Baby's Room

Ladies and gentleman...we have a nursery!

Since moving in to our townhouse in November of 2008, this spare room has acted as a storage area, guest bedroom, office and den. Back in February, once all the wedding gifts had been cleared out, I decided to make it my project to decorate and convert this room in to a lovely guestroom and den for me to watch all of my trashy television (Jason prefers that I don't record Keeping Up With the Kardashians on our family room TV). With the thought that we would probably be using the room as a nursery in a year or two, I decided to go with a gender neutral color scheme, which truthfully was an excuse to do the whole room in my favorite colors...black, white, yellow and gray.

Less than a month after painting the room we got a little surprise...

...and this room became a nursery sooner than anticipated.

Finishing this room has definitely been a labor of love and a long, ongoing project. After hundreds of ideas and concepts and countless hours on pinterest, etsy and bouncing ideas off Carolyn, it has finally come together! I had free range from Jason to do pretty much what I wanted, and I absolutely love how it turned out! 

Before I can show it off though, let's take a look back at what the room looked like back when:

And now, I am SO excited to show you the finished baby's room!

When the original plan was to make this a guestroom/den, we got a new TV and my father-in-law built us the shelves. I love having this little "me" corner in the room.

*Glider & Ottoman via Babies R Us compliments of my dad & step-mom

The dresser in between the closets is packed with all the fun things that baby will need once she's a little older...so bigger clothes, toys, etc.

This panda (which is my sorority's mascot) was given to me by my Big Sis, Holly, on the day I was initiated. 

This lamp was the very first thing I bought for the nursery the day after I found out I was pregnant.

Instead of buying new furniture I just converted the other dresser into the changing table. The drawers are stocked with diapers and all the necessities, as well as blankets, spare sheets, towels, etc.

But that's all you're getting....just be happy I didn't blur it out. :)
