Nesting At Its Best

The last few days I have been in a tizzy.

I guess this is what you call nesting!

Making the bed each morning

(something I haven't done consistently

since I lived at Mom and Dad's),

doing piles of laundry,

purging our "junk" and donating to good will.

Organizing the closet

and baking.

Oh,

did I mention that I completely

reorganized the spare room?

Yup,

I am talking moving the bed,

moving my vanity into the spare room

and the desk into our room.

It feels good!

I have officially decided what to do

in the nursery.

Combining the vintage feel that I love

and the bold colors

I think I've come up with something fun.

Do you remember my original inspiration?

Well, with that combined with this room/house

{I LOVE that yellow door!}

the room is complete... in my mind.

Our friend and neighbor James

bought a can of grey paint

to paint his bedroom

and he is going to share it with me.

So I will use that color

to paint one wall of 

the nursery/spare room.

Against this wall will be the change table,

some shelves and a chair for nursing.

I have been collecting some funky frames

which I will paint a fun yellow colour,

and frame those witty sayings and alphabet posters

you see in the above two blogs.

The crib will go in the corner of the room

against the other wall.

I am going to get some

cheap and fun Chinese lanterns 

in various sizes to hang above her crib.

Right now,

I am debating whether or not

to keep them all yellow

(maybe different shades of yellow)

or do a few colors.

Edolbina is in the midst of making me

some bunting (or flags) that I will hang up as well!

Perfect way to complete that "vintage" feel.

Either way,

I am very excited

about it.

I think it will be fun,

the right amount of girly,

trendy and still suitable for a spare room.

Oh apartment living!
