Also I think it’s safe to say these are my favorite colors. My wedding colors were also gray and pink. **Just wanted to specify that the whole room is a light gray and then we painted white stripes and the accent color is hot pink..:) **
There are so many sweet little touches. And I had lots and lots of fun shopping for all the little accessories. I also recycled things we already had, for example the dresser/changing table was my old dresser.. the bow tied on the crib is my wedding veil (this is more for looks- she is still not using her crib), and the glider is from my Sister in Law. It sat outside for years getting destroyed but I knew we could still fix it up (I was not ok with spending $300+). There were no cushions- just the springs and wood so I made cushions and Bob painted it.
My nursing station has all my breast pads, creams, and pumping equipment underneath. And under the crib, and in the top drawer of the dresser is where all of the diapers & wipes are at. We got a ton of diapers at my baby shower, 2 months so far without needing to go to the store for more, and there are still a ton under there.
This nursery took many days of nagging my husband (he would much rather be fishing or just doing something other than “work” ) and he thought painting the stripes was a pain since we have textured walls.. but it finally got done!
I actually did the hand print and footprint since putting these pictures together and there are 2 canvases that my sister is helping me paint that I’m going to hang by the window. Of course put our photos in the frames, but.. if we wait ‘til then who knows when I was ready to reveal it!
Here’s the details if you’re interested of where everything came from:
♥The curtains I ordered from Etsy.
♥The print I saw somewhere else and made it myself.
♥The crib skirt & glider cushions made by moi.
♥From Target: crib, rug, pouf, shelving unit in the corner, pink storage bins, and the white baskets.
♥Nightlight, shelves & brackets are from Ikea.
♥The closet size markers I made using supplies from Michaels. (sidenote- I was going to use the letter ‘O’ but found those were more money than what I was wanting to spend so as I was walking around and in the floral aisle there were these wooden rings.. worked perfectly and were cheap!)
♥and a bunch of other little accessories are from Michaels, Wal Mart, Etsy, TJMaxx or things I already had and spray painted hot pink.
If you see anything that I didn’t mention and are wondering where it’s from, ask away!
