organising the nursery

[black_rose]

Brotherly love had good suggestions you want everything close to you at the change table. ATM it looks like everything is just around the wall. What about moving the bassinet to the middle of the room. It will be the focal point to begin with anyway and the room won't look so empty.

We have our mobile over the changing table, so it gives bub something to look at while i am changing her. She sleeps in our room in a hammock now, but when she goes in to her cot if we move the mobile to the cot, it will also give her something familiar to look at.

If you swapped the change table and bassinet around, the change table would be near the clothes cupboard. Have the change table with the short side along the wall (like you have on the other wall). You could also chnage the cot around with the short side along the wall which would fill the room abit more, and spread the things on the wall.

I like the chest under the window, and love your furniture.

How bout....
the change table where the bassinette is - like Kate said,

The cot sort of where it is, but in the corner - like BL said (I'm a fan of having it 'grounded' too

The basineete where the change table is, but angled

The little chest of drawers next to the cot (but when bub gets a bit older that is a great temptation to pull things off IYKWIM
and the toy chest and clothes hamper near the door on the left?

But FWIW, I changed mine about 3 times before they were born and then several after - every time I got fed up where stuff was until I found my groove.
The above suggestions are what worked for me, but a nesting mumma like yourself will find yours

Have fun!

I'd probably be inclined to move the cot closer to the back wall (near the window) OR maybe instead of the drawers putting the chair where you will feed...i think what is lacking (in an otherwise lovely room!) is a focal point ITMS. a place where you will feel comfy to spend time in IYKWIM.

Also just looking again at the pics, if you move the cot closer to the back wall then you have more room for the bassinette near the BIRs.

OR: you could put the bassinette in the far corner (where the small drawers are) and move the cot *slightly* down to the BIRs...or, and you're DH would probably really groan at this moving suggestion...put the cot on the other side...(where the changetable is). that way the changetable is near the bassinette AND the BIRs...

(btw that bassinette is gorgeous!) [COLOR="rgb(46, 139, 87)"] ha ha! i just realised i like said a MILLION things LOL![/COLOR]
