Cole's Nursery

I went ahead and drafted this post since I knew once we got home I wouldn't have time or energy to make this post (and I'm sure his room will not be this clean again!)

We will probably forever call this the "room that spray paint built."  After deciding on the blue and brown scheme, the brass hardware didn't really fit in.  I had read on some blogs about rubbed bronze metallic spray paint and decided to give it a try.  Joel painted the ceiling fan, door knobs, hinges, and outlet covers.  Those turned out so well I continued to find things that Joel could spray paint for me to work in the room--the dream sign, backer to the bookcase, 2 lamps, picture frames, trashcan, name canvases....

I did help out with a little bit of the painting with acrylics on some decorative blocks, his name letters and a tissue box cover.



Here is the view from the door:

His sleeping area--we'll move the crib here once we move Nate into his big boy bed.

My new comfy glider!






I love how it turned out!
