Slowly but surely...

The nursery is starting to come together! MJ has been painting and I finally started sewing. Here are a few pics to hold you over til we get it finished....

First, I had to tape:

Then MJ put 2 coats of light green and 3 coats of dark green of Sherwin-Williams environmentlly friendly Durations paint, but don't let this picture fool you...MJ hated every minute of it:

Which turned out like this:

Next, I pulled the tape, sanded the edges of the greens and taped the stripe:

Filled it with pink:

And then we have the almost-final product:

I taped the trim and MJ painted that too (bless his heart!) and now we are waiting for his boss to come touch up the pink stripe and the painting will be all done!!! We are hoping to put the crib together sometime this week (or perhaps next weekend....) then move the dresser in and start putting way all of the "stuff". We're almost there!!
