We’ve always planned to have one of the bedrooms as the nursery, but just didn’t think the day would come so soon. :) We are lucky to receive lots of hand me downs from John’s sister & mom. They gifted us lots of big stuff that has saved us lots of money purchasing new. The stuff was laying around in the garage, so we figured we would hurry and paint the nursery. At least we can start dumping baby stuff in there.
I had the privilege of picking out the paint color of course. I picked out a nice bright blue, what else right? It’s a baby boy after all, but I guess I could have picked green or tan color, something more gender neutral. The decision of blue wall color was easy because we inherited a snoopy bedding set, which has blue in it. So I got a bright blue paint to match our bedding set. I forgot the paint name. It was from the Olympic paint chip, which we took it to Dunn Edwards for paint match.
Again, like the rest of the house, John sanded the oak baseboards and painted them white before we begin painting the walls. Then we had to prime the wall. The original wall color had dark green hint in it.
And then the blue begins….
John very hard at work….
And finally it was done!
The nursery was painted months ago, sometime in August or September. Didn’t get a chance to blog about it until now. =)
