Final Babies "R" Us trip = CHECK.
Nursery = CHECK.
Bags packed for hospital = CHECK.
And now we wait. In the meantime, I can share Baby Bob's nursery with you. Here 'tis!
BEFORE we even moved in (it was Chris' office in between, but I don't have pics)...

(Sorry so dark, this was taken on my old camera over 4 years ago & was probably later in the day the way the sun is barely coming in)
...and AFTER...
*Usually I don't like a ceiling fan w/light kit, but we needed both and this light was subtle enough that the electrician and I let it slide.
*Curtains from Urban Outfitters.
*Bedding & changing pad cover from Serena and Lily.
*Yes, that is a stuffed bulldogge resting on the changing pad!
*West Elm floating shelves.
*LOVE my Anthropologie animal heads - bought them MONTHS ago.
*My alternative to a traditional rocker = modern chair & West Elm sheepskin pouf.
*Another bulldogge - this time surfing on a penguin's back!
TA DA! What do you think?! Of course, I am envisioning at least a couple of additions already:
There is A LOT of beige rug for me to handle. I'd like an area rug - something like this from Ikea...

And maybe down the road a children's size Panton chair in orange...
Thanks to Dad for helping me paint the nursery (OK, so he did most of it!), Mum for helping organize, and the hubby for doing the "usual" - hanging LOTS of stuff!

It looks amazing!! I love the floating shelves.
ReplyDeleteWhere did you get this fan? I, too, am in need of a ceiling/light combo + can't find anything I don't hate!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment! Look at Minka Aire for fans. They can be pricer than what you would find a Lowe's, Home Depot, etc. but they are good quality and nice looking - my husband is an electrician and he likes the brand. They also have a remote control switch (look to makes it comes w/one if you find one you like) - to install in the wall itself - that controls the lighting & fans in one. So no extra remote controls lying around.
ReplyDeleteI found your link through Spearmint Baby! I absolutely love your nursery! I am working on mine right now! What color did you use on the walls? And where did you find the modern chair? I love all of the details!
ReplyDeleteHi - thanks for the nice comment! The walls are Benny Moore "Opal Essence." I'm a big Benny Moore fan, they have some nice turquoise/aqua colors. The chair is from Boston Interiors - I don't think they ship out-of-state though. West Elm usually has nice modern-style chairs at a reasonable price, too. Good luck!!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!! I appreciate it! Congrats on your new bundle of love!
ReplyDeleteI love the "keep calm, and carry on" sign. I have a "keep calm, and have a cupcake" one in my kitchen. The room came out great!
