My husband and I are re-doing our bedroom and guest bedroom and both could use some TLC!
Definitely some home decor
I would use the $200 for Home Decor and Holiday Cards. We recently bought are first home so we have a lot of decorating to do. 🙂 And my fiance and I are getting married 1 month from today so we will want to send our first holiday card as a married couple this Christmas.
Thanks for another great Giveaway!
Brittney
I too am due to have a baby soon! I was 8-9 weeks behind you, and now I have < 6 weeks to go! So I would do the same thing with the gift certificate as you did–complete the nursery with a nice big print over the dresser/changing table. Thanks for the great giveaway!
I haven’t announced that I’m expecting my second to many people. This would be a great opportunity for me to send announcement cards out!

Nursery décor. Baby #3 is coming in November.
That is the CUTEST print! I would use the credit to order our Christmas cards this year!
We are expecting a baby in January! I’ve already been looking at Minted for birth announcement ideas! I also love your idea of using their wall art. I didn’t know they offered regular sized prints!
