I wasn't really looking for a theme for the nursery, but one developed on it's own! This is offically my first nursery purchase for babies room. It's so exciting. :)
1st elephant: I fell in love with the elephant hamper (in a previous post) 2nd elephant: The crib blanket had an applique of an animal. Since I already knew I would be purchasing the hamper I asked if they had an elephant. She said no problem and the elephant 'thing' was becoming a theme! (Not a jungle theme, by the way.)
The ones pictured here, I bought at HomeGoods and they have tons of beautiful ones from India and China. I was excited to find these because it's not easy to find elephants with cute faces. Most of them are strong and mean looking, not really what I was looking to put in babies room.
Significance of the elephant:
They are connected to fertility. The elephant symbolizes wisdom, longevity, power, and strength. Having an elephant statue can bring peace and harmony to your home.
