Emery's Nursery

Well her arrival could be any day so I figured it would be a good time to show you her nursery. Like I had talked about prior it all started with the bedding then just grew from there. It is a very girly room which I just love. It was hard to capture the in real life shade of aqua but you get the idea. Pink and Aqua is the general theme. I have to say my favorite thing in the room is the chandelier, it really wasn't to pricey ($90) but it makes the biggest impression in the room. I will never underestimate again how lighting can change a room.

So without further ado...Baby Emery's Nursery!

 

Nursery is Done!

The Nursery is done! We are ready for baby Cole to grace us with his presence whenever he is ready! We are still waiting to get the hamper which should be here any day but besides that everything is in place. I hope Cole enjoys it as much as Cam and me did putting it all together!

Nursery Update!

We have done a few updates on the Nursery these past 2 weeks, thanks mostly to Cam having some time off before starting his new job!

After we added crown molding sometime ago to the room, a much needed touch up paint job was needed as well as patching up some nail holes. Cam did a great job and the walls looked great and ready to go! Next up the wall decals!

So when I was looking at Nursery Decor I was torn between keeping the room soothing & sophisticated or soothing & playful. Well I decided in the end this room was for Cole so soothing & playful sounded best for my little man! I spent lots of time on Etsy looking at all the different and fun wall decals they had for kid's rooms. I decided to stay with the bedding theme of elephants, while I don't believe it looks like the standard jungle theme it's a nice twist that suits Cameron and me.

Thankfully my mother is a creative goddess and can do pretty much anything, she helped us with applying the two wall decals we choose.

The first one went on pretty quickly and looks great!


Now on to the monster of all trees! The tree we picked out came in many different pieces and required exact measuring of each piece before applying it to the wall. This is a job for 2-3 people and in NO way can be done by one person, if you ever are thinking about trying this let me know I have a few pointers. In all it took us around 4 hours to apply it and I would do it again in a heart beat! I absolutely love it! It's playful and fun, I love how we have some of the branches curve onto the adjacent wall! It's very dramatic when you see it in person. :)







Thanks again Mom(aka GG) for once again showing me how wonderful it is to have you as my mom!!!

Nursery Update!

Here is a quick update on the Nursery. We still have lots of work to do but we are off to a great start! My dad is restoring an old dresser to match the wood color of the crib and changing table. He's already taken one of the drawers to get started! The chair was a great find, it's a rocker/recliner, its super comfy and was pretty affordable. Many other projects left to do as well, like finding the right fabric for the window treatments (my mom's going to make them), baskets for the changing table , wall decor and finding a side table/bookcase. I'm taking my time looking around since we have about 121 days to go! Wow!
