nursery updates

we have a nursery!

it's not done, no. but we painted this past weekend, we received our crib and some accessories, and i ordered a few fabrics for sheets. i figured a sneak peek was timely, since we've got only a few things (but, things!) to show right now.

here are the walls before. a pinkish crayola peach color that just had to go.



we chose a subtle blue gray by olympic calling going gray - available at lowe's. and don't worry, i used the premium version, which is zero voc and somewhat "green". here's me at 30 weeks, painting the edging. it's black and white because i was wearing bright green, unflattering pants and i have some level of dignity.

 

mr. h3b built the crib tonight and i had him move it around the room to see where it looked best. here is a tiny peek at the paint color, the crib, and the new faux sheepskin rug.



our mini doxies were on hand to "help". they were joined by the white offi dachshund lamp.



and that's all i've got so far. when i post the final nursery images, or, more of it than this, i'll be sure to include a full write up of what/from where for everything.

I'm looking for a similar rug for my baby's nursery. Where did you find yours?

the rug is from home decorators.com

it's very soft but a bit thin, so i did order a rug pad for underneath.
