We made major headway in the nursery this weekend - so much so that I think the next blog post about the nursery will actually be the final reveal!
So you have seen where we started, the paint job, the furniture, and the accessories. Now it's time to share the decor. While our Home Improvement Super Hero, Doug Kidd, was here helping us out with some kitchen projects, we got him to help us hang some shelves on the wall of the nursery.
I had ordered some shelves from West Elm...
...and when they came in Ed declared that in no way was he hanging them. Wall shelves are always tricky and we wanted to make sure they were very secure since they were in the baby's room. So we hired a professional. And thank God we did because they were tricky to hang and secure to the wall.
And we didn't stop there. We really needed some shelves for the baby's books. We don't have much floor space in the room for a book shelf so we needed some high quality bins to put the books in. I loved these from Pottery Barn Kids...
... but they were too big for the space we wanted to hang them up. In came Doug. I sent him the above photo and he made them for us and hung them for a fraction of the price. May I present, our newly outfitted nursery walls:
We do plan to paint the new shelves white, but you get the idea. We are soooo close to being done and I am LOVING the way it looks. I had a vision before we started and I have to tell you, it's great to see it come to fruition.
Only a few more things are needed and then we will be done. It's been a long journey...but totally worth it. Coming soon...THE FINAL REVEAL!!!!
