As soon as we found out baby’s gender, I was ready to start getting the nursery together. The first thing my husband said was, “we have plenty of time”…which he quickly rescinded when he realized pregnancy hormones were a real thing. The day after our Gender Reveal, we ended up at Home Depot picking out paint for the walls. π
var _gaq = _gaq || [];
_gaq.push([‘_setAccount’, ‘UA-20949449-1’]);
_gaq.push([‘_trackPageview’]);
(function() {
var ga = document.createElement(‘script’); ga.type = ‘text/javascript’; ga.async = true;
ga.src = (‘https:’ == document.location.protocol ? ‘https://ssl’ : ‘https://www’) + ‘.google-analytics.com/ga.js’;
var s = document.getElementsByTagName(‘script’)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();
We ended up choosing mint green, and it turned out beautifully. I didn’t want to be confined to decorating with just pink or purple for a girl (too cliche for me), so I really like the soft pastel green. We ended up painting the nursery the very next weekend, so we could get it completed before we left for our beach vacation at the end of May. It was so nice to go on vacation knowing we crossed one big project off the list!
It didn’t take me long to pick out the bedding, from Pottery Barn Kids, of course…I can never resist Pottery Barn! We decided to go with a gray & white print bedding, which I’m super excited about. While I don’t like too much pink, I plan to do accents of pink, white and gold throughout the room. We’ve been picking up things for the nursery as we see them – a gold framed mirror, a pink and gold photo frame, a girly lamp with a lace lampshade, a classic-looking side table to go beside the chair.
With the exception of the dresser (which, I’m pretty set on the Hemnes from IKEA….such a great size & can double as a changing table! We just haven’t ordered it yet.), the nursery is nearly complete. Just a few things like shelves, drapes and some wall art left to get. There are even some adorable clothes starting to fill up the closet π Trust me, it’s such a relief for a Type A like me to cross things off my ‘to do’ list!
