Nursery Bedrooom Makeover

This post is well over do considering our little one is now a whopping 22 months! Everyone said it would go by so quickly but OH MY GOD! I ask him everyday to quit growing, but I don't think he's in agreement with me. Now after 22 months, I've gotten the itch to redo his room soon... into a "Big Boy" room.

My goal: hold off on a "big boy" room and bed until he's actually climbing out of the crib. So far we're good - knock on wood! Fingers are crossed that it doesn't dawn on him to just hike his leg up a little higher and go for it.

As far as this room, we did quite a few projects...

1. Replaced ceiling fan

2. Had the tree mural done on the wall

3. Made the animal canvas prints

4. Fabric bird appliques for the tree

5. Paper mache letter

6. Chalkboard labeled baskets

Nursery Sneak Peek

When we moved into the house, we went ahead and designated one of the spare rooms to the future nursery. We kept all the loose baby items and random things in there so it was never quite presentable... which of course drove me nuts! : )

Finally!!! We're able to make up the room as an actual nursery now, one of my absolute favorite parts about getting pregnant! A decorating dream come true.. a reason to design.

As soon as we found out it was a boy, I went head first into the room getting it ready... still not quite done, but it's almost there. Atleast it's ready for him to come home.

So here is a quick sneak peek at the room so far...

Ribbons, bows, oh my!

Just another thing to add to my plate right? : ) Of course!! I definitely enjoy a little sewing. I also recently acquired an embroidery machine so I've gone nuts with it! Here are a few things I've made so far.

Also, everything I've made is for sell. I already do special orders for family, friends, etc. Feel free to contact me at Ashamrick@aol.com.

{Burp Cloths}

Just a little extra of what I do in my down time. Not that I have that much to spare, but gotta keep myself from going crazy : )
