Gray, White & Yellow Nursery

When I found out I was having a boy I immediately started pinning different ideas for nurseries.  I knew Gray, White and Yellow was the color scheme I was going to use so I started scowering stores for all things nursery!  Surprisingly it waspretty difficult to find decorations in yellow, I was shocked by the lack of yellow nursery decor.

Here's what I came up with:

The one thing that I love most about this room is that it could easily be changed to make into a girls room.  Just change the Yellow accents to pink/purple or another girly color.  It could also serve as a gender neutral nursery if you didn't know what you were having!

Here's all the Details to my Gray, White & Yellow Nursery (everything was purchased in 2013, so I'm not sure what items will still be available):

Here's Where we started, I sure am happy with how it has evolved!

The kitties were VERY interested in all of the new stuff!

No kitty, this is NOT your bed!

This isn't either!!!

The one thing I love most about the nursery is that it's very calming and peaceful.  I rock the baby in that rocking chair at least 4 times a day and I absolutely love it.  One of the best investments we have ever made! I like that the arms of the chair are really low so I can rest my arms on them when I'm rocking the baby, it really helps!

What do you think of the nursery?  Would you use this color scheme?

I'm happy to say that the nursery is FINALLY coming along.  Right when I hit 20 weeks I started panicking that we ONLY had 20 weeks left! I know, I know, it sounds like a long time, but considering I have 5 baby showers, the Holidays ANDThird Trimester exhaustion I thought we better get started!!

The crib is on order and scheduled to arrive at the end of October!  I CAN NOT WAIT!!

I went shopping last weekend and bought the glider from Buy Buy Baby.  Thankfully they had them in inventory and it's already all set-up.

A little bit of Inspiration:

Here's what we've done so far:

• Painted the Entire Room Gray (Behr Silver Sateen Home Depot)
• Painted White stripes on one wall for an accent (Behr Snow Fall, Home Depot)
• My husband and Father-In-Law installed crown molding (Home Depot)
• Installed a New Light ($39.99 Lowes)

It might seem a little under-whelming to you, but we have already put a huge amount of work into this nursery and this is just the beginning!

I bought a dresser from a garage sale for 50 bucks and I'm planning on re-doing it for a changing table!

I can' wait to get more done and start decorating!  What do you think about it so far??
