Current Project: Living Room Before

Thursday, September 28, 2017

We are slowly settling into our new home, and I must admit that unpacking with a 6 month old is much harder than packing with a 4 month old. It's fun having a fresh start when you move into a new house, but it can definitely be overwhelming!

Things are still in transition over here, so I thought I'd start by sharing before pictures of the space. We started out with a dark and dated feeling living room, so I was excited to freshen it up with a fresh coat of paint! If you look closely you can see that they carried this awful yellow/ mustard colour all the way up to the ceiling. Despite how much I raved about this colour in my previous post, it's not a colour I wish to have on my walls.

 
The first order of business was to give the ceilings a fresh coat of white paint, which you can see has already made a huge difference in freshening up this room! I can't wait to show you the new wall colour!

Current Project: Nursery [BEFORE]

Thursday, January 26, 2017

We have been working hard on getting the baby's room ready, and I'm so excited to start putting in all the little touches. The colour came out so beautiful and I can't wait to show you! But what's a project without before pictures?

Here is what the room looked like when we moved in a couple of years ago (before it became our junk collection room/ my dressing room), and in the process of getting the painting started.


 

You can see a sneak peek of the furniture.

Here is the floorplan I currently have, but it's a long room and I feel like there's so much empty space in the middle of room. Any suggestions as to how I could rearrange things? Keep in mind the vents and the large window in the middle of the room is low so I don't want to block it with the crib.

Current Project: Nursery Inspiration

Tuesday, November 15, 2016

When I started to pin and save photos for our "future nursery" a few years ago, it was always hypothetical and I had so many varying styles. I always thought a bright kid's room would be fun, but then again it didn't seem calming enough for a newborn. Then when we got pregnant, I started pinning gender neutral rooms that I knew could transition easily through the first few years. And then, we found out we were having a girl, I was instantly drawn to pink! What a surprise eh?
We have purchased some of the furniture and are hoping to paint this week and start getting the room ready for our sweet baby girl.  


The bright colours were so fun and I loved the vibrant feel it had, but I felt like we needed to go with a warmer palette. We'll save the Cool & Colourful theme for a toddler room rather than a nursery.


I liked the idea of something gender neutral, with warm wood tones and hints of a safari theme. A plush rug to cuddle up and play with baby and lots of fun art work would be the perfect place for our new babe.



When I saw this theme of neutrals with a pop of soft pink, I knew it was the perfect mix of modern and girly, and would create a calm space for baby. So, we went with the Soft Neutrals palette and I'm so excited to see it all come together.
