Nursery Coming along! (PIP)

OK, first off...please be kind.  I really didnt think we would end up this loud and this girly.  We were going to go very subtle...but ended up taking a turn somewhere.  I am still getting used to it because the rest of our house is so nuetral.  Plus we had such a tiny room to work with.  DH says it will come together a lot more once we get the decorations hung.  But no turning back now...

So, I was MIA yesterday because I took off work for our PBK furniture delivery! I was so thankful they assemble it for you!  Here is where we are. The crib and curtain (we are getting another panel for each window for more fullness).  As well as the glider in the corner.

And this is before we hung the curtains, but shows the changing table/dresser-

  • I like it!  The pink on the walls is the same as the quilt right?  I think once you get the wall decorations up, it will be cohesive.  I love the furniture - good choice!

  • Yes it is, we went into sherwin williams and had them match the hippo on the quilt since the rest the bedding was green.  I am ready for it to be cohesive, lol!
  • I actually really like the color!! I love pink and probably would have done something similar if I had a girl!  howver -- the only cahnge that I think i would have made was to break up the walls with a chair rail or Wainscotting....it is a lot of pink! haha -- i like it though :)Yes

  • Thanks for the reassuring words ladies! I am still trying to get used to it for sure! But it helps to have other people say it looks good :-).  I know it is a lot of Pink...but once the other decorations get hung (and purchased for that matter), I think it will break it up some!
  • I like it! And are those dark hardwoods? They're gorgeous and really look great with the wall color. I just posted above about being overwhelmed with pink. UGH! lol.

  • Fun!

    That rocking giraffe is so cute.

    I had to laugh @ not planning on doing something so girly. It was the same for us. We were going to have a gender neutral nursery, but now we're having a pink rug, pink sheets, I even contemplated a pink glider! lol.

  • awwwww i think it looks cute- the dark furniture defiently tones down the walls- and once you put up some wall decorations its be awesome- great job!

     They are actually the original hardwoods of the house, which was originally built in the 30s.  They had been covered with carpet, and the guy who flipped the house that we bought it from was able to recover it.  They have a ton of character to them.  We are going to put down a small area rug though in the space that is in front of the crib.  DH suggested carpeting the room. I looked at him like he was crazy! I am not covering those beautiful woods!

    I just realized you might not have been talking about the floor..but yes, the furniture is espresso :-)

  • Your room looks awesome.  Beautiful furniture, adorable bird cushion in the glider, great curtains!  You have so much together, I'm impressed and a little jealous :)

  • So beautiful! I love the elephant on the blankie even tho I can only see half! You sound like me...I started by saying I wanted more mature, not so girly. But somwhere along the line, my nursery turned into a complete girly fest. OH well. Its the only time to do it, they may outgrow it so fast...might as well have fun with it!
