Lacking nursery motivation

bethany joy

We have all the big stuff done: paint, rocker, dresser, crib, sheets, changer. It stil looks so half-done. There is no decor at all. I think I am being indecisive about everything. Anyone else is this boat?

Going to some resale shops, Ikea, BBB and The Container Store today. Hoping to make progress. Hah 

 I need to stop buying clothes and buy stuff we need. Bad bad

At least you have something done! LO's crib is arriving today, which brings his total amount of furniture possessions up to 1. :P

Don't stress, you have plenty of time!

search etsy too.  I found some of our stuff by typing in "blue and green modern nursery" and it gave me all kinds of prints, etc. to choose from.

Painting is done. Crib is in a large box in the middle of the room. Other than that-zilch. She may not have any furniture or decor, but man that girl will have some dresses and shoes

I'm also being extremely indecisive!  I've been sitting here all morning trying to decide between poms or paper lanterns and agonizing over which colors to get.  I also can't decide on a glider, a wall decal, or the rest of the wall decor. It's driving me nuts.

I was at the Dollar Tree this morning and found Paper Laterns there!! Big score if you want some in color and different sizes. I was buying smaller frames for an idea I came up with to do LO's name.

I felt the same way, so I went antiquing today for 'knick knacks'... found a few cute things, but mainly did it for inspiration.  Our nursery will have a vintage feel to it, hence the antiquing part of it.

I definitely second etsy.  I have bought all of my decor from etsy, and I love it.  People are pretty creative and crafty.

Exactly this  ... I have all these ideas for decorations and DIY projects. But haven't started a single thing yet.

Thanks for making me feel better. Decided to not run around town today after all - but we ARE going to the mall and I've been getting ideas online all day

Thanks for the tip!  I may talk DH into checking that out tomorrow!
