Of course it had to be Kilzed and there were many holes in the walls from mole screws, so there was quite a bit of taping, mudding, and sanding. Many hours and two coats of paint later, it looks like a whole new room! Jeff and I put the crib together without getting frustrated at each other! We got the crib at a garage sale, the bedding set at a garage sale, and my mom found the changing table at a garage sale and refinished it with help from my grandma and dad. My mother in law bought the bassinet at a garage sale, also, so this room has been done very inexpensively! Now I need to put up curtains and put something on the walls... not sure what yet, but I've got 7 weeks, right?? :-) Enjoy the pictures!

Oh, it looks really good! I especially like the white furniture and patchwork bedding. great job!
Jean, baby's room is just sooo soothing on the eyes. (Really, I don't know how any child could have fallen asleep in that room; while the motif was cute, the paint was definitely "paint tape" blue!)
Can't wait to see the finished product...as when baby is actually in the room!
Take care,
Val
