Closet Updates

I apologize for my long absence. I spent the last two weeks working on the nursery and trying to sleep 12 hours a night. It was wonderful. Now I am back with a few updates for you.

First, the closet. The power team below including my dad, Spuncle, Doug, and his dad spent a Saturday bringing our vision for the closet shelving to life.


Please note how Doug mostly lurks around the background with his hands in his pockets.


Once everything was purchased, measured twice, and cut, the four muskateers moved it up to the nursery and attached it.

And voila! The closet has shelves!
The next step is to remove the shelves and paint them white before we put them back in for good.

While the boys were toiling away on shelving, Nina and I got down to business and finished priming and painting the dresser.


Does that outfit look familiar? I am not sacrificing any of my maternity clothing to these painting projects and this is one of the few things I have that fits. I do my best to make it look good. I should also point out that although it looks like we are inside, we are actually in the doorway of the sunroom so it is well ventilated and we are not breathing any fumes.

Next step for the dresser is buying and attaching the new pulls. They look like this.

Coming soon: pictures of completed closet, dresser and painted walls!
