Am I Nesting?

Rocky and I finally had a couple nights at home this weekend so we decided to tackle Miss Brinley's nursery. First on the list was the changing table/drawers. It came to us a beautiful espresso brown. Since that is not my color of choice, 3 cans of spray paint later, it is now a beautiful black. It was not too hard to put together- Rocky and I made a great team! I inventoried the pieces and was sort of the scrub tech handing the right screws and tools at the right times. I actually enjoyed the process very much, weird I know! Sorry about my looming shadow in every picture, I'm still not very good with my camera.

Here is Rocky with the final piece- the drawer knobs.

And we're done! The baskets I had bought are a little tight but I think they will do just fine.


Saturday night we put the crib together. Isn't my hubby the cutest??

It was much easier than the changer! Here is the blind ophthalmologist surveying the parts- like the squint??

The finished product! I'm not loving the fact that the drop rail hardware is brown instead of black but I think I will get over it.

Here is how we left the nursery on Saturday night. I am still a little overwhelmed with the brightness of it even though parts of me love it. Hopefully when I get some other elements in place, like the bedding and stuff on the walls, I will get more comfortable.

Oh yeah, and I finally finished her quilt. It is by no means a technical success, but I think it looks good. I won't be entering it in any state fair quilt shows or anything but I am pretty proud of it regardless :0).
