ummm...i have the nesting bug BAD. since i don't have school to occupy myself, i am getting crafty with the room...wowza. here's a pic of jamie and i we took tonight:
momma's gettin big!
yesterday we scored a SWEET dresser from craigslist. we went to reno to get it. the woman we bought it from has a "shabby chic" furniture refurbishing business. hmmm...maybe none of you know how i feel about "shabby chic", so let me tell you: vomit. haha.
so i am going to repaint it white to match the crib, (it's a distressed cream right now) and line the drawers with pretty papers and change out the knobs. you can see in this pic our nice new walls and trim! it looks great.
so the changing pad will go on top, and i seriosuly cannot tell you...how much joy this dresser brings me. ha! i just love it. i know that most people would think it's strange that i don't just leave it as is, but they do not understand just how anal i can be. and i love this stuff. maybe part of me is afraid that once our girl's here, i won't have time to do stuff like this anymore. that's probably the origin of nesting right there.
thanks for reading our blog!

ReplyDeletei won't even have to scrape...just paint over it. phew! i got a nightstand too, which was oak with a clear coat. kinda nasty, too. i rented a sander and sanded it the other day, all i have to do now is paint it!
