March Nursery Updates

in May 2016 Moms
We are still sitting here waiting for my friend to show up for breakfast (23 minutes late - pet peeve but I'll get over it).  :# in the meantime I thought I'd start a thread for the March nursery updates. Post away as you complete things, I love seeing everything!

    We haven't done anything yet as we are buying a house and moving this month. I can't wait to get started though! We are painting one wall red and leaving the rest white. The crib will go against the red wall. We are doing an Avenger's theme and I have two cute little Avenger's prints to hang up as well.

    Thank you! It's from an Etsy shop called Twirly Bird Designs. It's a Burts Bees outfit that I've seen a few other places and then she monograms it. I think she has a few other styles.

    Thanks, lady!! How is the sizing? It seems like some NB outfits look like premies compared to others!

    Sure! I feel like this one is pretty true to size for a newborn item. Any bigger and it would probably be too big to use for a first outfit.

    This. Is. Awesome. I would totally do an Avengers theme if DH didn't think it was stupid. 

    You have to share pictures when it's finished!

    Everything is still very much a work in progress but I had to post this-- my brother in law made it for us ❤️
    I love this! We're doing an owl theme and I think this would go perfectly so maybe I can convince to do something similar instead of the shelves we were planning...

    Everyone's nurseries look great! I haven't started yet. We're doing some renovations and the baby will be here in 8 weeks. I'm starting to freak out.

    I can't wait to really get started! The crib is up, dresser should be here Friday and the glider is in the garage waiting to be put together. Maybe in a week or so I will post pictures!

    We are prepping a guest bedroom to become DS's big boy room...blinds are installed, carpets are cleaned, and bedding should arrive in a week or so! Almost ready to order curtains, we will hang one and the other will be used to create a cornice board. We are using a bed, nightstand and dresser we already have but will be on the hunt for wall art and toy storage, and building some bracket shelves to display toy trucks that DH's grandfather made!

    After Easter vacation we will move him in then really get to work on the nursery! I have new crib sheets and skirt, a changing table with baskets, a few accessories and a garland to hang. Still need to get more to decorate the walls and get it all set up. I'll be the late May due date mama posting about her nursery while others are snuggling their babies!

    Finally got our furniture delivered this past Friday and moved all the items into the room. Shower is in 2 weeks so i wanted to get everything sorted and spots kind of figured out pre-shower so i can sort of just bring everything home and put it right away where its ultimately going to go. Though im sure i will need to re-sort, and the things on the shelves are definitely not staying that way.

    Color didnt come out as dark or as really the tone i wanted, but we decided to just go with it. It was called Antique Pearl and ironically enough it really shifts between 3 colors like a pearl would. Depending on the time of day and amount of light, it either looks pink, grey or lavender. But all are extremely subtle and we didnt want THAT subtle. Also, the rug color is nothing like what it looked like on the computer, its much more minty than we wanted, but again were just going to live with it.

    The overall theme is like Woodland Fairies, (i think a few other moms here were working with similar themes!) but more like a fairy creating her own nursery rather than covering the nursery in fairy theme, if that makes any sense. We have a long way to go but pulling in a lot of natural elements like moss and wood that we just haven't gotten to yet. Using herbs, dried flowers and things like that in the decor. Have some antiqued fairy prints coming in the mail.  Definitely ways to go still and definitely still a lots of mess that needs to get put away. The closet (not pictured) isnt ready yet so hopefully the clutter will be put in there this weekend. I just got home from buying the window treatments so im hoping they will be on by tonight. :)




    Is the chair print from buy buy baby? think that's very close to what I want to custom order. And yes, I have not ordered furniture yet because I am a procrastinator.

    GORGEOUS!!!!

    I wish I had the magic touch that some of you have. I was happy with our room, until I saw some of these.
    kmarie357  I am pretty obsessed with yours too!

    Our glider should be here this weekend, and I hope to get it built on Sunday. Still nervous it will be too big for the room, but will have to make it work

    I got some frames this week I plan on painting for the prints on the wall too.

    Hoping to have updated pics for you guys this weekend. Although, you all just put me to shame!

    @yogahh  I'm with you!  All these nurseries are so pretty/stylish/cool and I'm kind of a plain Jane and just not girly at all.  I only have 2 of the walls with decorations on them so far, so I haven't posted any pics yet...or maybe it's because I have nursery envy! ;)

    @TXmamatobe
    We had the exact opposite issue. The furniture was ready to be delivered WAY too soon and we werent able to recieve it. We had to put them off for almost 6 more weeks.
