So, I am quite excited about how the nursery came together. Here are some before shots:
And (drum roll please)...here are the after shots!
This truly was a group effort. My father in law, brother in law, and Andrew laid the carpet down. My sister in law, Amanda, did the wall decal (doesn't it look awesome!?). Grandpa Littlefield stained the dresser and rocking chair. My mom and I decopauched the "Miles" letters. My mother and father-in-law gave us the beautiful cherry wood crib. They also got a changing table, but we found out it was damaged in shipping, so we are getting a new one. Andrew and my brother in law, Ryan, put together the crib. My mother in law also helped accessorize the nursery with lamps and curtains which really pulled everything together. Also not pictured, is the cherry wood toy chest that my mom got for Miles. That is being shipped. I will probably post some more pics once the changing table and toy chest have arrived. Until then, I will look forward to peeking in the nursery every once in a while to build the excitment a little more. Thanks everyone! We are feeling quite well-loved!
amelia! i LOVE the nursery!!! it's so beautiful! also, i couldn't help but notice the fao schwartz robot sitting on the armoire. good memories. i wish i could have been there to help you craft away. love you much friend!
ReplyDeleteps: i also noticed the dale earnhardt, jr. picture didn't make the cut in the final nursery pictures. give andrew a tissue for me, i'm sure he's still crying about this loss. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, friend! I must admit, we have already been in there a few times, partly to marvel at how fast it is all happening and partly because we are so excited for him to get here. Also, I offered to keep the Dale Earnhardt pic up for little Miles, but Andrew said "it didn't go with the motiff" so we took it down. It is now lovingly perched in the garage. Love you too!
ReplyDeleteit looks awesome!!! (p.s. i LOVE makeovers :)
