Our Baby Nursery

As I promised, I am finally posting pictures of our baby boy's nursery!  It took a lot of compromising with my husband, he thought everything I was picking out was just too girly.  Once he talked to a friend of his who also just had a baby boy and he said, "just let her do what she wants, he's a baby, it's all free game" it became easier to compromise....or not have to anymore!  haha  Well, he'll be here in about 7 weeks and I think he's just going to adore his new room.

It took us about 2-3 days to paint the room and that included the accent wall, which was pretty easy to paint...just required lots of tape!  I also created 4 pieces of custom artwork and bought a few pieces that I fell in love with.

Austin's Room

I met Austin's mom at the Overland Park Fall Festival last October and she hired me to make a couple of custom art pieces for his bedroom.  His dad was pretty adamant that it not be too girly, so I felt like I was really under pressure, haha!  I did keep checking with my husband, just to make sure I was keeping it very boyish...I mean, Austin is only 3!  :)  Here's what I came up with, I really LOVE both pieces!

Sweet find turned LOVE!

So, it seems like forever ago I posted this blog about my sweet find at my local Goodwill store.  It was this dresser, it was rundown and gross....but I could see the potential!

Well, with a LOT of help from my amazing husband it is finally refinished and placed into it's new home in our house!  After a lot of Pinterest searching, I decided I wanted to go 2 tone with it.  I think it turned out totally AMAZING and I am so happy with it!!

Happy New Year! Happy New Room!

Happy 2012 to Everyone!!  My husband and I spent our first New Years Eve at home this year since we have been together, it was really nice to not have to worry about making any big plans.  We invited my sister and her family to stay over and all the kids had a fun time together, it was great.

Now as promised, here are some pictures of our new bedroom....new curtains are up, new pillows fluffed,  barn door hanging and new ombre painting complete!  I'm in love with the room and just so pleased with how it turned out.  Here's some pictures:
