It has been quite the project transforming the office (or as David prefers, manroom) into a fully equipped nursery for Baby B. Once the furniture was moved and consolidated into the “blue”/multipurpose room we got started painting. First, we primed the dark brown wall and then painted the two tone (tan on top, white on bottom) effect. Project Manager, Grandpa Braun was kind enough to help us measure, cut and install wainscotting in the room. After a final coat of paint the place was really starting to come together! Now on to decorating…
We wanted a nursery that would be versatile and not gender-specific. The skip hop treetop friends bedding was perfect, cute, colorful and not super girly. We tried to build off of the colors in the bedding and add some personal touches. Auntie Laura, Uncle Brad and Cousin Max purchased the banners for our baby shower and they made a great addition to the long wall of the nursery. The red dress hanging on the wall was Gina’s when she was a baby. Grandma and Grandpa Braun gave us the uber comfy glider and ottoman and the special little orange stuff animal on one of the wall shelves. B’s closet is well stocked and includes plenty of cute outfits from Cousin Annika, Auntie Heather and Uncle Keith. The final perfect addition to our colorful decor was the handmade in Brooklyn rattle we received in a package full of goodies from the Oko’s. I think we’re set! Now we just need to meet little B!
