Nursery Update

Okay people…I have pictures (from the phone) of the nursery so far. It is not done.  We are waiting for our fabulous chair to get here and of course need to put decoration on the walls and windows.

Until then, here it is…my mama came this weekend and slaved over these stripes.  She measured it out, drew chalk lines, taped over it, then painted.  She is a saint. So talented.  Also huge thanks to my mother in law and husband who primed, painted trim & painted the base color.  That’s called TEAMWORK!

This little bookshelf nook was already built-in…so glad we have it :)  You can kind of see half of Tigger behind that monkey on the very top shelf (not the little one)…I have had that since I was 8 months old. My sister brought it back when she got to go to Disneyworld.  I’ve slept with him every night since I was 8 months until I got married.  Sad. Had to give it up.  He is still on my “what to grab if there is a fire” list.  That is a mental list, of course.

This was Brad’s old dresser that matched our crib perfectly.  The chair will be in that corner.  It is between the dresser and changing table.

Just need a little pillow for that sweet sham (that will be on the chair—not in the bed…safety hazard).  The precious blanket with the bassinet on it is from my sister and her hubby.  They got it when they still lived in Italy.  I am scared to use it…it is so special and beautiful!

So there it is so far.  I am so pleased.  It is perfect.  When the chair comes I will probably never leave this room.

I LOVE your nursery, especially the stripes and the colors you chose. So I assume a giraffe/safari animals theme it is?
