Nursery Plans
This is what Isaac's nursery currently looks like (plus lots of baby loot thrown in). We are kind of at a stand-still for now because Josh working on our emergency renovation of the downstairs bathroom. Hopefully, that project will be completed soon so the baby room can be worked on!Here are the colors for the room! The walls will be the bold yellow with the lighter yellow sponged or ragged on top of it (I love faux finishes and they look great on our old plaster walls). The beadboard/wainscotting and trim will be painted white.

The sage green color will be used the most... for the background of the border, the corner amoire (shell has been built in place so far), and changing table/dresser. The other colors will be used as accents in the border, wall decor, and accessories. The blue fabric will be used for many things... the valance, lining of baskets, curtains in armoire, and sewn stars for wall decor. Josh's mom is even incooperating the fabric in the quilt and bumpers she is making for the baby!
Here is an example of one of the changing tables Josh has made. Our's will be similar in style with a removable top and cubbies for storage baskets. We plan to paint our's the sage green color.This is the crib we have purchased for our little guy! 
The overall theme of the nursery is sun, moon, and stars... but, with some abc's thrown in as well. I will be hand-painting a border above the beadboard with the celestial theme and letters. Josh also plans to install an extra electrial outlet and provide overhead lighting in the room. We have a cream speckled berber rug in the shape of a circle for the wood floor. Thanks for taking the time to read about the nursery and we'll post updated pics once we get more finished!
