It may be a wee-bit soon to start on the nursery,
but I can hardly wait!
I
have wanted a girl for quite sometime so I am more then ready to start
getting everything all set up for the nursery. The only problem is I see
so many cute things I want to try, then I end up not being able to make
up my mind!
First
things first, the color of the room. At first I wanted to do something
that would work for both genders but who am I kidding? I can't resist
not doing pink! Therefore I picked my main color of the room.. PINK! But
of course, I needed to add a little more to that.
I loved pink & green..
Loved Pink, white and gray.
And loved pink and blue.
So
I set out to find a crib bedding set in one of those colors. I didn't
have much luck with any of those color but I did find something I loved
even more!
Pink, white and taupe (tan-ish color) with a damask pattern.
Sorry the coloring is kind of hard to see!
And I went ahead and ordered this bedding from
I love it!!
All
of the extras were kind of pricey so instead of buying them I am going
to make my own! :) The website is pretty cool in the fact that you can
order the matching fabric. So I did, which was a lot cheaper! My husband
got me a sewing machine a couple months back and I absolutely love it! I
am so excited to create some new things for the nursery!!
I
am going to make LOTS of pillow, a lamp shade, curtains, a diaper pad
cover and possibly a blanket. (I will put up all the tutorials when I do
make them with the finished project! :)
We are still debating how to paint the nursery.. I am loving strips lately.
But can't decided if I like horizontal or vertical ones better.
We
are also going to redo a dresser we have! Devan wants to build a diaper
changing station on top of it instead of just putting the diaper
changing pad on top, he thinks it will be a little safer. Then we are
going to paint it white to match the crib we picked out!
I also want to make the cute lettering with her name above the crib!
So as you can see we definitely have our work cut out for us! Maybe it is a good idea that I started planning it early!
I will post updates on the nursery as we complete them!!
