Nursery Ideas

We bought the paint for the nursery yesterday! So excited to start painting this weekend!!!! Nick and I are very excited and happy about the paint we chose and how well it all goes together.

Here is what I am thinking about doing. Not sure if we will do a chair rail or not (really want to), but that depends on time. If not we will just have a nice line around where it should be. We are doing a light yellow top with light greens below with all diferent types of circles.
For paint colors, we are using olympic no voc premium paint.

Top of the wall - A15-2 Shiny Silk

Bottom of the wall base - A68-6 Lemon Mint

Circles - A68-4 - Green Grapes
For the green grapes circles, we are most likely going to add some gold sparkles to the paint to make the circles stand out more

All the colors together

Nick may do a Dr. Seuss mural on the wall, but not completely sure we will have time. If we don't, we are going to get some prints and frame them. We would not get all of them..maybe 3 or 4 scattered about the room.

I also want to put above the chair rail on one wall the alphabet. Very whimisical and random. Nick's dad is going to help make the letters with his wood carver machine. Not very big letters - maybe 6-8 inch. Here are some of my inspiration ideas

Ordered the crib!

Ok one more post!

So yesterday we ordered our crib! Click for link

We ordered this crib with a smaller dresser in white! It is whimsical, pretty, and gender neutral! We both agreed on it pretty easy! Will take about 10-12 weeks to get in. Which is perfect, since I don't want to be stressing that it won't come in and we need that time to clear out the room.

Here is the dresser we ordered in white. We are going to use it for a changing table too. The bottom legs come off so it will drop it down a few inches to make it easier to move a baby onto it!

We ordered the furniture from a local kids furniture store! Love supporting the local businesses vs big chains! We try to do this as often as possible. We are going to get as much as we can from this store!

We also got the crib matteress! It is a more eco friendly mattress than the others out there. The colgate classica mattress is rated really well and is nice and firm! Made with all renewable materials!
