A little tour of our nursery (so far)....


While we're not completely finished decorating little Zachary's nursery just yet (yes, that's the name we chose!), I thought I'd share some photos now. After all, once he arrives I'd probably never get around to it.


Our nursery contains several DIY's...
First off, we turned a basic Ikea chest into a change table, thanks to my father - who built a fitted box that sits snugly on top. It holds a change pad and even has a separate space for baby products. It's great!


I bought this adorable felted garland from Anthropologie - it's supposed to be a Christmas tree garland, but I think it makes a cute nursery addition.


As I already posted about here, I made some fabric bunting flags to hang above the crib. 
(they were so much easier to make than I thought they would be)




Another fun DIY was making this big chalkboard from a piece of wood, which I simply painted with chalkboard paint and mounted to the wall (again, thanks for the woodwork help, dad!).


(of course I couldn't help but draw on it once it was up on the wall and begging for attention!)


Well that's all for now... 
I think the room is bright & light & welcoming.

Now if only the little guy would arrive already!
