Bed Rest Diaries: Catching Up Part 4



In the months of October and early November my bigger DIY projects became smaller and started to mainly center around the designing and planning our second child's nursery.

Michael's childhood night stands


Refinished with Aqua paint, distressed, glazed and given new hardware.  The perfect accessory for our guest room.
Constructed this chalkboard with decorative base boards and birchwood from Home Depot.

The chalkboard is complete with Aqua trim and black chalkboard paint.





Now onto the nursery! The two main projects I had in our baby's room was to refinish our old dresser  with gray paint and new white hardware as well as refinish and transform my old college desk into a changing table.




Before
After




 This is what the nursery currently looks like.  This picture was painted by Michael's grandmother and was one of the first paintings we received from her after getting married.  It lived for 4 years above our bed as we moved from our house in Fresno to our house in Sacramento.   But as many of you know, I opt for change quite frequently and it was time for our beloved painting to find a new home.  The new home was found and  it has been such a joy to build our second child's nursery around this family heirloom.
