Well mainly, the waiting on the carpet is killing me, I ordered it from Lowe's and since we live way out here, far from the city, it's taking forever to get the materials we need!

On a positive note, we've got paint...

| HUGE difference, made the room more welcoming and brighter |
And we've got LIGHTS!
Well, bought them at least. ;-)
Got both from Lowe's. My swing-arm wall sconces was a steal at $31!!! Not the right finish, but I'm sure a can of spray paint can spruce it up more since I want it in GOLD finish just like my accent Wall Paper.
I also decided to go with a ceiling fan as always like in the other bedrooms, I just think it's more practical to have and most ceiling fans don't look too bad right now.

Speaking of wall paper, before I ended up choosing Oh Joy! Petal Pusher Wall paper in gold,
I was also seriously considering these...

| Rifle Paper Co. Safari Blush |

| Water Color Peony Wallpaper from Anthropologie |
 |
| Great Meadow Mural from Anthropologie |
All of these are equally gorgeous I think, But in the end, my love for his wallpaper ruled my decision.

Always wanted a Juju hat in our home, and now I have the perfect spot (would also make an awesome head dress for Halloween someday too;-))!
I got it from AFRICANART.COM, it's the most inexpensive price I could find (super fast FREE shipping too, got mine in 2 days) so if your on a look out for one, check the site out!
I also found this...

I'm planning to put this above the changing table,
So far we've crossed out some on our list:
2) Change the carpet - we haven't changed it since we moved
4) Change the ceiling fan
5) Add hard-wired wall sconces
6) Put up the wall paper on the crib wall
7) Update the window treatments - if my budget allows
9) DECORATE, DECORATE
Have you checked in on the other participant's progress yet?
I'm sure I will, so many great rooms in the making!
Have a Great Weekend!
