Nursery Reveal

I promised updated shots of the house... and I am delivering! This post is all about our nursery.

Let's go back to the before picture, shall we?

Would you put your baby in this room?

The bug bomb in the center of the room really sells it, doesn't it? Funny thing is, this is the room that probably needed the LEAST amount of work. A little bit of cleaning, refinished floors, and a metric ton of paint later, we had a workable space.

Most of this courtesy of grandma.

Much cuter, right? I also added a simple name banner above the crib...

I found these adorable Botanical Garlands by Rifle Paper Company on Amazon and the paper doilies at the dollar tree. Some twine, scissors, and tape were the other supplies used.

I strung the twine through the pre-cut openings on the letters, then taped the letter to the center of the doily.

Then, I hung the banner with a touch of hot glue. The birds are from Michael's. They were plain, wooden cut-outs that were less than a dollar each. I painted them a few of the nursery colors using some acrylic paint that I had lying around. I then attached the birds to the wall with some command strips to give them a 3D look.

Disclaimer: The pillows and stuffed animals are in the crib for the sake of staging. Peeling the vinyl wall decal is currently not in her motor-skill set. The banner and birds are out of her reach and firmly secured to the wall. Always do what is best and safest for your baby.
