Pre-Packing Nursery

Hey all!
I promised nursery pictures... and you finally get them. Funny story though... it no longer looks as it will in the photographs.
WE ARE MOVING! To Tooele. In less than a month. So the once adorable (mostly) complete nursery is now fairly bare and has a small pile of boxes instead of cute artwork and books. On the plus side that means I get to put together a nursery again! And who knows... it might be the same or 100% different. But here you go:
                  Jude's dresser was an epic DI find but it's in need of a paint job or a new stain colour. We will decide what colour when we do his new nursery. His name was painted by our good friends and were an AWESOME shower gift. We love them. The tiny shelves were found at SUU. They were giving them away. It's been super useful as diaper storage as well as an awesome holder for all the other baby stuff we need on hand. John, Paul, George and Ringo were are inspiration piece. Jude stares at them all the time when we change his diaper and get him dressed.


The burlap banners on the wall were used at our wedding and say "Just Married" on the other side. I made the grey and white ones to add contrast and now they are used as perfect bow tie storage for our little guy. 
The book shelves were from IKEA... only $4 a piece and the frame was a shower gift. We were so lucky to get so many books from our showers. If you peek you can see Parker's face on our lumberjack storybook about the Great "Jedidiah Parks". The final photo is the bulk of the room. I feel like I live in that rocking chair sometimes. 
I'm so excited to someday be in our own place where we can paint the walls and really make the space our own. I feel like we did a good job with what we had though.
Anyways, much love from my mostly packed up apartment in Cedar!
