drumroll please... office/nursery photos, complete with crib!

yay! the crib arrived! when mom and dad purchased it for us, mom ordered assembly with the delivery -- so the gentleman arrived today and assembled it for us. it's all together and looks awesome in the room.

since dave and i have done so much work on the office/nursery space in the last couple of months, and i hadn't taken any photos yet, i just decided to take pics of the whole room together. there are a few things left to do, like getting the graphic for the wall above the crib and finishing off the closet so we can store more items in there. but other than that, we're done! and i am so happy with how it came out.

check it all out below!

a look inside the office/nursery from the living room.

when you open the door, you see my work space directly in front of you. we got a new desk to fit in the smaller space, and i scored a great chair that i'm totally in love with. the area rug is made up from floor tiles from FLOR. it worked out perfectly.

if you turn to your right, you'll see the baby's chest of drawers in front of you. the curtains are on both the windows and the closet, since there wasn't enough space to constantly open/close a door. all the curtains and the chest are from ikea.


putting together the items on top of the chest has been fun! the lamp was mine in the space already, and has a fun drawn city scene on it. the piggy bank is from aunt loren, the growth chart is from aunt carrie. the dark basket on the left is filled with books, all of which are from the syracuse girls. and the basket on the right has our froggy and duckie sock puppets in it (thank you uncle howie and aunt helene!) as well as a couple of other fun items from the shower.

YAY!!! OUR CRIB!!! i'm so excited about this. the crib is the oslo crib by berg. we got it in a cognac finish with white gates and nobs (that's a storage drawer underneath, handy for bedding and blankets).


the crib skirt and crib blanket (which is backed by a soft fleece) are custom-made by etsy seller swell-by-stephanie. the fabric is from ikea. i just love that it's gray and white, nice and neutral and looks great with all the colors in the room. thanks for the bedding aunt joan!


this shot is just to show what's left to do -- the wall above the crib really needs the graphic. as soon as we get that, we'll be set.

i'm so excited to have this room together, and it looks even better than i thought it would. yay!

It all looks wonderful. I can't wait to see it for myself (and with my niece/nephew in it)
