Baby Room



I have 2 months to go!!! My sister flew out and helped me figure out what to do with the random ideas I had for Porter's room (the name we currenly are set on). We tried to stay with chocolate brown and white/cream and it turned out great. We used burlap for the walls some baseboard for molding and I lucked out and found awesome deals on furniture at my favorite place in the world DownEast Home ($350 for the crib-total deal). The white bedding (skirt and bumper) came from different Down East locations and they ended up matching perfectly. We used the extra set of knobs from the dresser for the wall-if anyone has ideas of what to hang on them let me know. And I am still working on making a shelf for the hutch. Now that the room is almost done maybe I can start preparing mentally for baby #2.
