Progress in the nursery

Finally!!  We have finally started in Baby Jaxson's room!  Mimi and Pops (my parents) graciously offered part of their Saturday to help paint the main color in the nursery.  With four of us working in the room and the walls only requiring one coat, we were finished in less than two hours.  That is my kind of house project!  I just wish everything was that easy.

Here are some "before" shots of the nursery with the blah tan walls.  We only taped the windows, because we are planning to repaint all of the white trim.



 And here are some "during" shots with all the wonderful painters.




And finally the "after."  We went with a satin finish Benjamin Moore color called Blue Haze.  I love how it looks with the white trim and dark floors.


You can see where we are testing out some other blue colors.  We are going to eventually add stripes on this wall.



It has been a huge relief to have the main color finished, but there is still much to do.


  • re-paint all trim
  • paint the stripes
  • paint bedroom door and closet doors
  • install new outlet covers
  • put together the furniture
  • install curtain rods and hang curtains
  • add some artwork to the walls
