Nursery

I'm finally going to share some pictures of one of my favorite rooms in the house!
It's come a long way since last time I shared a picture. Remember when it looked like this?
I've added some pictures


a dresser, bookcase and a little of this and that here and there.
My favorite is this print...

Amy made it for me! When I saw the one she made for her son's nursery (here) I had to have one. I contacted her and she was more than happy to make one for Benjamin's room!


A few things were my husbands when he was a baby. Like this adorable rattle...
and the light switch cover.

I really love his room.  It is small but it doesn't feel over crowded or too busy. 
I love the color.  His room is bright and cozy.

I bought the pottery barn crib skirt off of ebay.  I cut off the side of the crib skirt that would be facing the wall and made it into the curtain valance.
I bought the chair from a local thrift store. It looks brand new and in excellent condition!

 I bought the pillow cover from pottery barn and the pillow from Amazon.  When I bought it, it was soley for decor.... but it has proven to be a very useful purchase. I use this pillow every night while nursing Benjamin.

The best part... Benjamin loves his room! He loves playing in his crib

and he loves tummy time with his toys.
I just love his room. 
It went from this...
to this...
It's all the little details that make it feel special.

I still hope to get around to painting his dresser one day and plan on painting his radiator this summer. I'm sure his room will always be changing and growing with him but I love how his nursery turned out.  Benjamin's room and Chloe's room (see her room here) are my two favorite rooms in the house!

  2. What a sweet nursery! I love the wall color and it was so clever to use part of the crib skirt for a valance!

  8. It's funny, even though there are more things in the room now it almost looks bigger. Maybe it looks more complete and purposeful as a room. I love love it! Everything is so perfect.
