baby room design

Stephanie and I have been spending too much time trying to decide what sorts of furniture and colors to put in the baby room.  Of course we've already shown some before and after paint photos, and now we want to reveal a little more of the design theme we've had in mind.

The fabric choice was not a fast one, in fact we've had lots of discussions and input from friends.  I think the colors make for a happy setting for the little guy when he arrives.  Which, by the way, we forgot to mention here on the blog.  I guess that late is better than never!

We've already purchased the crib and are in the process of painting a sideboard table we were using as a tv stand that will become the changing table.  We also found a small three drawer dresser on Craigslist that will get stained to match the dark color of the crib.  The plan is to find a nicely priced mirror to go above the dresser, but we might just find a frameless mirror and building a frame out of some walnut I've got saved in the garage.

This weekend I'll be installing the floor and door trim, so I've got a little more sweating to do in this Texas heat before we start putting all the furniture in the room.
