Ughhh my landlord just denied me painting the nursery. I don't blame him cuz its wood paneling and once u paint it u can't go back but it's such a dark wood and makes the room so dark. Plus it's always been a thing for me to be able to paint the babies room 😢 ugh my hormones make me want to cry about this but I totally understand where he is coming from and he is being super nice about it too.
@sarataylor0906 I think I may do just one wall of it to accent and brighten it up but not be too much to put up or take down
yea im doing more research about it right now & i wouldnt recommend it, only because its a long process. It will definitly come off the paneling but when you go to take it off you have to peel the 1st layer of Vinyl and then you need to prep a bowl of Dish detergent & warm water, its just a super long process and it all depends on if the wallpaper wants to co-op with you, i wouldnt recommend it, maybe buy a bunch of baby posters and hang them up, thats another idea, get enough posters to cover the whole room, that would be alot better than that dark wood
@sarataylor0906 I just would want to make sure it would come off easily and not damage the wood paneling underneath
well.... i mean theres a little scrubbing involved but it all definitly comes off. Theres even peel on&off wallpapers that look like wood paneling, idk haha im just givin ideas
you should get some peel on & off wallpaper. That would work perfectly for you
@morganmommy79 I gotta get the boxes cleaned out of it first 😂 but I changed her crib to a light grey instead of the dark wood to help brighten it up
@lillyb, hope to see pics later! My baby is 3 weeks old and I'm still working on her nursery. lol
@morganmommy79 yea I was thinking about hanging quilts to help brighten it up. I'm gonna put shears on the windows as well :)
Hang a large quilt in those colors or frame a small one. Hanging mirrors can brighten a room and make it appear larger. If you're having a girl you could always use sheer panels to draw attention to the crib and add color. :)
@twinsandcounting @morganmommy79 I'll probably do some bright curtains and such but any wall sticks most likely won't work since the wall is so dark it'll blend in. I want to do Sage green and grey but wonder if it will be too dark now :/
Go for a re usable murial. My parents bought a beach scene with a lighthouse to put in their wall and its re usable so it doesn't tear up the wall. Or you could do a lot of frames with pictures that pop.
I know it sucks but! There are so many ways to brighten the room up and add your own special touch. It may even make the project more exciting and challenging coming up with a way to do so.
@mamatocam8516xo I'm going to look into them but on wood paneling some of them don't show up.
Can always use wall decals to brighten it up :) they come right off. That's what I did for my sons room.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
I really really hate the fact that I got stretch marks on my boobs. And it kinda bothers me when mommas tell me they are something to be proud of because it's my baby tattoos or my proof I was growing a miracle...I'm pretty sure once my son is in this world with me HE will be the proof I grew a miracle inside me. I know they try to make me feel better about it but there really is nothing beautiful about stretch marks! No matter how you put it.
Rant
My SO has been rude a lot ever since I've gotten pregnant...he said he doesn't care about my pregnancy, he doesn't even take one day off from work just ONE to come to at least one ultra sound appointment. I mean he's always making sure I'm fed, he lets use the heating pad, and even apologized to saying he doesn't care. He can mess with me all day but when I want to join and play around he gives me an attitude. He just makes me feel like s*** at times. He's a great fiancé don't get me wro...
Racial nickname
I sometimes call my lo monkey. To me he looks like a little monkey. My so says it's racist and offensive. What do you think?
i finally let him do it
I finally let DF throw away my foundations. He says I look better without it. He said he hates seeing me cover my face with make up when I can just wear mascara and eyeliner. He says it makes me look fake and he said he's not saying it to be mean, hes saying it because he cares. Im glad he's real with me. He says I have natural beauty. He says he doesn't like it when I dye my hair or wear make up because he loves my natural beauty. I know some girls feel as though that t...
