The Nursery Reveal!

So here it is, in all its glory :) Not going to lie, I was probably just as leery on how it was all gong to turn out as the rest of you. I felt pretty good about it since I was basically just copying this fabulous nursery, but was still a little apprehensive the fabric decisions and accessories I picked were going to mix well together.

Crib Bedding 

Everything but the sheets are made by my momma. It is all Premier brand fabric ordered from fabric.com at about $8/yard. Below are links to each print I ordered and be sure to do a google search for a coupon code before you place your order. I think I got 15% off and they usually have free shipping on orders of $35 or more. They were super fast and I got the shipment a few days after I placed it. In total, I spent about $80 on all the fabric after the discount.

• Blue, White and Green Dot - http://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=62cd12d8-2855-4e07-9ea9-80d57efb2520

• Orange with White Circles - http://www.fabric.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=ed9a8a8e-6d00-489d-8b11-7cca18363b37

My mom made the orange piping on the bumper pads with cording from the local fabric store ($0.95/yard) and the orange and white circle fabric I ordered.

Sheets - They are from Target and part of the Come Ride with Me crib bedding collection. They are about $12/sheet. I can't seem to find them online and only one of the local Target's carried the sheets in the store. So, if you cant find them, try a different Target and you might have some luck.

Bed bedding

Comforter - from Ross Dress for Less and was less than $20. I had found one on Walmart.com that I almsot ordered and here is a link to that one-  http://www.walmart.com/ip/Your-Zone-Reversible-Comforter-and-Sham-Set-Cobalt-Light-Blue/10877972

Sheets- Good old Walmart find, I think they were about $15 for the full size set!

Bed skirt - made by mom from the blue and white zig zag fabric.

I then had the canvas printed from shutterfly.com. Warning, getting a canvas this size IS on the expensive side, but I knew what I was getting myself into and wanted it anyway. The size I have is 24 x 36 and 1.5'' thick and was $150. They had a promotion for free shipping on orders over $30 and I had a $20 voucher from some maternity gift bag I got so it helped bring the price down a bit. Also, they do go on sale from time to time so keep an eye on it. I've seen them for as low as $120. There are less expensive places online, but many require you put the canvas together yourself and I honestly didn't want to mess with it. 

And I found this tutorial on Pinterest after I ordered it, you could always try to make your own - http://www.howdoesshe.com/diy-canvas-prints

Frame is from Ikea

Furniture

Crib is the Babyletto Mercer 3 in 1 Convertible Crib with Toddler Rail and we ordered it from amazon.com

Book Cases - Both the one under the window and the one we are using as a changing table are from Ikea, the EXPEDIT collection. Super cheap and easy to put together.

All the inserts in the changing table are part of the EXPEDIT line. This gets a little expensive, the inserts range from $20 - $35 each, but we already had the book case and I liked that getting the white inserts made it match the crib. The cloth baskets we already had too, but they were originally from Target. I would suggest looking at some of Ikeas's cheaper dressers. You can pick up some cute white ones for about $200 - $300, being about the same price as buying the bookcase AND all the inserts. 

Light Fixture - Another Ikea find. The FILLSTA pendant lamp, the 19" one.

Chair - Ikea POANG chair and it really is comfortable. They make it in a rocker too, but I didn't like it as much when I tested it out. This one has a little bounce to it and I think will work just fine.

Toy thing - Ikea kid section, I think it was less than $10.

Laundry basket - Ross Dress for Less find - it was $12. This is a great time of year to search for this stuff. All the dorm room items are out and in fun colors.

Windows

Cornice Boards - these came with the house and this is the second time I have recovered them. Super easy to do, just some fabric and a good old staple gun. Covered these with the orange and white circle fabric from fabric.com.


Drapes - I looked long and hard for these. I wanted to get the blackout drapes but had a hard time finding white ones, go figure. I guess white isn't too room darkening. So, after LOTS of trial and error on colors, I chose these Eclipse green ones. They have a bunch of versions which are different shades of green. I found these at Walmart for about $12 a pannel, they aren't too bright of a lime green and I'm pretty pleased with the color. Mom made the tie backs with the left over blue, white and green dot fabric.
