Nursery Photos!

Parker16772 · December 2015

A place to post pictures of progress of your nursery if you are doing one! Anyone else started yet?

We are doing grey, navy and green with some elephants. So far we have paint, bedding, curtains and my chair that came in today. The ottoman isn't being delivered until Jan for some weird reason. I am hoping to get the crib down from the attic and set up while I am off the week of Christmas and to get his dresser painted!

We were super motivated in October. My husband painted walls and I bought most of what we needed. Now we just need to finish! Here's the re-finished furniture minus the crib.

KMKaiser07 · December 2015

Mine is done because we are having another boy. All I have to do is convert the toddler bed back into a crib, put up a photo board that fell down (the missing space by the other three boards), make a new board with the letter C, and another board with Camden written out. Most of my work will be painting and setting up DS1's new room.

Can't wait to post here! I have a "mood" board with all of the items I've selected all displayed together. We're working with seafoam green carpet (not our choice) so we're going neutral with everything else except some pops of color in the artwork, lamps, and other accessories. We're re-using the glider we have already and a few other little things.

We aren't doing a nursery, but I looooove looking at pics!

hellomylittleone · December 2015

We've started with a cot so far! We ordered a change table and drawer set that arrived during the week, my husband plans to set that up today and then I'll get started on the side of the room. All furniture is white as are our walls and colour from bedding/artwork/toys

The bunting flags spell her name on the other side

Cute! I had a lot of fun doing a big boy room for DS1!

I'm SO excited to do his room! Just waiting for DH to finish priming and painting. We already picked up his new furniture and I can't wait to start some DIY projects for his room!

Post pictures when you get done! It's so much more fun when they are older and can get excited about their room.

Here's to hoping DH gets moving and gets it done! I ideally wanted DS1 in his new room before the baby comes so he doesn't feel like he got kicked out of his current room because of the baby. I would also like to use what free time I have to craft.

My husband painted the nursery and installed the chair rail last weekend. Then, I had to see it come together so we got the crib set up the other night. I'm so excited for it to be looking like a room for an actual baby.

jstanton0822 · December 2015

The walls aren't done and there's going to be a giant yoshi face rug in the middle of the floor. But here's the furniture.

Mom bought us the crib.

The tall shelf and dresser were both free and we painted them.

The little coat rack came from Ikea.

The rocking chair came from a garage sale 4 years ago when we first decided to have a baby. (Yeah, we were a bit excited. LOL)

Above the crib is a yoshi collage that my husband test printed. It will be blown up much larger than that.

Above the dresser is a test print of the "wallpaper" my husband will be printing on high quality removable adhesive vinyl.

The wallpaper will go all the way around the room, but only the top half of the wall.

The bottom half will be painted light brown and a cream chair rail will be installed.

It's a start......

jstanton0822 · December 2015

Here's the "wallpaper". My husband drew it based on a scene in Yoshi's Island.

jstanton0822 · December 2015

Actually attached this time....

mamaimmoos · December 2015

Room is slowly coming together! Thanks to a handy husband for creating all my fun protects and going along with my self created theme. Just need a couple more parts and pieces and final touches. Can't wait for little man to move in!

hellomylittleone · December 2015

A little update from today! Changing area all set up. Was fun putting things away in the drawers and feeling a bit more organised

I also picked up a new bassinet, which we aren't setting up til a little bit later on when we make a bit more room in our bedroom.

Next couple weeks will be new curtains and setting up the feeding chair. Good to see it coming together!

tamaraatown · December 2015

I find this to be the most comforting room in the house. Love everyone's pics!

AlissaLee17 · December 2015

So far...

veganmummy · December 2015

Ok i feel like a slacker. My husband started this weekend but he works nights. I'm honestly not sure when he will finish painting bit it's "his" project and won't let me help.

Where is the little three tiered side table thing from??

LOVE your curtains. Super cute!

hellomylittleone · December 2015

@flowerpower5838 I don't think I'll be much help when it comes to asking me where I've gotten things from, sorry...! I live in New Zealand and I got it from a sort of "daily deals" website we have here. But it's called a Ladder Shelf

if that at all helps you in your search!

skruhmin · December 2015

OH MY GOSH WE ARE SO FAR BEHIND!!! I really should take a picture of the dumping ground

Everyone's looks beautiful so far!

bntfroggie · December 2015

We have only painted and it still need another coat, but I'm digging it so far. I had a talk with DH about how I thought would have finished it this weekend he said he would try and do it today and that he realizes I want to get in there. Anyway here is our green Nursery for our woodland theme.

AlissaLee17 · December 2015

@flowerpower5838 Thanks! They came with the house. Lol

JLaVO888 · December 2015

Still in progress and we really need a rug to cover some of that carpet that doesn't match with anything. I'v still got a few crafty things to make as well.

CecilB93 · December 2015

So jealous of all the beautiful nurseries!! We're in a one bedroom apartment, so DS will basically have a wall in our bedroom for now. I've been itching to decorate a nursery so bad!! When our lease is up we're going to get a two bedroom and I'm going to go crazy decorating his room! Lol. Even though I can't do much, I have planned it out. The colors are gray and yellow and white, and we're going to have minions throughout the room, not overwhelmingly so though! Keep posting pics so I can live vicariously through you all!

smount2011 · December 2015

I would love to do baby's half of the room but I can't because I'm waiting on the stupid crib! Lol. The walls are a dark gray already (we rent) so it will be fun turning half the room into a nursery while keeping the other half girly for DD

herfst80 · December 2015

Love to see all your beautiful nurseries! Can't wait starting on ours. Contractor started yesterday, than we (the plummer) has to relocate the heating, put in wooden floor and than (my) funpart can begin. Will show you the progress.

SarahFoley725 · December 2015

Our nursery is also a dumping ground...it's a mess. This is what her bedding and stuff will be made out of though!

Mcbb224 · December 2015

Aww so beautiful! Love these nurseries! I'm kind of sad we won't have an official nursery until we move in August. Will just be using a pack and play until we do move! Plus we barely have room in our two bedroom since my mom is currently living with us! But I plan on cute elephants, gray, turquoise and some purple!

jenniferamcooper · December 2015

Can't wait to finish ours. It's a boy-girl shared nursery. Our son will be just over 2 when be baby girl arrives so we might be nuts but we're going to give it our best go with room sharing. Baby will be in a bassinet with us for the first week or two (our first lasted 48 hours, none of us slept well near each other) then probably transition to the crib.
I've been doing a lot of planning where it's a shared space but the room is large and l-shaped so I think it'll lend itself well to being a shared nursery.
We have a dresser to stain, a small book shelf to paint and lots of little DIY touches to add. I'm even attempting 2 polka dot accent walls.

@skruhmin if it makes you feel any better, I'm even more behind because we are moving in Februaury!! For now all my decorating is on Pinterest!

tJaffe · December 2015

They're all so cute! We aren't doing a nursery. The spare room is on the other side of the house. We live in key west and there's no central air in most older houses, so we can't hear anything that happens in the rest of the house at night. Even with a monitor I would worry too much. He'll have a crib in our room and will stay with us the first year or so. Then we'll figure out a plan. But I do have ideas for his corner of the room.

goodee1 · December 2015

ecwk · December 2015

@goodee1 that's super cute!! Were those white shelves difficult to put up? I'd love something like that!!

alligreer88 · December 2015

I posted our furniture earlier, but we finally spent an hour on the room again so I gotta post our updates. Still need to paint crib. The art work is from my 4 year old. Fitting a glider and side table in here too.

FutureMrsCaesar · December 2015

@goodee1 holy sh*t you are motived! Looks really good! I'm hoping to *start* our little girls nursery in the new year after I get all the holiday crap put away (using that as my motivation!).
Here's my dilemma...I have a light green upholstered rocking recliner that I've used in our boys nursery for a few years. DH of course wants me to use this in the new babys room also, which I agree I should because there's nothing wrong with it and it works very well for nursing/middle of the night cuddling. HOWEVER all the girl nursery color themes that I like don't involve light green. So- do I go practical and find some bedding that I don't LOVE but will match said chair, or do I be ridiculous and buy a new chair to use for like 18 months? Ugh, I think i already know what I should do...ha! I hate being reasonable!
