Aunt Meg came to visit this weekend to help decorate the nursery.
What we thought would be a day-long project turned into a lot of work! We started with a blank slate and no idea of what we wanted and this is what we got. To all of my creative friends out there... I hope you approve.
After about an hour in Barnes and Noble looking through children's books we finally settled on nursery rhymes to frame. Some matting and about 20 coats of paint later, this is the result.
A close up of one of the rhymes.
Next came alphabet letters and shelving.
Crib and blanket that Megan turned into wall art.
The "bookshelf" and new window treatments.
Ethan's reaction.
The changing table is being delivered this week (for the third time). After that, all we need is a baby!
Hey Guys the nursery looks great! I used to read nursery rhymes to E and he would complete the sentence. Little Boy _____, Come blow your _____. What a great idea for wall decoration. I think you will have a very happy Baby B with that nursery.
ReplyDeleteHey, wait a minute! Didn't I see you ladies on HGTV?
ReplyDeleteI LOVE IT LOVE IT! Love the framed pages, LOVE the ABC's on the wall, and LOVE the floating shelves. You two should start a TV show for sure! :)
