Baby B's Nursery

Baby B has a nursery when he/she comes home! It took a lot of work, but I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. It is really nice having it done, and I was even able to have it ready before my best friend, Lissa, came in from Texas (thanks for the extra motivation).

A few before pics...

I am sure that most of you will not be surprised that the theme of the nursery is "Down Under." I found the set online and immediately knew it was the one. I showed it to Dustin and he thought it was nice (which was probably as much excitement as I was going to get from him). I ordered it right away and when it showed up the next week, Dustin was surprised. I guess he didn't realize "we" had made a final decision.
The greens, yellow, and oranges are perfect for him/her and the koalas, kangaroos, and crocodiles are precious. I told Dustin that we will have to go to Australia soon, so that he and the baby can appreciate my love of it.
My friend, Mary, "helped" pick out the paint colors and they turned out perfect!
I wanted lighter furniture at first, but I am glad we ended up with the darker color


Of course I bought almost every piece of the set. Who can resist the nightlight and light plate switch cover!
Hopefully the baby is as happy with his/her new room as we are :o)

I love it! It turned out great! It seems like a very calm, relaxing place that he/she is going to enjoy! Love the dark wood choice too!
