Show us your nursery

I'm having triplets, so our nursery is going to have three cribs in it eventually.

Hubby put two of the three cribs together. We think we're going to put the third crib in our bedroom, but don't want to do that quite yet. We're going to leave it in the box and put it in the basement for now. Won't take hubby long to put it together when we need it.....he's already done two! :haha:

I haven't got any crib sheets yet, so it's just the mattress and mattress cover on it right now. I did buy cute crib skirts on eBay for $8 though! I love that they match each other, plus they match the colours that we're using.

We had painted the walls yellow a couple years ago in preparation for the first baby that we lost, so that part was already done. We had the carpets cleaned yesterday afternoon in the house so that things would be fresh and disinfected for when the babies arrive (plus, we had to get rid of any leftover residue from our cat that we had to put down a couple months ago because it started pooping everywhere!).

In our house, the nursery is right next to the master bedroom so it works out perfectly.

So, here's before shots with the room empty:

I bought the pictures on the wall in the two pictures below at Beall's Outlet stores in Florida a year or two ago when I was visiting my grandparents. I absolutely love them!

The little rocking chair was hubby's from when he was a kid. His Mom was going to get rid of it a couple years ago because it was broken in a couple places. I took it and gave it to my Dad who's awesome with woodworking and he made it as good as new and refinished it. It's perfect now!

The empty space along the wall between the crib and the door will fit the third crib perfectly when we set it up.

You've done it so nicely, love the pictures too.
What a beautiful room though even without everything in its gorgeous.
Good luck!
 
Hi Ladies,

I have added baby's initial to the tag toy as I thought it looked like something was missing but the 'm' came out skew, lol. I also made a mobile. The colors are white, pink and navy (it came out really dark on the photo)

Love the nursery Mrs IKW, especially the name on the wall, so pretty!

Jolene, as always loving the felt items! How did you do the hoop of the mobile and how did you hang it? I am totally stealing ideas! :haha:

Go ahead Hodbert. I am so proud of my mobile. It looks better in the nursery than on the photo though. I used the inner hoop of an embroidery hoop, cut strips of felt and wrapped it around. I used felt strips to hang it as well. It was so much fun to make!

Happigail and Mrs IKW, congrats on stunning nurseries!
 
You all have beautiful nurseries. My house isnt big enough at the moment for a nursery but hopefully once i move i can start on one for my little girl. So excited! Just need to find another place to live first :dohh:
 
Happigail - You've done a great job, what a beautiful room :)

Yey im so happy, finally had confirmation on my new house this morning, it needs some work doing which is being done before i move in but should be ready to go from next weekend! I can actually start looking at nursery things now :happydance:

The room that will be the nursery is tiny, just a little box room but it will be big enough for what we need in it. Im so excited :D

I will get pictures as im doing it :)
 
Jessa – I love your nursery! What an absolutely gorgeous room to have to be able to use – that bay window is beautiful and lets in so much light.

Happigail – your nursery is adorable too :D the difference in the before and after is amazing that must’ve taken so much work.
 
Wow that's a big difference!!! I will post before and after pics of our nursery, as soon as I can...we're at a stand still till we can get the carpet done, then things should move more quickly...hoping by November sometime it should be completed. :)
 
Hey girls, here's my crafty things so far:

My butterfly (not as good as Jolene's)

My bunting

My knitted teddybear - he just needs a face!

I love the teddy! you knitted that yourself??

Thank you! :blush: It wasnt that hard really, just followed a pattern. I used to knit all sorts of dolls and things when I was young so it's very similar to doing those. Although I am finding that too much knitting gives me rib ache...weird.
 
I have no skills.. I need to learn how to DO SOMETHING! hahah... Your crafts are adorable :) I get rib aches from sleeping on my side :dohh:
