I finished painting the base color and plan to do a mural wall starting tomorrow! (we still need to clean out the closet and move the furniture under the drop sheets, though - - and we don't have any baby furniture or anything yet!)
Not really a full nursery, but this is the nook in our master where we’ll be putting LO. DD1’s crib is in here already, a couple clothing gifts we got for DD2, the pouf/footstool I got. I still need to swipe the glider from DD1’s room but I’m trying to do it gradually. I’ll probably use the pack n play with diaper change station we have instead of moving the whole dresser. I’ll rearrange the furniture once everything is in here, as much as I hate to block the exit the crib is on wheels and this door goes to the balcony anyway.

We’ve just now started working on the nursery so this is just an in-progress photo. All we’ve done is move out the desk in what was formerly our tiny office and move in the PackNPlay and umbrella stroller handmedowns I got from a co-worker and the collection of clothes I couldn’t resist buying on Target runs 😅. I’m not really sure how to do the nursery yet. We’re in a rental so I’m not going to bother with painting (plus three of the walls are almost entirely taken up by windows and a mirrored closet door). At a minimum we’ll put up sound/light blocking curtains, add a crib, changing table/dresser, glider and rug (PackNPlay and stroller will be stored for later use). Probably some shelves for books, toys, etc...I wish I was more creative; hope to get some inspiration from you ladies 😃
Still a work in progress over here. We did finally get our glider / recliner this weekend. Still need to hang mirror, shelves and name for flower thing. Holding my breath for the PB curtains I want a decent sale (prob wishful thinking)! Otherwise, it’s just little odds and ends still needed.

It’s not done yet, but we are making progress. We are trying to get it done early so we can be prepared should they come early, and because I may get too big to do much.

@meggyme thank you!! I am still going to order name signs to go underneath the deer, but I really like the way it came together. It came as sort of a kit (vinyl decals) that was a little more DIY than I intended. The deer were supposed to be “on the ground” but I decided to rearrange them.

Yea I’ve got nothing going on here. Love seeing everyone’s progress though! Hoping to have DD1 moved into her new room by Christmas so we can reassemble the crib and bam...nursery will be done! I’ll just have organizing to do after that.
DH finally finished painting the nursery!! We have no furniture yet but we got our road construction decals the other day. Going to add some gray touches to bring in concrete colors (most likely the furniture) but I just love how vibrant the color is. The picture doesn’t quite do it justice.
I love all of your progress.. we are using DH “office/extra storage room” as our babies room so we aren’t anywhere close at the moment. I’m hopeful we will get further along after Christmas decorations are put up. In the meantime I love seeing all your work.
Loving all the updates! I will probably get a start on ours in January. Moving my son out of the room this month, then will have the chance to play around with how I want it to look.
@catlady2015 thank you!! I freehanded it! The lightest segment is very roughly based on a mountain here called 3 fingered jack, but I figured it is overall a very forgiving mural, so I didn't worry about following anything too closely, except for approximate proportions (which I based on the amount of paint I had)!
I ended up using 1 sample size each of white and black, and 3 of the same shade of blue (but there is some left in one of the blues and both black/white) and for the top two shades I mixed in a little of the yellow that the background/rest of the room is painted.
@abbykwail Love it!! You did so good! i wish I had the nerve to do what you did!

@kristimh80 Thank you!!! It isn't as hard as I thought it would be! I looked at a toonnn of wall murals on pintrest before starting and there were some helpful pictures. There are also decal stickers of wall murals, if you are into that idea 😊. If you want you are welcome to DM me and I can help you plan one out!!
@abbykwail Awe thank you, I appreciate it! If I didn't already have my nursery pretty much planned and almost done...I def would! It took me forever to get any plan of action going but once I got 1 piece of inspiration, everything sprung into action

We don't have an extra room for a nursery so baby girl will be shacking up with us for a while, until she's sleeping well enough to share a room with DSS. Right now DSS is in our second biggest bedroom, my husband and I's shared office is in the third biggest, and DS is in the smallest. We're looking at configurations but I think we'll keep DSS where he is and switch the office and fourth bedroom. DS's current room just isn't big enough for two to share.
@kb_momofboys that looks great! I feel vastly underprepared now LOL!
oh def dont. i def way over did it this round. looking back on pics from my other kids their stuff is laughable lol... this round im actually working from hom and two kids in school so ive got a ton of time on my hands. and tons of hand me downs hahah
Nowhere near finished, but we FINALLY put the crib up today! (We've had it for a month, but other things kept taking precedence- man flu, grad school, broken washing machine). LO is taking over half of my hubby's office, so the moustaches will be replaced by elephants and other zoo animals eventually
