P-Nut's Nursery

Hold on to your hats! Here comes the BIG REVEAL!!!

First off, I'm not a great photographer (as you can already tell) so the pics aren't the best. Second, I just got a new camera and I'm still learning how to get the images just right. Third, we are not interior design experts. This nursery was put together with just the right amount of do-it-yourself magic, consignment sale finds, hand-me-down furniture and trinkets and tiny touches a la craft stores. We are super pleased with the outcome and I hope you like it too.

We felt the white walls with the dark wood trim had an ocean, seaside, feel to it. So we went with that theme. We also wanted bright colorful decor since the walls and furniture are white.

We had extra special letters made of P-Nut's name. Those are not being shown right now but I will do a post highlighting the talented and amazing "letter designer" we found on Etsy after baby's arrival and sharing P-Nut's name with you.

So without further adieu... I proudly present, P-Nut's nursery!

The curtains and valances were made by my mother-in-law. The camera didn't really pick up the colors but they are nice and bright and match the bedding nicely.

All of the small shells were found around our house and in my old room at my parents. The big conch shells also came from my old room and I know one for sure was a gift from one of my uncles. The glass fish and star fishes came from craft stores and the picture on the left was painted by my Grandpa. It is an acrylic of docked sail boats. Of course I had to put a picture of P-Nut's big bro in her room. And that cute doll in the bottom right corner...

Raggedy Ann! My mother-in-law made this as well... 27 years ago! My sis-in-law's nursery was Raggedy Ann themed and at the time my MIL made an extra doll for her first future granddaughter. {Awwwww}

  

So there you have it! P-Nut's humble abode. We still have a few minor touches to add, including something to put on the wall above the changing table and the wall over the crib, but we decided to be done for now.

A HUGE "thank you" to our family for helping bring the room together. Having everyone help makes it very special to Hubs and I.

 Now, bring on baby P-Nut!!!!
