Nursery

So, I forgot to take "real" before pictures of when the nursery was a workout room. So imagine the room filled with a big weight bench, weight stand, and a heavy bag with stand (for all you non-fighters out there that is a 70 pound punching bag). For the record, Shawn misses his workout equipment. We didn't have any other spare room to put them in, so the weights went to his cousin's house (they bought the set together many years ago). The punching bag and stand are to be relocated to my mom's house unless we can find someone to buy it from us.

The before pictures are basically just white walls.



Without the windows covered it is hard to tell what paint color that is, but we painted the walls a light beige color and the trim is a chocolate.



After painting, Shawn and our friend George installed dropped down crown molding and behind the crown we put in rope lighting.



Then we finally put the crib in. Once it was all together we put the bumper pads and the bed skirt and sheet on. The theme is woodland creatures.



This is the quilt. The set has a deer, a fox, a bear, a bunny, owls, trees, and a hedgehog (or porcupine, we can't tell which).



Then, we got wall stickers that matched the crib set and put them around the closet.



And over the crib. We also have a little cross over the crib that has a little poem on it.



Then we put the curtains and valances up.



Finally we got the lights behind the crown hooked up so you can see what it will look like.



We are still working on arranging the other furniture in a workable manner. Plus, we are looking for a small bookshelf. When everything is finalized I will put up more pictures.
