NURSERY ON A SMALL BUDGET

I realized I haven't shared any pictures of my daughter's Nursery.

 Since we got rid of most of our baby stuff when we moved from NY to WI, the biggest challenge is working with what we have. Sabrina is our 3rd (and last!) child so I refuse to buy anything new. The only thing I purchased is the crib which I got from Craigslist. It is safe to say that I only spent about $100 on this room...





{My favorite element is the DIY frames wallpaper - I used contact paper and permanent marker inspired by Graham and Brown.}



{The bird mobile is another DIY}

The room is tiny and is actually a bonus room off of my other daughter's room (separated by a walk-in closet).  It will eventually be their study room/library.

  3. So creative! And I love the Eames lounger! So much more chic that the usual baby's room.

  5. how did you attach the contact paper to the wall? just the regular adhesive it came with or did you prep it some how? I have contact paper I'm thinking of using as wallpaper but I"m not sure how to go about it. Thanks!

  6. My first thought upon scrolling down was, "ooh, she sprang for the G&B wallpaper!". Your DIY job looks GREAT..wouldn't have expected all that for $100 (and when did you move to WI??).
