Also from BHG: Baby Gone Mod

"Avoiding babyish pastels and choosing bright, stimulating colors creates an unthemed place that can change as the tiny resident grows into his or her own interests. An easy-to-replicate colorful grid wall like this sets off the overhead plywood art hung from the ceiling." bhg.com

Great inspiration for a fresh new nursery look! Thanks for posting, Better Homes and Gardens!

Tray Liner Clean-up Tip from Better Homes and Gardens

Q. It takes so much time and effort to wash paint trays -- is there a good alternative?

Brian Santos: Slide a metal roller tray into a heavy-duty tall plastic kitchen trash bag, then press the bag into the tray to create a liner. Keep the plastic bag in place with a few pieces of blue painter's tape.

To store paint in the tray overnight, seal it by dampening a large towel and draping it over the covered tray. The bag liner makes cleanup a cinch; simply turn the bag inside out and toss it in the trash.
