The Nursery Plan

The back corner bedroom of our house had remained untouched for the most part. Right after we bought the house we replaced the carpet and added some colonial moulding but it is still a pretty blank slate.

Its pretty much just been our "junk room". This room is going to become the nursery but presents a challenge because it has: 1) double windows and 2) double closets. So basically there is one "free" wall which happens to be where the entry door is. Here is what the layout looks like: 

Furniture layout is definitely going to be a challenge. Now that we are starting to pick things up for the nursery, I have  been thinking a lot about layout. As I mentioned here, we did get a second hand dresser that we plan on refinishing so I try to factor in the size of the dresser when contemplating layouts. I am not crazy about the idea of the crib being placed under the window but I also feel like its odd for it to be on the same wall as the entry door! Here is what I have come up with so far. 

Option 1: Crib under the window on the back wall, dresser under the other window and glider on the entry wall. Maybe with a bookcase or additional storage. I also added a rug in the center but am undecided on shape, color, etc at this point. 

Option 2: Crib under the window to the right when you walk in the door, rocker and some type of bookshelf under the window straight ahead, and dresser on the entry wall. 

We are a long way from adding furniture into the room at this point but I am concerned with how everything is going to come together. The room definitely has it challenges in terms of layout. I did however select a paint color and all the walls have been painted at this point. We are planning on adding some decorative trim  which we are still in the "planning" stages of. We also are so close to being finished with the dresser which looks AWESOME... all it needs is some poly and hardware and will make its appearance.
