We did it! We finally started painting the nursery on Saturday! After removing what little we did have in the room, we got to work. We painted the walls about three-fourths of the way because we are going to apply wainscoting to the bottom half of the wall.I was so happy when I saw how the paint was drying. It turned out exactly how I wanted it to. Doug and I picked the swatch, and the store tells you it will dry darker, but you don't really know how it will turn out until it is on the wall.
The next step is painting the wainscoting, touching up the crown moulding with white paint and then putting up the wainscoting. Doug said it shouldn't be too difficult. I hope he is right!
Asia (our spoiled kitty who is currently an only child) watched as we coated the walls carefully with soft green paint. I think she knows something is coming to change our lives. And I don't think she is too happy about it!
4 Kind Words:
The walls are a perfect shade of green and I think that Briana will love it. Isn't it daunting to begin the nursery? We are so overwhelmed by the process, but know that slow and steady will be what works for us.
Thank you for your very sweet message on our blog today. It helps to know that others know exactly what we are going through. I'll be reading your blog now that I know where to find you.
Hey there! Thanks for commenting on my blog. I've been to yours before.
The nursery color is great. Ours is similar, but no wainscoting for us Eventually I'll put good pictures on our blog.
I meant to say hello because we must live very close if you are in A-town. We're in K-ville, just down the interstate. And my husband is also in IT.
Please e-mail me sometime. I love meeting more people in this crazy process!!
