Category Archives: My Little Nest

One of them is trying to choose paint colors. Even though it is still a few more months away, I want to get my little sprout’s room done so I can focus on cleaning the rest of my house- as well as start knitting and sewing.

The little sprout, by the way, is a girl.  I won’t be painting her room pink.  There may be a day when she has to share the space with a little brother.  Which leads to the question “How many shades of aqua are there?”  The darker color that is already on the wall is a little to heavy but the lighter one on the left isn’t quite substantial enough.  Absolutely ridiculous.  This is the first hurdle in my mind to finishing this room  and I want to be done with it.  Momma said she would stop by tomorrow to give an opinion before my brain starts oozing out my ears.  

Once the room gets painted I will have to make a trip down to Ikea for a crib and maybe a dresser.  Then I will have to tackle another project-  the rocking chair Momma and I found at the antique store.  It needs to be sanded and painted or re-stained and re-upholstered.  I’ll show you that treasure soon but right now I can only focus on one project at a time.  Hopefully I’ll be better once I get the paint color nailed down.  I can really see the crazy now that this is all typed out!
