All or our flannel burp cloths have been reborn as cloths for cleaning up toddler messes. We keep a stack of them handy, on a shelf where they can be easily reached from the kitchen or dining table...
You could try putting the crib in the living room for a few nights (or just putting her to sleep in the pack-n-play) and letting her cry it out. 9 months is definitely old enough for that. But even...

Can't you pull the shades down for privacy? If you really want to get some fabric up there you could put some hooks/brackets at the corners and center of the molding around the outside of the bay, ...
We've had mismatched, painted vintage dressers (mine's messed-up metallic gold, husband's is charcoal grey) for years and love them. Good height, good surface area and good (hidden) storage.
I don't have a chair suggestion but I love your new floors and I also vote for keeping your current dining room rug, especially if you are going for "ultra modern" chairs. Your Ikea chairs don't re...
