Nursery

Ta-Da!! The nursery is finally complete!

First we had a closet organizer installed because I was pregnant and well, obsessed with organization!

We, I mean, my husband, put up wainscoting** (said with a British accent...) and a chair rail


Then since we had a boy, I quickly texted Ingrid, at Sugar Snap Kids, to make my boy bedding that I chosen! I was set on having a very gender specific room and had chosen both boy and girl fabric. She was awesome, I texted her December 3rd and I believe I had all the bedding by mid-January.

We then picked out our paint colors, added some decals to the walls, and ordered a roman shade to cover the window!

Here are the final results!

The big decal! Thanks to my neighbor Marissa for helping me decide where to put all the stickers.

The green wall

The window covering and decal (a gift from my bestie)

and finally my favorite part! The bedding!! We love it!

We love the whales!


She even embroidered his name :)

I think he loves it!

Whew, so that took me 2.5 months to post, I guess I'm not so good at this blogging thing. Stay tuned :)
