  • We have finished painting and are starting to put things together. I hung the curtains yesterday.  I will have pictures next week!

    We are doing a superhero/comic book theme. DH is in love with it, so I am having the problem of him wanting to spend too much money on décor for the nursery. Ugh! I think we have spent more on décor than we have on actual furniture and other useful stuff!



  • @mrsg1019 Love your nursery! Where did you get your curtains and bookends?
  • My husband's sister and her husband painted a couple murals from Where the Wild Things are in the nursery.  He did all the detail work this weekend while we were away at a baby shower in the Chicago area.  We came home this evening to the finished work!  I'm so amazed and grateful for their work and wanted to show off their amazing skills.  This is their gift to their niece or nephew who they can't wait to meet.  We can start moving in furniture tomorrow!

    WOW! These are amazing. What an original and very special gift to their niece or nephew. These are my favorite kinds of gifts. Love it.

    As do I!  We have been so blessed with love and gifts for our baby.  I'll have to take pictures of and post the Max and Wild Thing stuffed characters our best friend's wife made as well as an adorable Wild Thing hat and onesie that she made.  They are so adorable!

    This is insanely adorable!!! They have a lot of talent and such a special thing to do for your LO. The world needs more people like that!

    Yes it does!  His nieces and nephews live to far away for them to spoil and since they only live an hour and a half from us I know ours will be so spoiled by them!  Mostly with love.  :)

  • Jumping on the bandwagon. :) The nursery isn't done yet, my BIL and family is visiting from Germany and staying in the baby's room but after they leave, I'll begin painting and putting everything together plus need to order the crib and rug. I put together a mood board for myself for inspiration and to stay on track. I love taking a peek at other nurseries. Everyone's is so cute and special, I tried to love tit each post. A lot of heart and love goes in each nursery.

    Crib bedding I special ordered it.

    JUDE - I ordered each one to be hung on walls.

    Dresser - customized by a local boutique. I will prob have to send the dresser back. The in-laws ruined it. I just found it TODAY when cleaning. They spilled water and didn't clean under lamp so it left a ugly obvious water discoloration. It's gonna cost $$ to get it sanded and refinished. (I cried over it, trying to just... Let go. Let goooooooooo...)

    The artwork on bottom right, I will do it myself when the inlaws leave. I found it on Pinterest with instructions.

    Omg! I would have cried about the dresser too. Ugh, I cringed when I read it. It's gorgeous. I love how everything works but it's not too matchy matchy.

    @mrsg1019 Love your nursery! Where did you get your curtains and bookends?

    Curtains were made by a friend who has an etsy account. I bought the fabric I wanted from this link:
    https://www.fabric.com/buy/0329817/premier-prints-zoom-zoom-slub-canal (they have a ton of other colors in the same style)

    ...and she made them for me. Here's a better/closer up picture of them. The colors from the curtains were the inspiration for everything else. image

    The bookends I made. Just got the 3d cardboard/paper mâché letters from Joanne's (Michael's and hobby lobby also carry them) and painted them. They're very light weight so hubby is supposed to make me an L Shape out of 2 pieces of wood, onto which I will glue the letters so they become more official looking book ends & support the weight better.
    They'll eventually look something like this image tho if you don't have a way to cut wood.. You can get these placards from Michael's (it's what I'll end up doing of hubby keeps dragging his feet on assembling the wood pieces I need.)image


    Let me know if you have any other questions!!
    Thanks for the info on the book shelves I went to ikea yesterday and got it!! Now I just need the canvas boxes :)

    Yay!! Ikea sells a few different styles of boxes (canvas, plastic, wicker, etc) We got ours from Target. Typically the cubes sold in most stores are much smaller than what the bookshelf can accommodate but if you look around I'm sure you'll find the larger 12x12 (I believe that's the measurement) around.

    @runningmama14 haha! Our outlet switch cover just came in the mail tonight but I'm not putting it on until all the painting is done (bc I know somehow paint will get on it).
    So cute I didn't even think about a light switch cover!  

    *heads off to Amazon.com*

    ** edited  - look what I found!

    I did this wall the other day. I can't decide if I love it or hate it. It's hard to tell without all the furniture in there. :-/

    Man, that's a lot of work! Good job! I like it. A friend of mine did and argyle wall in her daughter's nursery. It looked so awesome once the room was all done.

  • This thread is giving me heartburn.  All of your nurseries look so amazing, it's making me realize how far behind we are.  Our entire house is torn apart right now trying to fix soot damage from our furnace this winter.  I told the painters/restoration guys that I wanted the nursery done first so that I could get it set up.  They did...and then proceeded to fill the ENTIRE room (we're talking piled high from wall to wall) with everything from other rooms in our house to get them out of their way.  The crib arrived today, but I have no place to put it.   :(
