Baby's Nursery

 



It started off as our guest room, then it slowly became the storage/getting ready for baby room.

Home for miscellaneous items!



Lots of painting and prepping.

Luis removed the existing closet with a vision of an open storage area.

More prep + paint.  We used the Benjamin Moore Natura paints. 
Safer for our baby boy's nursery.

This is the first piece of furniture from our pottery barn kids set that we received.  LOVE!

Next order of business, install recessed lighting and add compass!  I fell in love with this
 compass idea for the ceiling. Luis was going to paint it on but I found a graphic designer who
created this custom decal for us.  Much easier.

I was set on this twig sign.  I saw it in one of the pottery barn nurseries and thought
 it added such a sweet touch. I had ours custom made via etsy.com

We chose the Jackson bedding from pottery barn kids. I could not resist this mobile!
We received it as a shower gift from dear friends.

Luis and I bought these seashells in San Diego. I made this display with some paper,
 label maker and my handy dandy glue gun.

This was Daddy's first sweater. He wore this as a newborn.
The tag around the base of the hanger is his hospital ID bracelet!



I made this frame to add some warmth from loved ones. All of you will remember signing this at baby Luis' shower.

More finishing touches!

This glider is a life saver! I use it to rock baby to sleep and nurse him. 
This is also my "pumping station" as Luis and I call it!

We use this storage ottoman to house the baby's toys and stuffed animals.
Believe it or not, it is already FULL!

We love the way the room turned out!  We think we made pretty good use of a small space.
Below the crib we have under the bed storage boxes filled with wipes and diapers.



This is the previous closet area. Those storage bins have come in pretty handy!

Daddy has been taking TONS of photos of the baby. 
Here is one of my recent faves!
