Nursery

I've been quite deliquant on posting, and it's time to update the status of a few projects. Here's how we turned this room into Ben's nursery.



First, I prepped the room for paint, laying plastic tarps, and using masking tape to pull back the shag carpet for the future baseboard paint.


Next, we determined how high we wanted to put the chair rail, and marked it with a pencil line. I cut out the edging and rolled the two different colors onto the wall. Then I installed the crown moulding with a rope light, and the chair rail.


Once the painting was done, I pulled back the tarps, installed the valence, and we were ready for the furniture to arrive.



I should have done this while the tarps were still down, but we added some wall art... two shelves and a stenciled poem.


The final step was to add Ben.
