Sneak Peek: Nursery

The nursery is on hold until we have the carpet installed at the beginning of April.  I am also waiting to hang pictures and shelving on the wall until after we pick out a comfy white chair.  So . . . until those two things occur, I am not going to do a nursery tour.  :(   To tide you over, here is a sneak peek of the nursery.

This is our inspiration for the nursery.  I have been in love with this Pottery Barn nursery forever.  Since we aren't finding out the gender I wanted it to stay very neutral, so I consulted Pinterest.  After the baby is born we are going to add in accents of pink or navy blue.




This is NOT our crib.  Our crib still needs to be painted white, currently it is brown.  But, this is our bedding and similar wall color.  Just to give you an idea.  :)

  I have been collecting books for our baby.  Some of the classics and some cute board books.  Right now they are in a basket or in the closet, but I love this display from Martha Stewart.  I'm thinking it would work behind the door. 

This is my changing table from when I was a baby. . . it was brown.  I refinished it last summer when I could still paint.  I don't think we will use it as a changing table since we have a large window seat in the bedroom.  I like the idea of having a surface to place miscellaneous things . . . such as a fan or humidifier (which is currently in our bedroom since I have been sick this week).  I am planning on hanging pictures above it but I am waiting until we get the chair.  It is going directly to the right of this table and I would hate to get the pictures centered just to move them because the chair is slightly larger/smaller than we expected. 


 This past summer we picked up the vintage alphabet bunting from the Bellingham Farmers Market.  We fell in love with it and knew it would fit our design scheme.  Funny thing, we bought it from one of Jon's old neighbors who told a family friend about the purchase . . . needless to say it caused some summer speculation.  Nope, we're just planners. :)  The crib is going to centered on this wall. 

That's it for now. . . I'll post an update after we get the carpet, hang some things on the walls and pick out a chair.  It's coming together and we can't wait until it is occupied by baby Cooper.  Hope he or she likes it!
