I am creeping up on 32 weeks and finally feeling a little better about our nursery progress. We have our dresser, crib (minus the mattress), changing table, and our glider is on the way. All that is left to do now are my sewing projects and accessorizing. My vision has changed a little bit, however, because I could not bring myself to paint the dresser we got. I was going to go with more natural accents (wicker baskets and a log for a side table) but now I am thinking I will go with canvas baskets (I like this one from Anthropologie, but it may be too small) and a white night stand for a side table. Thoughts or ideas on this? What would go well with the dresser?
Dresser - I Crib - White Jenny Lind Crib from Amazon. Crib Skirt Fabric - CC1 Pastel Mint Green fabric from Silk and More Etsy Shop. This is where I bought robes for my bridesmaids and I just loved the fabric! Shikha agreed to sell me the fabric for $7 a yard. Rug - Home Decorators Collection 5'X8' WhiteFaux Sheepskin Rug from Amazon. |
Changing Table - I bought this off Craigslist as well. Dave stripped all of the nasty orange and green paint off and I painted it white. I plan on adding in some baskets for storage. |
Other plans include a gallery wall above the dresser. I just love this one because it incorporates a mirror and the white frames bring everything together. I also think white frames will pop nicely on the light gray walls. I am also a fan of the small flower vases on the dresser - I might try to find some of those as well. As far as what is going in the frames, I am thinking our maternity photos (which we are doing in a couple weeks) and maybe some sayings. I am not too sure about that yet.
I am debating whether or not I want to get some letters to spell out her name on the wall above the crib. Thoughts on this? I do kind of like fabric letters and could use my left over fabric for it. Or should I do a mobile? Or both?
