Finally Finished


Well seeing as the end of October is upon us and we're due to have this baby in less than a month....we finally finished the baby's room. What was thought to be a small adventure and only take a weekend ended up being weeks on end due to the ordering of the wallpaper. A small note to everyone out there wanting to wallpaper.....don't order just enough to the square inch because what we found out was there is A LOT of wastage that goes on. When you have to match up patterns you throw tons of wallpaper out. So after 3 separate ordering adventures taking a month and a couple of weeks, the baby's room is finished.


Here's a picture of the bedding, we're doing a bug theme and I think it's working out perfect. Even the sheets match and have little bugs on them :o)
The dresser is from our room and we ended up getting a new one for us. As much as a change table would have been nice, we just don't have the room and we both think that this will work out just right.
Here is a pictures of one of the bugs above the dresser. When we were picking out paint and wallpaper I fell in love with these bugs. They were in a roll of wallpaper so I bought a roll and cut them out. Note to self and anyone else that cares, floating frames only come in black, brown and silver, if you want white you have to spraypaint them yourself.
With less than a month to go, I think we are set. The room's set up and our bags are packed.

It is absolutely adorable!! I love the bug theme, and the wallpaper was definitely worth the wait.

And about that monkey Konrad has, we had one at work too--and I agree, they're tons of fun!
