Thank you buybuy BABY for sponsoring this post!
Eeeps! I am just tickled to start showing you progress on our nursery! This week I turn 32 weeks (what the what) and we’ve been nesting like crazy around here! I still have both my showers coming up in July, but we’ve been getting the bigger things in place as soon as we can. Our nursery isn’t a small room but it isn’t a big room! In fact, it used to be our bedroom! haha! Hence the great room exchange of 2018 – we’ve have to move nearly every room in our house to get ready for baby!! That being said, I’ve been a bit picky about the furniture we do let into this room. I want it to fit well, be practical & functional, and look good!
All that hard work is coming to fruition! We ordered our Changing Table & Crib from buybuy BABY and put them together the other weekend! I went back and forth with styles but just fell in love with the Babyletto Lolly Set in White/Natural. You already saw them in our nursery inspiration as I was planning this space and seeing it start to come together is the best feeling ever! lol. The crib is also set up but we are still waiting on a mattress before we do a fun reveal post. And, don’t worry, we will do a final nursery reveal post at the very end when all the pieces have come together!
I was really into the idea of a changing table that also doubled as a dresser since we don’t have all the space for all the things. The Babyletto Lolly 3-Drawer Changer Dresser fits perfect in this space. I debated about how to decorate the area but fell in love with the simple look of a mirror. I also think we’ll have lots of fun moments playing in the mirror together. I also rolled up one of my carts that used to be in my office to be used as a diaper changing station. I don’t have any of those things yet, so I am not sure how it will all end up fitting together but I figured I needed the space!
Okay mamas – now I have a question for you! I love these big, beautiful drawers but how do I organize in them? Baby clothes are so tiny I don’t want each drawer just to be a big mess of clothes and burp-cloths! haha. Do you have any organizing tips for drawers in the nursery?!
Anyways, so excited to share this update with you! More are coming as the room continues to come together!
I found the best little drawer dividers at IKEA and one was displayed in the store just for this purpose, with wipes and diapers and other baby things fitting perfectly into each section. Look up the “Svira” box set.
How exciting! What a beautiful nursery. I love the round mirror!
I’ve heard many people love the Skubb drawer organizers from IKEA. That is what we plan to use!
This room is beautiful! I highly recommend getting some smaller baskets to put inside the big dresser drawers. We have multiple that I sort Mary Jane’s different clothing items in (socks, shorts, shirts, pjs, etc.), and I also have a few larger sized baskets to organize extra necessities like toiletries, etc. It’s so helpful to have a designated place for all the little things.
This room looks darling! I love the rug and of course the Minnie ears. 🙂
How adorable!! I love the sweet ellegence of the dresser:)
What a cute room!
Thanks so much!
The furniture is gorgeous and I loveeee that you have a Hogwarts poster in there.
What worked for us for organizing drawers and such— we kept blankets, swaddles, sleep sacks in one drawer, clothes in another drawer. As baby gets bigger and clothes need more space, you also need blankets and swaddles less and those can be packed up! Don’t put the burp cloths in a drawer, put them somewhere out and super accessible, and put some in every room of your house haha. Oh—and get a lingerie bag for baby socks! They are so teeny tiny and get lost in the wash so the bag keeps them all together!
I really love this changing table and dresser! I like the multi-function of it 🙂 Plus, it looks great in that nursery!
Her room is so precious! What beautiful job decorating!
