This is the first, of likely many, #hometour posts. We recently purchased our first home last spring, and while it was certainly "move-in-ready" and didn't require any big projects, the last 4 months have been spent turning it into the cozy place we call home.
In light of our recent announcement (#BabyVaux), this first #hometour post is of the current guest bedroom / A's office, and soon-to-be nursery. As you can see from the before pictures, the previous owners also housed their kids in this room (and had some impressive wall art!). But, the car theme wasn't our style, so we painted it a nice neutral color. As a University of Washington Alum (GoDawgs!), A decided she wanted the theme to be UW. The desk setup is from Ikea - it's a sweet mix-and-match deal where you can pick the top, legs, etc! The bedframe is our old bed frame (yes, we got a new bed - you'll see that soon!) and the nightstand is an original creation by Dr Handyman.
The frames above the bed have been filled with pictures of the University of Washington campus and stadium to finish off the room. Photos are unavailable due to a house guest staying with us for the month of October.
What's your favorite part of our temporary guest room? Can you picture this room as a nursery? We're open to suggestions, but we're keeping it gender neutral! Leave a comment, we'd love to hear from you.

Super cute and welcoming! Love how neutral it is and is basically a blank canvas. :)
Oh ideas...I would say make it simple. For both of our girls we kept the walls a basic color and use her crib quilt as our theme. It was loads of fun that way and wasn't overwhelming with the colors.
I think we need to come stay with you guys and catch up! Miss you both! Love from Boise

Great transformation! Excited to watch your family grow.
