Nursery - After!

The front half of the nursery:

  • The crib was graciously handed-down to us from our 3 nieces.  
  • The crib sheet is 100% organic cotton from Restoration Hardware's Baby & Child line -- it is as soft as you can get in a sheet without the thickness of flannel, and has elastic all the way around (makes a difference from sheets that only have elastic at the corners).
  • The rug is also from Restoration Hardware Baby & Child (5' x 8')

The back half of the room:

The chair is from Babies R Us -- comfy and very affordable. It's a rocker only, so no gliding or full reclining here ... but good enough for sitting in with a little baby (hey, isn't the point to lull the baby, not the parent?!)  Besides, it has to comfortably fit not just your 5'3" self, but your 6'2" husband as well.

We were able to order it during one of their nursery furniture sales (takes about 6 weeks for delivery; shipment is free if you arrange to pick it up in-store).

Chair details:

Newco Serenity Classic Non Swivel Glider - Chocolate Micro Suede $379.99
  • Round back pillow glider chair
  • Coordinating gliding ottoman (Item# 240645 - Newco Serenity Classic Gliding Ottoman - Chocolate Micro Suede)
  • Handcrafted kiln-dried hardwood frame
  • All lumber and plywood are domestically harvested under sound practices to perpetuate forestry
  • Seat cushion made from high quality foam wrapped with additional dacron
  • Lofty recycled garneted fiber back pillow boxed and channeled to prevent shifting of fiber and create extra comfort and support
  • Seat cushion and back pillow covers are removable and washable
  • Proudly handcrafted in the United States
  • Product Dimensions (in inches): 39.5 (Height) x 33.5 (Depth) x 35.5 (Width)

Another view of the other half of the nursery:
You'd think that beadboard under the window was always there, but no! We got it from Lowe's.
  • Lumbar pillow is from Nordstrom Home Collection (down feather-filled, with a removeable zipper cover)
  • Side table is from Cost Plus (wedding gift from Ritesh!).  We have used it in both of our living rooms, and now it works here, too.  Low key, yet just interesting enough to look at!
  • Lamp is from Williams Sonoma Home (100% lead crystal, so no chance of baby knocking it over.  This thing is ridiculously heavy.  Shade is a natural rattan, like a light straw-color when unlight).
  • Throw blanket is from Pottery Barn Kids (baby shower gift from Ritesh & Ami!) -- great idea b/c it is double sided (navy on the other side). Love nautical themes!
Check out the ottoman:

This was a find of a find, and a steal of a deal!  I found it on clearance at Macy's.com for $199.  It was only available in Edina, Minnesota (suburb of the Minneapolis area).  I called their showroom and learned that they only had one display model left for $299.  They were able to locate a brand new, unopened ottoman from their Chicago warehouse, and matched the online price of $199!  I ordered it, and scheduled to have it delivered to their Edina store on a weekend that we were in town to pick it up.  Suffice it to say, we are very pleased with this purchase.

Ralph Lauren Piermont Small Leather Ottoman

Regular price $899, bought it for $199.

Side wall of nursery:


The changing cart was also graciously handed-down to us from our 3 nieces.  We especially love the height and that it's on wheels!

  • The diaper stacker is from Target, by Bacati
  • The wipes warmer is by LionHeart (baby shower gift from Sidney!)
  • These cute little cubbies make for great storage We got them at our local Lowe's, and I love the splash of primary color they add to the nursery's pastels. 
  • ALL of the wood trim was also from Lowe's, great prices and selection.
