Project Nursery is Underway!

So while I haven't been blogging for the past few months, I have been busy decorating the girls' nursery. We have two spare bedrooms on the lower level of our apartment and up until now, we've been using one as a guest room and the second as a den. Since we have a pull out sofa in the den (which we've been told by our guests is very comfortable!), we decided that would become our playroom/guest room and we'd make the current guest room the nursery. Here's a picture of the room before:



Our first step toward transforming the guest room into baby central was to have the closet done. We have California Closets in our bedroom but decided to use Elfa for the girls' room and we are so happy with the result! We were able to customize everything and the system is adjustable so if after the girls arrive, we decide we need different storage options, we can easily change it up. Here's a picture of the closet before:


And here it is after:

We cannot rave enough about Elfa. The closet holds so much more now that it did before. Here's the proof (excuse the mess -- we're still organizing all of our wonderful shower gifts!):

We're using the drawers for the little things like socks and hats....


And bibs. Here are two of my favorite that we got at our shower.


So that's the closet transformation. More Project Nursery updates to come!
