Meet Megan
Hi! I’m Megan, mom to a thoughtful teenager and spunky young girl. We call Houston home and recently moved into our dream home. I traded my lawyer hat to become a full-time blogger in 2010. I love sharing my passion for affordable fashion, home decor, organization, & fitness to help inspire you to take care of you!
How comfortable is the glider!? I'm so scared to order one via online without trying it out. But unfortunately i just don't have the time now to test them all out.
I was nervous about that too! The glider is a little stiff, but I haven't really sat in it for a long length of time, but so far, so good. It seems to be well made and it does swivel too. The real test will be when I'm sitting in it nursing and I'll have to report back on that one! 😉
Hi Megan, Can you please send us an update on the glider? I'm 19 weeks and have started to research them…i LOVE the look and price of this one but would love some honest feedback on it's comofort level! Thank you!!!
I have a glider from Target that we bought in mid 2015 and at first, it was stiff. Now going on 4 years later, it’s way cushy. I have the Delta Children’s Rowen Glider
Looks stunning!

Thank you!
Hi Megan! Can you provide details on how you constructed the window seat cushion? Thanks
I did take pics along the way so I could do a post about that- glad to hear you're interested! Short answer is I did the no-sew method and used plywood, polyfoam and batting, then stapled the fabric.
The nursery is perfection!
Where is the window seat from?Thanks in advance.
Oh, how I wish I was in the market for all these gorgeous, sweet baby things! But alas, my "baby" girl is 12 so we're in the midst of tween decor! : ) I love your crib and dresser . . . and love that it's from Walmart! I'm a sucker for great finds from Walmart/Target/etc. Thanks for sharing your beautiful nursery! Even though that stage of life has passed for me, I so love these little glimpses of you younger mamas experiencing these special times!
I can only imagine the tween years right now, but my almost 6 year old is growing so fast, he'll be there before I know it! I was so happy to be able to source an affordable crib, dresser and glider option – they can be so pricey!
This room is so pretty! I love that mirror.
Such a beautiful room! Our baby is already 5 months old and seems like he was just born. I didn't notice a changing pad? I took a chance on using a faux fur rug from ikea as a stylish option and LOVE. It washes (air dries) well, too. Thanks for all of the links.
A couple people mentioned that about the changing pad- it will do right on top of the dresser, I just don't have one yet! 🙂
Hi Megan! I know this is an old post but I love this nursery! Did you paint the dresser and crib? If so what color?
Hi, nope – it came like that!
Beautiful room!! Would you mind sharing what size print you hung above the crib? The sizing is perfect!
It's huge – the 54×40!
Hi Megan, when I clicked on the Wal Mart link for the glider, it went to Toys R Us….is the glider from there instead of Wal Mart?
Thanks!
I just did a search and looks like they sell the same one at both, but I did change my link to say Toys R Us, since that's where that link falls. Thanks for catching that for me. Looks like the WalMart one is on sale though, so I'm going to link both.
Congratulations on your beautiful nursery, and thank you for sharing your excitement with all of us. I wondered if you could share how you go about finding and choosing the perfect artwork from Minted. The art you've selected is such a wonderful addition to the nursery design. Do you search by color, subject, artist, etc? Thank you!
That is such a good question Julie! I thought choosing art would be one of the toughest things! First, I ruled out a gallery wall in favor of one large piece over the crib. So, I had to figure out what size I needed first and knew I needed a horizontal piece. Then, I search Minted by color and saved everything to a 'favorites' folder you can create on their site. Then, it was easier to narrow down from there. I hope this helps! Choosing art can be so overwhelming!
Such a gorgeous room Mega , love it!!!
I love this! What a gorgeous nursery and color idea 🙂

I love it all! I am very interested in the glider but I'm not quite sure of the color? Babies R Us says it's Linen, while Walmart says Taupe. It looks a little more gray in your room. Which color is more accurate in your opinion?
I would say it's closest to grey or possibly greige, not sure if that helps as much. It goes really well with our grey crib and dresser. I feel like it photographed true to the color it is, but of course, that's looking at my computer screen.
The nursery looks beautiful and I love the neutral tones! I'm curious to know the type of wood used to construct the built-in bookcases?
Hmm, I can't recall what he told me. You can click the link at the bottom of this post (Week 2) to see the built-ins in progress and before they were painted.
What color is the glider from Walmart?
I think it says taupe on the website, but it's more grey in person.
Love this nursery, using this as inspiration for our little girls nursery! I have a question about the built in, did your builder cut out your carpet or just put the built in on top? Thanks!!!
Great question! It's built on top. We discussed ripping up the carpet but opted not to. Here's the post about the built-ins: https://www.honeywerehome.com/2015/10/one-room-challenge-week-2-nursery.html
That's a gorgeous room! It's so pretty and calming – I love everything about it!
Love the nursery! Have you enjoyed your glider/has it gotten more comfortable? It looks like the perfect size for our baby girl's nursery.
It is comfortable to sit in, especially the firmer back support. If there's a negative, it doesn't rock very far back and forth. Sometimes I'd prefer more motion if you know what I mean.
Oh great, thank you for the info!
How are you liking the Crib? I love the style, but have read mixed reviews regarding the quality…Stability is my concern. Would love to hear your opinion after using it!
The crib has worked great so far- the only drawback is we can't put the mesh bumper all the way around because the back is flat. No complaints with the stability of the crib so far and we've been using it for about 2 months.
Your nursery is so inspiring. I love everything you have done to this room! I have a little girl on the way come july so I have some time get things done. I would love to know what color you used on the walls? Is it agreeable gray?
Thank you

Hi there. What size is the room and which size rug did you get? We are having a hard time figuring out what size to get for baby girl #2 nursery. Any tips would be helpful! Thank you.
Hi! We have the 5'6 by 8'6.
Where did you get the roman curtains from? It's beautiful!
Hi!! Your nursery is so perfect!! I'm wondering which of the paint colors is the one for the upper half of the wall (not the ceiling)? Is it more gray or more lavender?
Thank you!!
The paint on the wall and ceiling are the same. It reads slightly blue in this room. Hope this helps!
Hi Megan! Your nursery is gorgeous. I was wondering how your crib has held up now that your daughter has used it for about 2 1/2 years? We’re planning our own nursery and considering the Delta Epic crib (vs Pottery Barn Kendall). Thanks!!
Hi Emily! Our crib has held up great! She’s still in it and it’s good as new, minus a few teeth marks on the railing! 😉
Thank you so much!!
Love this look! Do you know where I can find this rug? The website doesn’t seem to carry this color.

Hi, that’s where we got our rug but I think it sold out.
The right dress is the most important part of choosing the right clothes. Usually, a well-fitting but unattractive dress will look great, but it is not suitable as a style suitable for beautifying your figure.
