So, this week we took the changing table out of Parker's room. He is too long for it anyway, and this way Joe can (in theory) finish the changing table before we have another baby. This should give him a while to finish it since we are NOT making any announcements. It needs to be sanded, stained, have the trim and doors put on it, so there are definite things to be done. We moved my old dresser in Parker's room and put all of his clothes in there. We have switched some of the handles, but need to get more for the 3 lower drawers. They are gold, and we like the brushed nickel. The dresser gives a TON more room for clothes, which I LOVE. Yay for more room! So, anyway, at a garage sale a couple of weeks ago they were selling a ton of wood cabinets, trim, shelves and one of which I had an epiphany on and turned it horizontally instead of vertically (which is how it was initially set up as) and have it setup as a diaper/ wipes cubby- I personally thought it was a brilliant idea (and I secretly think Joe wishes he came up with the idea :) Anyway so that is there, we added another shelf unit which is super cute. So, all in all, Parker doesn't really have much baby stuff in there. Joe and I both agreed that Parker's room is a toddler room, not a baby room. The glider is still in there for now, but I took it out for pictures and it probably won't be in there much longer.
New Shelf Unit- the cabinets were already there, it is the open shelves that are new. (plus in this picture you can see the different colored walls :)
Here is the image from the hall.
See, we need some new drawer handles, but see my ingenious idea for the diaper/ wipe holder?!?!?! I am going to stain it to match, but for now it works- PERFECTLY :) We actually have another shelf too, so if needs be, when we have another one, we can put one in the new baby's room too.
And here is another image of Parker's cute room, did I mention how much I love this green color?? It is probably one of my most favorite colors in the whole house. I think that his room is looking so cute! I still have some more projects to do including taking the frame like what is on the open shelves, painting it black and it will be a cute pictures frame holder. It will be able to fit 5 pictures, so I will have to post some more pictures when that is done. We have so many projects to do, it is nice when we can check one off the list. We also got a new sink and faucet- Can I tell you how excited I am about it??? The sink will look kinda like this- ignore everything EXCEPT the sink :) It is AWESOME! It is a deep sink, which I am super excited about. We got it for $100.00, which is a STEAL cause they are usually about $300-$400
The faucet is very modern and has a sprayer that is attached but not to the spout. So the sprayer will either go to the side or behind the faucet. Anyway, I found this online and normally it is like $399.99 (crazy huh?!) And you can find it on overstock for like $180.00, but we paid $60.00- So anyway, when it is all done, it should look pretty darn awesome!
