Beanette's Nursery

A lot of people have asked if we have decided what to do with our little girls nursery and we have! So I thought I would share some of the details. We are moving her into the office/guest room. We have already begun moving everything out and only have the bookcase left before it is empty. The walls are painted chocolate brown and my goal is to keep them that color. I love the color and painting with a toddler sounds a little crazy to me! We ordered her crib and dresser at the end of December and they came yesterday! We went with the expresso finish as this matches Mason's set so if they want to switch dressers when they are older they can. Both of their cribs are convertible and can be made into toddler beds, then full size, so we are keeping Mason in his bed but will try to see if he likes the toddler bed.

As for the bedding, I love the Penelope crib bedding set AND luck would have it, PB sent me a coupon for 20% off one item. When we met to get our pieces- they had a special on three pieces sold together, so the sweet saleslady gave us the 20% off the 3 piece special and let us use the coupon to buy the fourth piece of the set so it was complete! We have the bumper, quilt, bed skirt and a sheet. I will need to get a few more sheets but we will wait until the have another sale.

My other big plan for the nursery is to monogram beanette's initials on the wall. So I am hoping we will have a name picked out before she comes, and then I can go ahead and monogram it. (we will still keep the name a secret but you may at least come closer to guessing! So without further adue. Here are pictures of the bedroom furniture and bedding!

  2. I DEFINITELY want to see your dark walls and furniture together. I'm debating dark or white furniture with dark chocolate walls.
