ORC Week 5 - Unexpected Book Display for Safari Glam Nursery

YOU CAN LINK UP HERE

It's CRUNCH TIME for ORC participants people and I AM IN IT SO BAD!!!!!

The installers started working on the carpet and it is nearly done! I hope to get in the furniture within the week, thank you all for your words of encouragement on this 'snag' on our project.

Anyway before the reveal next week (which I hope I will be able to participate in), I wanted to share with you the solution to our AWKWARD INDOOR WINDOW DILEMMA I shared with you all HERE.

TA-DA!

My Dilemma BEFORE

So much better and so useful too!

I'm pretty psyched as to how it turned out! I was seriously contemplating on these...

1) Wisteria Shelf -$1399

2) From Land of Nod - $249

Both really beautiful but really, very expensive! Also option 1 scared me with pictures of a toddler climbing on those shelves and for option 2, for sure I would need more than just 1 unit.

I got the shelves from...

This wasn't the first time I ordered from this site, I ordered some shelves for Sophia's closet too!

That's a whole other story which I will be sharing in the blog after the nursery is done.

Shipping is pretty fast ($15 fedex ground) and as you can see, price, is super reasonable.

My Hubs added these extra wood on the sides so we could screw  the shelves into place without damaging the original window casing!

I just added extra wallpaper to simple roller blinds I bought from HOME DEPOT. All in all, the project cost me $83 - that
includes paint, wood, blinds and shelving! Not bad at all!

I also had to start working on the decorating even though the furniture is not in the room yet.

Used painters tape to mark the placement of furniture so we know where to hang

Thank you all too for your input on the curtain dilemma I shared last week. I finally chose Curtain #1 and I LOVE IT!

I added these paper flower garland, a clearance find after Easter from TARGET, to two of the windows

You know, I love decals, so I got this (also from TARGET)
to temporarily decorate on a wall

 Finally, I had to share with you what our CRIB WALL currently looks like...

Absolutely divine
