I recently came across a cute set of viking bookends, and they inspired me to create a viking-themed nursery. This collection is filled with little details that will spark the imagination and hopefully lead to a lifelong love of adventure. — Vanessa from Silly Eagle Books
Viking Ship Metal Art Bookends by Knob Creek Metal Arts - $62.99Every bookshelf needs a set of eye-catching bookends. I love the way this pair sparks the imagination.
Oeuf Rhea Crib, Walnut - $670Some cribs are bulky, but this one looks light and airy with its slender slats. I think it has an elegant, masculine look.
Indoor-Outdoor Coastal Living I-O Rectangle Dark Blue Area Rug - $195The wave pattern on this rug is graphic and modern, and still appealing to a child. I can see a little boy sitting here and playing with toy boats across his very own ocean.Buy on Houzz
Stuffed Viking Warrior Gray Beard Pillow Plush by Saint Angel Productions - $40This guy pulls double duty as decor and toy. Old Graybeard is sure to become a favorite!
Viking Mobile - $50.50I have a bird mobile from this company and love it. The slightest bit of movement in the air makes the pieces turn, so it’s always gently and ever-so-slightly spinning.Buy on Houzz
‘Vikings Go Fishing’ Limited Edition Print by Cuddlefish Press - $35Like a page from a storybook, this art will inspire the imagination. I love the colors and the way the image draws you in and keeps you looking at all the different underwater creatures.
Viking Nursery Prints Instant Downloads by Moss + Twig, Set of 4 - $20This is a charming series. All four look good together, but each is cute enough to stand on its own — great if you have space for just one.
Chevron and On Rug, Dark Blue - $179This is another good ocean-wave-inspired rug. It would easily transition into an older kids’ room theme too.
Thar She Glows Table Lamp - $99This carved wooden whale light is perfect for late-night feedings.
Fine Prints Curtain Panel, Blue Fish - $39From far away this pattern just looks like a geometric design, but when you look closer, you see tiny fish! These curtains are whimsical and fun and perfect for a seafaring theme.
Little Twigs Wall Mirror - $219I love the rustic quality of this mirror and can see it working in so many different rooms, not just a nursery.
Out to Sea in Blue Crib Sheet - $54Maps are one of my favorite accessories, especially in nurseries. I love the idea of a map-print sheet for the crib to go with this adventurous viking theme.
Original Luxe Nursery Glider - $1,150The neutral color of this glider makes it easy to transition it from the nursery to another room when baby gets older.
Ivory Mongolian Lamb Faux Fur Signature Series Throw Blanket - $179A faux-fur blanket would be a cozy addition to the glider. It’s perfect for snuggling!
Linen Pillow Cover, Viking Ship by Saage - $6.50I think these simple lines could be inspiration for a DIY project — if you’re the crafting type. I like this pillow cover for a rocking chair.
Child Viking Helmet - $5.04I’d place this on top of a pile of books. When baby grows old enough to play dress-up, this helmet will be ready and waiting for imaginary adventures!
Viking Longboat - $34.99This toy also works perfectly as decor until the day baby is old enough to play with it.
How to Be a Viking, Audible Audio Edition - $3.95This would be a great addition to the kids’ library. I like that it’s an audio edition and can be played during “nap” time.
Viking Ships at Sunrise - $4.49The Magic Tree House books are favorites with kids everywhere. This one is a perfect addition to any young viking’s nursery.
V Is for Viking: A Minnesota Alphabet - $10.83I would put this book face out on a bookshelf and let the cover act as art.
