The Nursery

Here's a little peek at the Nursery.  We've been working on it for the past few months and its almost together.  I've had a hard time getting a good picture of it because the lighting is tricky in that room so here are some shots I took straight from the camera. The walls look yellow, but they are really a pretty shade of grayish-green called Plum Passion.
 The original plan was to put up bead board on all of the walls, but at the last minute I changed my mind and decided I wanted it to go up 5 feet and make a nice ledge that I could put things on.  Good grief, I don't know how my husband puts up with me changing my mind every five minutes!  He must love me :). We also pulled off all of the builder's grade baseboard and installed a nicer, taller one.  Jeff also cased out the window and put a nice ledge on it.  We still have a little bit of touch up paint to do on the green and then we are having someone come in to paint all of the new moulding and bead board.  We had to buy a few pieces that weren't pre-painted because of size issues, so we decided we'd just have someone paint it all the same shade of white so it would match. Also, our builder painted all of our doors with a yucky flat paint, and as you can imagine, after two years and three little boys running around, the doors are not so much white anymore, so we'll have those painted too. I'll have to post some more (and hopefully better) pictures when it is all finished.

Jeff and I both agree that it is our favorite room in the house.  I'm pretty sure Mason concurs.

Sleeping babies... nothing sweeter in my opinion!
