Closet turned NURSERY!

Since we’ve run out of bedrooms for this baby we decided to turn one of our master bedroom closets into a nursery! (this is temporary as we hope to move to a larger home in the next year) I’m not sure of the exact sq ft of this closet (maybe 7 x 5?)  There are no windows so I tried to add some bright colors. The wall color is SILVER CHARM by Behr.

I decided that since this is only a temporary nursery, I wanted to keep it really budget friendly. The only piece of furniture I purchased is the crib from IKEA.   I also bought the chandelier at IKEA ($29.99)  The orange bookcase was a DIY project, and the big black shelf is a garage storage shelf that i brought up from the basement!  I store clothing and accessories in the storage bins (Target) on the bottom shelves. The rocking chair (from Walmart) was in my daughter’s nursery (I don’t get much use from it in her room anymore, since she is getting too big to sit still!)  I decided not to purchace another changing table/diaper station since we have one in our laundry room.

The colorful polkadot blankets were made by me & the crochet blanket was made by my MOM.
