around the nursery

7.21.2010

first of all...i have to say how thrilled i am that i even have a nursery. this is the first. yes...baby #5, and a room of his own.
at one point in time we had 3 of them in the same room.
when they were little, and we were broke, it worked.
we have been abundantly blessed through the years, and we actually have a room carved out just for this little mr.

let me show you a few of the things we have been working on in there::


definitely decorative wall elements from stampin up. i placed them on 12x12 canvases. these little animals are so very sweet.


a simple little mobile made using papers from carina gardners back to basics found over at design house digital. so, can you figure out his name?

a dresser to match the crib. yet another first. furniture to grow with him. this makes me happy!

just finished the crib skirt this week. and i have been advised not to make a crib bumper. alot's changed in the last 7 years.


this would be my very own bassinet from *# years ago. i made the liner and pad cover. so in love with that polka dot and striped pattern. i think the monkey likes it too.

fabric basket. this is so stinkin' cute in real life. i am preparing to make another one, only bigger. i first saw it here on gigi kennedy's blog. she found it here on the pink penguin blog. it really, really is sweet.

so there you have it. a little start to a new life. more to be added as i come across little finds here and there. oh yeah...and the little mr. will be added soon too.

  3. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the nursery pics!! It is just adorable--I'm so happy for you!! Love that you've made all these wonderful things. He's going to be surrounded with such great warmth--it truly is beautiful, Jamie!

    And I'm with Alexandra above on the name thing. That's just mean! I thought I saw a "W" in there. Is it Weston? But then there's no "A". I'm clueless. Fill me in!!
