The Nursery {That’s Still Not Done}

The poor kid is going to be here in less than a week, and the nursery is still not finished. It’s close, but still not done. I’m frustrated that I haven’t gotten this complete and behind me, but I’ve just been taking my time in choosing exactly what I want in there instead of rushing to finish it.

When we had friends over for the shower, I threw some things together to make it look a little more put together. Sadly, things haven’t changed much since then.

Things that would make things more complete would be:

  • Knobs on the armoire {easy fix}
  • Dresser to serve as a changing table {still looking}
  • Art on the walls
  • Rug on the floor {possibly….still haven’t decided}

I’m going today to cross my fingers and hope that a local antique store still has a dresser that I saw, passed up, and was possibly going to be bought by someone else, and may not even be wide enough. I’m making the call first thing today though. If not, off to Andalusia I go tomorrow to see if I can find one there. Let’s hope I do!

In the mean time, I saw this nursery on Pinterest and loved some of the details in it. white armoire

If I find some of the things I’m needing {like at least two}, I’ll hopefully have a half-way complete nursery to share with you. If not, the wait will continue. Maybe it will be at least close to finished one day!

Update:

I went first thing this morning to see if the dresser I had eyed was there or not and if it would be wide enough. I ended up scoring a major deal! I’m about to die to get it home and set up. When I go back tomorrow to pick it up, I’m hoping I can find a few accessories as well.
