He may not have a name but at least this baby has a nursery. Dave likes to call it Modern Lumberjack. I have to admit there were moments when I was worried it was becoming a little too hodge-podge but I think in the end it came together just as I was hoping. It is bright and quirky and makes me happy. I made all of the bedding and changing pads this go around along with the curtains and now that I am 37 weeks pregnant I look at them and feel so relieved I sewed them months ago. I feel that way about the whole room actually. So glad that it is done because I don't feel like doing much. Nesting came early and is long gone. I haven't even finished packing my hospital bag and yet I have this feeling that he will be coming before his due date. Hopefully I can get around to that this weekend.

ReplyDeleteAnd thank you!
ReplyDeleteHi Megan,
ReplyDeleteI came across your Ikea Mandal dresser that was restained. I really like that color. What stain did you use? Also, what was your process? Did you sand off the clear finish first? Thank you!
Hi David! Sorry I took so long to respond. We used a heavy duty orbital sander to remove the clear finish. We then used Old Masters Penetrating Stain in Special Walnut. I think my husband did two or three coats of that and then we topped it off with Old Masters Polyurethane. Hope this helps!
