As you can see, there is still much to be done design wise. Pictures on the walls, books on the shelves, school stuff in the cubbies, add our school table and chairs… you know, Interior Decorate the joint!! haha.
But, the good news for this very preggo gal {36 weeks, people!} is that the contractors are all out and the organizing is in full swing. In fact, school has already started and we have 18 days in already. I am taking a big fat break from homeschooling once baby gets here {that is when the REAL learning, crash course style, will begin. True dat.}.
Okay, y’all. See you back here tomorrow for a very special Bebe Bebe Bebe Nursery with one of my bestest, most beloved friends sharing her mad skillz.

Wow this is 100% wonderful! Eat your heart out Candace Olsen. Seriously. I love how you solved the offset little basement window, it looks great within the molding. And I love the cabinet paint. Bound carpet stairs runner. All of it.
What got me, in the before pics, is the tiny little wooden play stove. xoxo My Dad built me one when I was little. I can just imagine what you will do with that when your little girl is ready!
Enjoy week #37, Darlene. So special.
too sweet, marie!!! xo

SO SWEET Sharon!! Thank you!!!
Love it Darlene! I also love that it’s not your typical basement project (i.e. family room/play room). Awesome job!
