By Dawn Sailors In Around the House, House Tour, Inspiration, Nursery, Offspring (Baby things)I’ve had a lot of questions on my HGTV Rate My Space post, Project Nursery submission, through email and on my original post about some of the sources for V’s nursery, so I thought I’d list them all here for you.

Hi Tarryn! I just used a test pot of Valspar paint from Lowes. They only come in one finish I believe, but I can’t remember off the top of my head what it is. I think it’s satin?? I made sure to do several thin coats using a sponge roller and it has held up really well for the past three years. I actually just painted another dresser the same way: http://designingdawn.com/dresser-dress-up/
Hope that helps!

Hi,
I was wondering how you made your posters? I have a saying that I really like but was wondering how to create a poster.
Thanks

Hi Bailey,
I’m actually a graphic designer by day, so making posters is pretty much what I do for a living. As for how, I use a program called Adobe Illustrator to create them and then work with local printers to produce them. If you need help, I do offer custom design work and would be happy to create a custom poster for you. Shoot me an email if you’re interested. designingdawn@gmail.com

Did you also paint the ceiling and if so what color?
Dawn Sailors
We didn’t paint it actually. I would like to eventually, but right now it is just white.

Hey! I love this nursery! My mom is making my 3 yr old daughter and “coming soon” daughter matching quilts since they will be sharing a room for a while before we sell our house. Anyways, they are very bright vibrant quilts and I knew they needed a very clean background so the room doesn’t get too busy. Your wall colors are that perfect background. I know you said the grey is Porcelan Shale, but I was wondering what color you painted the lower half of the walls?
Dawn Sailors
Thanks Amy! Sorry it took me a bit to respond. No one’s ever asked me that before and I had to go look up my paint sample. :) It’s called Delicate White (D40-1) by Olympic. I had them color match it to Valspar gloss paint though. Hope that helps!

what color did you use on the dresser? LOVE IT
Dawn Sailors
Thanks! It’s Swim by Valspar (5006-8A) from Lowes.

Did you use a primer to prime the dresser? Or just sand and paint? Thanks!
Dawn Sailors
I didn’t prime it, but I had already painted it once, so that might make a difference depending on your project.

I am beyond obsessed with this nursery! It is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen. We are planning on creating our nursery on a budget since we will soon be going from two incomes to one and I think this is the perfect fit!! I am pretty crafty so I think I can do the majority of this myself. Thank you soooo much for posting where you got everything! What a huge help!
Dawn Sailors
Congratulations on your pregnancy and I’m so glad I could help with some inspiration! I hope you have fun with the nursery. Good luck!
Meghan
Do you have the name of the wall color? Beautiful nursery!!
Dawn
Thanks Meghan! The wall color is Porcelain Shale by Valspar (5006-2B) from Lowes.
