Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Baby Girl Cactus Theme Nursery

March 12, 2020 by Katie Haller

Baby girl cactus theme nursery decor ideas
I have a confession to make.  I am really bad at decorating.  I know what I like when I see it, but I don’t know how to make it all work and flow together.  That’s why when people started asking me if I had a theme picked out for our new baby girl’s nursery I didn’t know what to say.  I hadn’t even thought of it yet.

It was pretty easy when I had Jack because I knew I wanted my theme to be airplanes.  With his dad being a pilot, it only made sense to go with the airplane theme.  His nursery was very simple, but it was cute and he ended up getting lots of airplane clothes and decor.  For colors I went with navy, gray and green.  I hadn’t ever really thought about what colors or a theme for a baby girl though.

I love pink, but I wasn’t sure what other colors would go with pink.  I knew I didn’t want it to be too pink.  It wasn’t until I was at Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago that I saw a display for a southwestern girl theme room.  The display was light pink and green with cactus, flowers, and palm leaves.  I fell in love with the display and decided to use it as my baby girl’s nursery inspiration.  Pink and green are my 2 favorite colors and I used them as my wedding colors when I got married, so it’s perfect to incorporate them into a baby’s room.  I also love the southwestern theme, because I fell in love with the southwest desert after living in Las Vegas for 4 years.  Why not bring that back for my Michigan baby?
I haven’t bought anything yet.  I’m still in the planning stages, but here are some of the accessories and decor I have my eye out for while planning out our baby girl’s nursery.

Cactus Lamp

Clothing Size Dividers

Wall Art Prints

Paper Flower Wall Decorations
Organizing Bins
Changing Pad Cover
Crib Sheet

Cactus Name Sign

Cactus Humidifier


Cactus Floral Blanket


Mini Succulent Plants

This spring I’m hoping to get into full nesting mode and get baby girl’s nursery all set up.  I hope to share some of my finds as I go along.  Follow me on Instagram to see how the progress goes.

Planning outfits for a cruises cruise can be so much fun and I can’t resist a good theme night! Each cruise is different, but these were the theme nights from my 3-night Royal Caribbean last year. 

Make sure you check your itinerary to see if your cruise has any theme nights planned!

Happy Mother’s Day!! 💕 Today I am truly embracing this day and remembering how much I always wanted to be a mom! 

I recently came across a journal entry I wrote 10 years ago on Mother’s Day—right after my second miscarriage. I wrote that I was ready to be a mom, but I was so scared and worried about our future. I didn’t know when and if it would actually happen. 

One month later, I was pregnant with my son.

And now here I am, ten years later—tired, busy, deeply grateful, and fully embracing this season I once wanted so so bad! 

To every mom today—in the waiting, in the chaos, or missing the days that flew by—I see you. We are all in this together! 💕
