nursery update: glider and chandelier!

I wanted to do a quick driveby post to share two very exciting nursery updates: the glider has arrived and the mini chandelier has been installed!



First, the chandelier:



As I've shared in previous posts, I have always dreamt of having a mini chandelier in a baby girl's nursery, and now my dream has come true. We could never afford similar baby boutique chandeliers at $200-$400 (from what I've seen) but we could afford this $50 version from WalMart. It's surprisingly adorable for the price and it's the perfect size for the room. I wish it gave off a little bit more light, but we've got plans for 3 other lamps in the room, and it stays pretty bright in there from natural daylight as well, so it's okay.

But for my absolute favorite thing we now own, my beautiful, beautiful new glider:



I wish I could express how excited I am about my chair. It really is "my" chair, and it's the only thing in the nursery we've dished out some decent bucks for. I chose a fabric that I absolutely loved instead of something that probably would have been more practical, but they sold me on the warranty and Scotch Guard prevention; it only needs to be washed with water. I am just completely and totally in love. Big thanks to my sweet husband and his handy cousin Brandon for installing the light and moving the chair. :)



Next up is dealing with some more lamps, hanging a few things on the walls and recovering a small ottoman I plan to use that my sister gave me.
