But that gets messy.
We ripped out the carpet, put up drywall, painted every surface and pretty much just changed everything.It was a pretty intense week but it was also a lot of fun to share the progress with you all on.
.. And now here we are today!All of the finishing touches are in place, everything is just how she likes it and we’re finally ready to show you everything!.It’s kind of awesome, right?
I’m really proud of it.It was a super long process, but I’m so thrilled with it everyday, still.. Obviously there are three things that Kennedy loves that had to be a part of the room: Soccer, turquoise and zebra..
I had her agree to let me use some grey in the room because everything being just turquoise would probably be a little too much.
I love how it turned out and in fact, I think the grey makes the turquoise even turquoisier!.If the spindles are wider than the rails, the rails will need to be widened using strips of wood or if the rails are round or curved then straight strips of wood would need to be attached.).
For this tutorial I will refer to these as “crib sides” however, you may find other reclaimed materials that meet the above criteria regardless of their use in a previous life.. For our project we used the following hardware:.4 appropriately sized “L” brackets (we used 1.5″ x 1.5″).
Size needs to be at least 1.5 times the width of the top rail and no more than double.. 2 appropriately sized “U” bolts (we used 2″x 5″).Sizing here is tricky and may require a trial and error approach so buy and few and save your receipt..
