This weekend we have officially started work on the nursery ... that is we have completely gutted one of the spare (when I say spare I mean junk storage) rooms in preparation for it's transformation into a beautiful nursery.
The room in question is next to our bedroom, I've always thought that it would be the perfect room for a nursery so maybe subconsciously that is why we've never actually done anything with it ... other than slap on some while paint and store a ridiculous amount of stuff/rubbish in there!
So yesterday we (mainly hubby) set to work, emptying and stripping out everything that was in there. The contents of the room are now either in a more suitable place, in a charity bag, sorted for recycling or at the tip! It was really therapeutic to see 5 years worth of accumulated 'stuff' be dramatically reduced into what we actually use. We've also removed the flooring and skirting boards as we'll be replacing these as part of the nursery.
I've taken some photos of the very empty room but I'll keep them until later in the month so you can see before, during and hopefully after! I'm really looking forward to putting the room together - it's great when you've pictured something for so long.
We've decided to go for a bright and cheerful yellow/lemon on the walls, I want the colours to be vibrant and not washed out. I think it will look great against the modern white furniture and patterned bedding that we have chosen! I'm going to do a post later on with a breakdown of items and sources ... don't want to give too much away at this point!
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend.
