Everett’s Nursery

I’m admitting right off the bat that this nursery was really John’s labor of love. I did most of the planning and purchasing, but he did the planked wall, painted the crib, the doors, and the walls, built the shelves (aka all the hard stuff), and put it all together while I was in the hospital.

A few details: The Mickey Mouse on the shelf was John’s when he was little, and we bought the monkeys on our honeymoon in Mexico. We got the runner on the dresser while we were in Guatemala (where John served a mission). The pillows are from Minted and were free because I get artist credit there every year. The crib was purchased off KSL and John painted it Sherwin-Williams’ “Repose Gray.” The doors are all “Frosty Grass” by Valspar, the rug is from Rugs USA, and the blanket on the crib was a gift from my aunt.

I don’t know what else to say other than it’s currently my favorite room in the house, and I’m pretty crazy about the guy that did it (when I thanked him for doing it for Everett, he said, “I didn’t do it for Everett, I did it for Everett’s mom”). He’s a keeper for sure.
