Slowly but Surely

Nursery. In progress. Yeah. Oh so I sit here just wishing that Baby Loves room would magically put itself together because I have no motivation to so whatsoever. I have been working on little projects for her room but all I need now is to finally start putting stuff up. This is what it looked like before, when we first moved in.



Anywho, see the ugly Pepto Pink blotchy walls? (Not that there is anything wrong w/pink walls) but we definitely were not going to leave it like this. Being the paint whore that I am I immediately started looking through my paint chips, doing research, stalking blogs for ideas. Once we found out it Bean was a girl I chose a paint color that she could grow into and was not too "girly".

*PLEASE EXCUSE ALL THE JUNK ON THE FLOOR.*
..and I LOVE IT. I want her room to have a vintage-y-modern feel (yes folks I made that word up, or the spelling of it at least). I'm not working with a specific budget but I am NOT trying to break the bank either. I've scored some really good deals and have done a lot of DIY which I can't wait to share with you that I still need to blog about but I don't want to bombard you with it all at once. I will try to post about each "project" each day...I said "try".

Here are the things that I have done thus far:
- Paint the room, ceiling & closet
- Paint trim
- Put up the crib (generous gift from G-ma & G-pa Moore)
- Purchase the rug (from Target)
- Refinished dresser/changing table
- Refinished vintage dresser
- Wall letters
- Wall art



Stuff I still need to do (besides put it up) & or purchase:
- Make final decision on fabrics used for curtains/crib bedding
- Rocker/glider & ottoman
- Mobile
- Crib bedding
- DIY curtains
- Lamp
- Small side table.
- More wall art/stuff
- Poms

Doesn't seem like a whole lot left to do. I just need to get the dresser/changing table in her room (which should be tomorrow - Sat.) so I can start putting stuff up on the walls. Yes people, that's what's holding me back besides my lack of motivation lol.

Until next time my lovelies.
