Baby's Room - Complete!

Soooo - here's the transformation of this room!

Bedroom 2 when we viewed the house in August 2013:


This was March 2015, but is what the room looked like for most of the time we've lived here - it was our bedroom until we renovated the master bedroom:



July 2015, after we moved into the master bedroom:



Started stripping the wallpaper: 


Wallpaper stripped and ceiling plastered, October 2015:



Walls painted, November 2015:



Carpet up and priming the cupboard shelves, December 2015:
 


New carpet! 4 December.  This was a hugely momentous occasion as by this point it was starting to feel like this room would never be done.


The crib is a co-sleeper crib which was a very generous gift from my wonderful girl friends - it will live in our bedroom once the baby arrives.


Today, 30 December 2015 - room is pretty much finished!





New light fitting:


I made the curtains with blackout lining, it's amazingly hard to take a picture of a dark room but this sort of shows how effective the lining is!


And with lights on:


Inside the wardrobe.  Most of the furniture is Ikea's Stuva range.


We still need to hang the rainbow I made, somewhere...


And I also plan to make a cushion from the remaining curtain fabric.
