Well, since we live in apartment, the baby’s room will NOT be painted. It’s a lovely white color with beige-y brown carpet. The room is huge, so we’re keeping the full size bed in a corner…it seems so silly to get rid of it when we’ll likely be moving to a condo or house in the next couple of years and needing more furniture!

Now that we know Addie is a girl, we’ve decided to go with yellow and purple for the room colors…just something simple and fun…stripes or polka dots maybe.

It’s funny…I love the simplicity of your bookshelf, Amanda! Our bookshelf is stuffed (read: overflowing tubs with more boxes in storage) with books from my school days. We’re enjoying picking out baby books now.

I love posts like these…especially since we’re right in the thick of planning her room!

I love the nursery too!
Very contemporary, but not cold or TOO modern.

I have the same color on my kid’s walls! (I use hot pink and purple as accents).

I love what you did here.

You did a fantastic job with the nursery Amanda! I love the look of contemporary, modern nurseries. I’m like Trina….don’t like baby/character themes at all. I love pink/chocolate color combo, so that is how Ava’s room is decorated.

@Trina – You have the coolest room with you Bombay Kids stuff. I love the deep purples.

@McKenna and Kara – Thanks for coming to the party and indulging me!

@Vered – Thanks! Really I am not that organized in real life. My husband cleans out my purse for me.

@Jeanelle – Thanks for posting a link to your nursery! The scrapbook shadow box looks awesome.

@Sara – It takes forever to finish rooms, so don’t stress too much. I think in the 2 1/2 years we have lived in our house only 2 rooms are near completion.

@Jennifer S – Oh, how I love Ikea. Our Ikea store is about an hour and fifteen minutes away. We can’t go in if we don’t have at least fifty bucks to spend, because I always want too much!
