This past weekend was a very productive one for the nursery! Yay!!! Just in time for the nesting hormones! We decided to paint the nursery green. We love green, and it is gender neutral - a win - win! Friday night we put the final (3rd!!! coat on) We went with a low VOC paint, and it turns out the yellow toned paints require an additional coat than the 2 we are used to!
Saturday, Zach put together the crib (a hand-me-down from family). We spent a little time deciding on how to best arrange the furniture, and then we headed to Ikea to get some additional necessities and fun decor! We picked up a great rug, that to me resembles the rings of a tree (which matches the curtains we had already picked up from Ikea that have trees, with leaves and birdies on them) We also have been eyeing the leaf canopy at Ikea since before we were preggo, and had to pick that up as well! We also picked up a small bookshelf and some wall mounted shelves (which you will see once the nursery is complete!) A good start... and I am pleased with how it is all coming together so far! More updates to come!
