Parlor to Nursery

When we were house hunting, it had to have at least 5 bedrooms and a space for M to have "man space". 

I needed bedrooms for all of my kids.

Here we got a 5 bedroom house with a parlor right off the master bedroom. 

In our old house, we got blessed to have a master bedroom with a sitting room right off of it which we used as nursery. With our youngest still being under 1, I wanted her close by.

All the other bedrooms were upstairs.

Enter the Parlor.

Right off the living and master bedroom

No Closet

Non-Working Coal Burning Fireplace

This room was actually our storage | box holding | furniture holding

room for like the first month LOL - we had just moved in and so the baby stayed in our room. 

Until she wouldn't go to sleep anymore. 

As you can see - this room had a coal burning fireplace.

It didn't work and was already falling apart. 

M and C loved being manly and demoing it. 

Then they shiplapped over it. 

I attempted to paint it white but it didn't work.

This room will be painted Behr Tower Bridge

probably January 2019 lol
