The nursery got lots of attention this past week with both my mom and my sister in town for our crafty girls week. We refinished the rocker and ottoman Stephen and I found at the thrift shop, put shelves together, filled both the dresser my sister gave us and the closet with lots of clothes and crafted a couple different things to hang on the walls. Brittney was quite the sewing master and made a crib skirt, pillows and the pieces to reupholster the rocker and ottoman. I am so thankful for all their help and love the way everything is coming together.
Before
Some sanding...
Painting...
And reupholstering...
After
We put the shelf together and added a few of our own touches...
The map was one of our cheapest projects. Only $6 for the map and about $4 spent on foam boards, the big map looks perfect on the big empty wall in the room.
I bought a pack of 4 canvases to paint a few pieces of artwork inspired from something I saw on Pinterest. Even Stephen found his inner Picasso to do some painting! We added a few pieces cut out from scrapbook paper and chipboard letters once they were dry.
Putting all this together has been making it all feel that much more real. It's crazy to think that it just 10 more weeks we'll get to show Baby B his new room. Can't wait!
Everything looks sooooo awesome! Katie, you are so amazingly creative & you're already the best mommy ever!
