Bennett's Nursery

I’m finally getting around to sharing a few pics of Bennett’s nursery!

Since we didn’t know if Bennett was a boy or girl, I painted the room back in May and then left lots of the accents until we knew gender. I was going to add lots of coral and mint if it was a girl, but I wasn’t really sure what I was going to do if it was a boy! I ended up just using lots of gold accents and came up with kind of an “adventure” theme. Six weeks after his birth, it’s finally done! Here is the finished product!

Also disclaimer: Bennett’s room gets the absolute WORST natural light possible, so some of these pics are little grainy. Professional photographer I am not. Sorry!

This is the bear Ella and Lucas made for Bennett in July! :) It was his present from them; they even brought it to give him in the hospital!

Since we still use Lucas's glider, I wanted to get another one for Bennett's room! I happened to find this one on a local Facebook group...and the mom selling it even lived in my neighborhood!

I decided to use the good ol IKEA Hemnes dresser, but spray painted the drawer pulls gold. I love this dresser and might get another one for Lucas's room, too!

I made this fabric garland with the help of directions from here and here. It was super easy!

And then we come to...the closet. For someone who's gender was not even known until 6 weeks ago, Bennett sure has acquired a lot of clothes since then!
