the renovation : finola's nursery (so far!)

The nursery is a work in progress.

We have done a LOT of work to it so far,

transitioning it from a blah and musty bedroom,

to a sweet little room for our 

baby girl.

• new flooring
• caulked, spackled, sanded and repainted all the trim
• added door - connecting the front and back of house
• repainted ceiling
• painted walls
• added new light fixture
• re-did the closet into an open concept (and added lighting)
• replaced plastic blinds with bamboo shades.

Well, really Hubby did all of that.

Then came my part...

the decorating.

We used mostly all the same things we used in Cormac's former nursery in our old house.

I've added a few new things, 

and will continue to!

Here are the before and after shots...

I'll do a separate post on the art and accessories...

I have a few things in progress!

Anyway, I'm sure this room is going to change as Finola grows

and begins to show her personality 

and opinions - of which I am sure there will be many!  

I am excited for all of that!
