It's a Girl!- Decorating Plans

Well if you didn't know already, I found out today that I'm expecting a little baby girl on January 4th. With my previous 2 girls I had made some cute bedding with a pink white and green princess frog theme. Now I am ready of something new and am dreaming of this....


Of course it is Pottery Barn :), and it is called the Coco Dot. I love the turquoise and other colors. I also love the ric rac and the overall simpleness of it. I think it would be pretty easy to make, but I don't find it that bad of a deal at $159 for the set, especially if you have a coupon.

I might make the quilt with name appliqued on it like this (from Melissa at polkadotchair.com)tutorial found at Moda Bake Shop- so cute!



I also plan to keep the changing table/dresser turquoise!! So fun. It had painted it previously to be a buffet, but it will work much better for the baby's new room. Of course there will be a changing pad on top and some shelves added with baskets for decorations, toys, or books.






If I can convince my hubby, I want to add board and batten. Thrifty Decor Chick shows us how.

What do you think?

  5. Congratulations! Your ideas for your nursery sound adorable and as you know I love that turquoise buffet! You were so kind and helped with me on one of my first pieces when I inquired about that color. It will work well as a changing table. I can't wait to see how you design your nursery. Have fun!
