Nursery Before & After

While I've been busy baking Abishai for the last 10 months, Matt has been just as busy for the last 4 finishing his room.  Matt put in an enormous amount of blood & sweat into all of the little details and took the task as his own.


Originally the room was a buttercream color and we had decided that a light gray/silver would look good instead.  With the help of some friends, he had the room painted and ready to go in a just a few days.  Our parents bought us our crib and glider which we then added to the room.

We found a wooden four piece dresser set on Craig's List for only $275.  Matt refinished all of the furniture on his own bit by bit over the next few weeks.

I found our decal set on Etsy and we customized the colors of the birds and leaves.  It was a lot easier than I had expected to put the decals up and I had a lot of fun getting all crafty since this would be one of my only contributions to Abe's bedroom.

Here are some final detail shots of his room with all the finishing touches.

  1. Gorgeous!!!! Love what you guys did with it, It looks clean and neat and super fancy! On that point, good job taking pictures now. Once your little man is here, it'll never be clean or neat again and you want to take pictures of it again ;-)
