Lillian's nursery

We were all very shocked to find out we were having another little girl. It was time to get her room ready. We didn't want the usual girl decor, this took months to decide on bedding. When I found something I loved it was out of stock or they didn't have everything I need. Until I came across the Harlington set at Pottery Barn kids! This was just what we were looking for; modern and girly without the usual pastels etc.

Once we got the bedding in person, it was time to decide on the wall color. The red suggested by Pbkids was just too much for me, so we decided to go with a pale blue that shows up ever so slightly in the bedding.

Furniture! I had Matt repaint Abigail's crib from a pretty dark cherry to white. This keeps the room bright and airy. The rocker is a hand-me-down from my step-mother's dad and the changing table and nightstand are hand-me-downs from Abigail and my niece's rooms. Again I had Matt paint the rocker which was like it should be, worn and beautifully aged aling with the rocker and bed the nightstand got a fresh coat of white. The spray gun really helped with the painting and gives a nice finish. For the changing table I had been dreaming of a bright red one since I found out I was pregnant; so Matt sprayed it bright red. Note everyone thought I was crazy, bit it seems to be most peoples favorite thing in the room, a little something unexpected.

The lamp in the corner is left over from Abigail's previous room that I made. Lillian's initials above the bed were inspired by letters created by letterperfectdesigns on etsy.

And finally the curtains were a project my mom and I completed. See the previous post for a how-to.
