Nursery: Before

After hours and hours of searching and deliberation, I finally found the perfect wallpaper for the nursery. I ordered this perfect wallpaper from a local shop, and picked it up last night. I then went straight to Home Depot, where I had them make me a gallon of the perfect color paint to match the perfect wallpaper. (We're covering one wall and painting the others.) The best part of all of this? Total cost of perfect paint and perfect wallpaper was less than $100.

Of course I couldn't wait to get started, so I immediately broke out the brushes and rollers and got to work. But first, I took these "before" pictures of the room that we've called "The Nursery" since we bought this house almost three years ago.






I painted one wall last night, and taped up a piece of the wallpaper to see the print and color together.

How does it look?

Perfect.
