Shared Nursery

ok so right now DS is in our room w/us- the walls are a light tanish/brown w/ dark brown curtains and light tanish rug and the furnitue is mix n match since most of it was given/handed down to us. Now when DC#2 arrives I would like to put them in the same room regardless of gender- So our room would become theirs- I was thinking of painting the room a light blue color and have the dark brown curtains and borders.

Q: Do you think I can paint the furniture dark brown so that everything will finally match? We really can't afford to get new stuff and don't want to spend a lot either KWIM?

Re: Shared Nursery

i think as long as you sand down the furniture you should be able to spray paint it any color... i spray painted abbys changing table and it looks great!

I think that painting the furniture is a smart option if you want to save money. But, I wouldn't paint the crib since little ones like to chomp on the rails. As far as the color is concerned, I would paint the furniture the color that would look most professionally done and covers the best. Chat Icon
