The Mailhes Project

Current Project: 3 kids under 2

Nursery Decorating Time

The all important nursery decor! I started out by putting a little too much pressure on creating a beautiful room for my little girl that I hadn’t made any decisions or done anything resembling progress with the room. I finally have a vision in mind and have started working on things to make it start coming together. Now that I have started it has been so fun to create this room for her and know that we are going to love this little girl so much in this room, laugh with her, possibly cry with her (maybe on those nights we can’t get her to sleep?) and create a life for her in our home.

 

Still lots to do, but here’s the very beginnings of our progress:

Wall color: Dinner Mint (Behr paint)

Dresser: found at High Street Antiques in Plano, repainted it with Annie Sloan chalk paint, sprayed the bottom and the hardware gold and clear coat(still in progress). This surprisingly came out exactly how I envisioned it in my head!

Accessories: metallic pouf to be used as ottoman was a must for me- bought from Land of Nod online. Other accessories from Hobby Lobby and not totally sure how or if we will work them all in.

Crib: Was the hardest decision, but has been ordered! The Parisian Crib by Bratt Decor in distressed black. Should have it in a few weeks! 

Glider: Ok this was also the hardest decision for Trey and I to agree on comfort and looks. The Kersey Glider from Babies R Us, but we ordered in in a lighter grey fabric that has some texture to it. Hopefully we like it when it comes in. Probably won’t get it until late November.

Possible accent color: Coral Dune by Behr. Not sure yet how we are incorporating this yet

Still on the list of things to do or get:

– a black and white chevron rug? Maybe. 

– our very cool $15 side table from a thrift store that will be painted and redone

– hanging our gold chandelier (once we figure out where glider and other furniture are going- so this may be one of the last things we do)
