Hey friend!
We're still workin' away here at the feature house on Tybee- so today we're showcasing another fabulous "before and after" here on the ol' bloggity-blog.
It's from a friendly reader named Emily whose nursery was a big hit the first time we featured it.
The first time around, however, she didn't include photos of what the room looked before, so we were stoked when she them to us last week. Boy did that room change!
Check it out...
Hey Layla!
I know I've shared my baby room with you before, but as you know, we're adopting and we're still waiting for our precious baby.
We're continually tweaking, adding to, and perfecting the nursery.
The design was inspired by your reading room, but I don't think I showed you the before pictures last time.
Here's how it used to look...
And here's how it looks now...
I made it my mission to create a beautiful, neutral baby room (that wasn't yellow or green), and created something that goes perfectly with our house.
I can't wait to bring a baby home to this room!
Love,
Emily from "Joy in the Journey"

NO WAY is that the same room - amazing makeover!
The whole thing is gorgeous and perfect for a boy or a girl. LOVE the giant diaper pin!
What an absolutely perfect neutral nursery. I pray that it is filled with a very lucky little baby soon.
This nursery truly is a dream. The wide stripes and the cream are just gorgeous. I don't really want a baby at the moment, but this room is making me think otherwise. :)
Congrats on the adoption. My cousin has been with us two year in October, and she is the most longed-for, cherished child. What a beautiful way to form a family.
The nursery is sublime. I am enamored with the striped wall and the vinyl (I think it's vinyl) lettering on the wall made my heart skip a beat.
That is without a doubt, the sweetest nursery I've ever seen. If I had a baby, which I won't since I'm almost 62, I would copy every inch of that, except for painting stripes..
I LOVE the black furniture..
Best wishes on your adoption.
That is so amazing, I love the quote on the wall! I like the looks of a neutral nursery because you can add a bit of color here and there if you wanted and it's not too much. It just has a soft, vintage feel to be creams and whites!

My husband really wants to be surprised in the delivery room, and my type-A self is appalled at that.
This room helped that immensely. It's gorgeous and airy and baby without being "cutesy," which I hate.
The only thing I don't like about this post is that I wish it included product and assembly details.
Lovely room. What a total transformation...and I can't wait to see a picture of a beautiful newborn in it. THAT'S when the room will be complete. It is a soothing restful place and will be perfect for any child- boy or girl.
I know how anxious you must be but once you get that little one in your arms all the hours of waiting will just drop away. Hugs to you, sweetie- Diana
Hi Layla had a little lump in my throat just then looking at the nursery makeover, hope all their dreams do come true, mine did!!! Jennyx
The nursery is gorgeous. I love the colors, the horizontal stripes, the furniture, the whole shebang! Some precious little thing has a wonderful life ahead of them!
What a lovely baby room. It's so different with the neutral theme and I love it!
Congratulations to you too on your new baby. Hope the baby arrives soon.
hugs

Hi little Layla! Oh, this is just precious! We've just had our first grandchild and I'm going to put this in my inspiration file for my daughter.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
That is beautiful!!! Thanks for sharing.
That nursery is beautiful! I love that it's neutral but still very baby appropriate. They did an awesome job!
Holy moly! I'm dying! That room looks completely different. And sooo relaxing. I love it.
Please, you have to tell us where that ginormous safety pin came from. I love it so much I've just passed over from lurker to commenter :)
Thanks!
Rebecca
I actually found the safety idea in the Pottery Barn magazine but searched all over the web for a cheaper one. Here is the link with all the details of the room and where everything came from. Hope this helps.

Thanks for all the sweet comments about the room!
Emily
Wow! This is beautiful. I've been putting some thought into what I might do one day with a baby nursery and this is definitely a great scheme. The best part is you could later add pops of color to suit a boy or girl.
I love the words on the wall and that giant diaper pin-perfect! :)
That room is just divine! The giant clothespin is adorable and the sentiment on the wall- sooo sweet!
It's so pretty, so relaxing and serene! Perfect!
XO
Kristin
The "you are a dream come true" decal got me all choked up. Very, very sweet!! Looks beautiful!
xo, Meredith
that is beautiful and so serene, may God bless you with a new baby soon!
Good gosh. Lucky you two are sooo cute cuz your high level reasoning skills are, well,... JK!
I thought maybe the mega EMFs from your "magnetic" personalities were the trigger!
She did a fabulous job on her nursery! If she needs a custom initial or monogram rug in neutral colors tell her to contact www.creativecarpetdesign.com
