A couple of weeks ago my mom came up to help me get the room ready for the baby. And man did we work hard! O.K., by we, I mean my mom! My mom painted the room and it looks great! This room used to be blue and it was the boys play room. It is amazing how some pink can really transform this into such a girlie space. I am very proud of myself because we did this room on a very small budget. I used so many things that I just happened to have and we refinished them. It was really fun. I love that I have some old pieces that used to be my grandparents, it gives it some special meaning. I think my grandma would be proud at how far her little dresser has made it! Anyways, here are the photos of the room!
This is the dresser that we refinished and got the cutest knobs for. Thanks Anthropology! I have to say this turned out better than I imagined and it is my favorite piece in the room. This dresser has seen my through my two boys and before that used to be my grandma's! It is one old, but great dresser!
Did the art myself, painted the lamp and made the shade!
Did the art myself and painted and redid the baskets.
The curtains really make the room come together. I was able to use rods that I had already had from before and they look perfect in the room.
My mom stripped and painted the chairs. These are old chairs that were my grandparents and we think were my aunt Isabelle's before that. We painted the shelves, and even painted one of the bird houses. We got so much done that week, it was awesome! There is still a few things that I need to do in this room, so when those are done I will post more pictures!
We are ready for you little girl!!!

Looks great, Erin!! I bet it was fun to do a little pink rather than blue this time. We are so excited for you guys. I'm sure all three of your guys are just going to melt for this little girl! That is so cool too how you were able to incorporate old furniture that has been in your family for a long time. Maybe your little girl will be able to use it for her little girl someday. Can't wait to meet her when she makes her arrival!
I love it, Erin! The room looks like it is fit for a princess! I remember that dresser in Carter's room when you lived in Draper.
