Nursery

This week, the goal is to paint the nursery. I have been SOOOOO excited to paint this room. I have had this idea for YEARS but didn't have a room to paint. I have tried to explain my vision to many people and most have NO idea where I'm going with it. So for now, you will just have to make due with the colors. Next week I will post pictures of the finial design assuming it actually works. There is a good chance it wont and I'll have to scrap it. 

The main color in the room will be this BEAUTIFUL 'Tin' color from the Martha Stewart Living Precious Metals collection.


I have used her paint in the past and I can't say enough good things about it. If you are going to paint and are willing to spend a little extra money, this is the paint to go with. It is such a breeze to work with and even the darkest of colors cover with just one coat! 

There will be one focus wall with multi-colored circles. The circles will have the 6 colors below in them: 


If your wondering what I'm smoking, I understand. The pinks are SOOO close its hard to tell them apart but hopefully the different finishes of the paint it will help each color POP! 

The crib bedding fabric has been picked out and match these colors exactly. Wait... here is a picture of the focus fabric which was the muse for the entire room color scheme. 


It is a BIG BOLD print and the goal is to make the focus wall resemble this fabric and give you the same happy feeling. 

I think I bought 8 or so coordinating fabrics that go along with this that will be all over the room. Curtains, wall art, diaper bags, car seat tent, and much much more! As things are made (by my loving mother and sister) I will post pictures.

I think I have sufficiently rambled on more than I needed to about the room at this point. Can't wait to show off the finial project! 

Until Next Time...
