PLANS FOR THE NURSERY

We officially move into our new house today! The floors have been refinished and while we won’t be able to put down rugs for a few weeks, we have the okay to move in our furniture and start getting settled. I can’t wait to start tackling our first round of projects!

I wanted to share my current plans for the nursery as that’s the only room I’m hoping to have remotely complete in the next couple months. I’m sure I’ll make changes once we get started but this should give you the overall look we’re after!

We’re going to install white beadboard all the way around the room and then this gorgeous Quadrille wallpaper up to the ceiling. I can’t wait to see our crib out of the box and assembled! We’re currently waiting on this changer which we customized with round ring pulls and blue painted drawers that match the blue in the wallpaper. A fun twist on a classic piece that we’ll be able to use as a dresser sans changing topper after babies!

I still need to order a chair and a rug for the space so I’d love any recs you’re willing to share! I’m also planning to include several Nantucket Print Shop prints on the walls, including this boat print and this bridge print from our guest bedroom and adding this shot of Steps Beach if we have space and it doesn’t feel too busy. This mirror was previously in our foyer and I think it will work above the changing table and I’m planning to order this side table to go next to the chair while my discount code at 28 Centre Pointe is still valid!

A few other little touches… a monogrammed pillow (these are obviously not his initials, just the product shot they had available!), a letterpress print of Nantucket, and the cutest and softest puppy stuffed animal. I’m hoping to fit in the bookcase from our dining room if it’s not too tight, but the room is really tiny (10’ x 10’) so I’m going to feel it out once the crib and dresser are in place. 

I hope that gives you an idea of how I see the space coming together! Will be sure to document the process on Instagram stories so be sure to follow there if you’re into decorating and home improvement stuff. I can’t wait to see this come to life!
