The nursery is painted!

Instead of fireworks, this year we saw paint cans, brushes, and the inside of Lowes (a couple of times). Matt and I survived another painting adventure and we love the final product, we hope baby bean does too.
We didn't chose typical nursery colors for our baby girl. Rather we chose colors that compliment our house and style. 

Cool Blue = Soar by Behr (we used Valspar paint and had Lowes mix)- Flat Enamel
Dark Brown = Deep Earth by Valspar- Flat Enamel 

I know, I'm not suppose to be on a ladder. Nobody was hurt in the painting of this room, except Matt's finger due to a caulking incident.. he's fine. 

We spent all 3 days painting (4 if you count Matt painting the ceiling on Thursday)
2 coats on the bottom, one coat on top. 3 coats of primer to cover the grey/blue + navy blue that was there when we moved in and the white trim on Sunday to finish off the weekend.


Finished walls

Baby Bean Dimino's first photo in her new room, um and no I wasn't sticking my stomach out on purpose.. she's expanding! 


We painted the inside of the closet the same blue color and will be installing a closet system that we ordered. We'll be sure to post photos of that project.. stay tuned!
