...Your DIY baby girl nurseries!
We've decided that we're going to clean out the office and transform it into a nursery for baby girl. I have no idea what I want to do theme/color-wise. No clue. It's also going to be almost all DIY because we're on a fairly tight budget.
Help inspire me!

I'm not finished, but so far I've DIY'd the crib skirt, a quilt, removable cushion covers for the glider, a new seat cushion for the glider, a wreath for her door, and I'm refinishing a dresser that will double as a changing table. My pics are all iPhone pics until I can get my good camera back.

I'll take some pictures for you tomorrow! If you hunt back far enough in my IG, there are some on there. it's not really DIY - it's not really themed either. Just pink paint with white trim, breathable bumper and sheet, a repurposed/painted dresser and a cube organizer from target

@evansjamie: The cat is a nice touch! You made that quilt?! Amazing!

@Dandelion: Thank you! The hardest part for me was sewing all the squares together, just because it was tedious. And that's my Autumn, she was not pleased that her sister got to the crib cave first.

oh i found some photos! i thought they were all off my computer. I repainted this dresser (bought for $50 at BRU because it was missing the top changer part) a dark brown/espresso, though it looks black in the photo. (oh how I miss all those tiny clothes!!)
#2 - I put a print of Lady in a large frame from Michael's, and once she was born we put her birth announcement in the smaller one
#3 - we bought letters at Jo-Anns (each with a coupon!) and DH painted them white.

Hmm, mine's a little light on the DIY, though I DID make most of the wall art(in the crib), and refinished the rocking chair. Here are a few pics.

@Dandelion: thank you! it's *really* pink, I actually may or may not have cried when we first painted. It was pinker than the chip appeared, lol - it's shy little piglet by behr, but we had them tone it down with some white (before we painted..so imagine the original color!!). I saved a ton of those prints from my childhood - you get them when you pre-order a dvd @ the disney store.

This was E's nursery in our old house. I wanted to stay away from pink on the walls or pink overload; she was gifted enough pink clothes, toys, blankets, etc. so it had buttery yellow walls and a sky ceiling. My mom painted the ceiling.

@yoursilverlining: I love your nursery! I wish my ceiling was flat so I could paint it.
@JamieLee: Thank you!

Here's a link to our nursery. I DIY re-painted the dresser, nightstand, and ladder. Did a bunch of small DIY projects around the room (letters, re-did the lampshade, changing pad tray, paintings, etc.)
