Bipartisan Bliss: Nursery Tour

Baby Wotring's room is done! We spent the weekend putting the finishing touches on it and both admit -- we love how it turned out!

Baby girl's room used to be the hubs' office but we always knew we'd turn the room into a nursery when the time came to start our family. Our other bedroom is larger than the nursery and because of that, we wanted to keep it as the guest room especially since we suspect we'll be having more visitors with the little nugget's arrival.

If you know me, you probably know my favorite color is purple so of course when I started pinning nurseries on Pinterest I gravitated towards purple rooms. I just love the look of purple and this aqua color together so it didn't take long for me to settle on it and get the hubs' buy-in. And by "buy-in" I mean forced consent :)

We went with a more modern looking crib and bought a regular dresser to use as a changing table (don't worry, the hubs secured the changing pad to the dresser with some industrial strength velcro). Both are pretty gender neutral so we can use for any future Baby Wotring's that come along.

Baby Wotring already has quite the book collection so we got a cute little bookshelf from Target. We'll probably need to relocate this to another place once she's standing and more mobile since it could prove to be hazardous, but for now it works next to her crib.

Love the handy teal cart we found at Ikea

We are both OBSESSED with our glider from Babies R Us. It glides, swivels and reclines and will surely get a lot of use in the months to come.

Baby Girl's view of her mobile

I DIY'd the mobile above her bed which was a really fun project the hubs helped me with. My inspiration was a mobile I saw on Etsy but instead of paying $60 I figured I might as well make my own and I'm really glad I did.

Love this!

I loved the idea of doing a little gallery wall in the nursery especially since it allowed me to combine a moose with a few craft projects. I DIY'd the heart hoop that's part of her little gallery wall and I have a few other fun craft projects I want to add to the wall once Baby Wotring has a name! The lovely little shadow box was crafted by BFF Randi and will get filled in with a new picture and her name and birthday once baby girl arrives.
