I'm horribly indecisive when it comes to home decor. Just ask Troy, who had to listen to me talk about what knobs to put on our kitchen cabinets for over two years. Don't get me wrong... I found the perfect ones, and I absolutely LOVE them, however it took two years of searching. For tiny little knobs that no one notices anyway. Same when I redid the guest bathroom. I think that one took about a year, but again, it's exactly what I wanted. I've been scoping out dishes for my kitchen for about a year, and who knows how long it'll be until I find the right ones. And, probably worst of all, I have a clock hanging in my living room that doesn't even work, however I can't bear to replace it until I find exactly the right one.
So, while I've been thinking about a nursery for about five years, I haven't found anything that I really like. Or, at least not one absolute idea. Maybe the hardest part is trying to find something that's neutral enough for a boy or a girl. Originally I had really wanted to do an alphabet nursery, and incorporate words. Then I moved on to birds, and then to owls. And now I'm back to not having a clue what I want.
I have a couple of ideas that I really like, but none of them really go together and none of them stand out as the one that I really want. Last night Troy went with me to Joann Fabrics to look at scrapbooking paper for one of my ideas. While he was actually somewhat helpful, he made a comment about how it didn't matter what we chose, because I'd end up changing my mind and going with a different theme anyway. And what did I do? Came home, started looking online and found something else I like better. I guess he does know me pretty well.
Anyway, here I am, about four different ideas, and not sure where to go. Everyone keeps saying that the baby won't even care what it looks like, which is true, however I really want it to be perfect. So, I'll keep looking and playing around with ideas, and just hope that my inspiration comes before the baby.
