DIY Nursery Stuff

My mom and I have been busy crafting for Julia! My mom made some flowers to use on the mobile that was given to me!

Picture 26 weeks 2 days, nursery

We had another great weekend! We got to go down and see hubby's family and visit then on Sunday my parents came over and we worked on some finishing touches! My mom came up with a great idea to put some fabric on the backboard on the bookshelf, and it looks AWESOME!!!


She also helped be hang some things on the wall and decide where I want the other things hung! She brought the framed piece with her and it's from her baby blanket, it says "little kittens have lost their mittens" I just love it!


My mom also made me a sign with Julia's name on it, she got the colors perfect!


My mom also brought a shelf she wasn't using to go in the nursery to put things on, which I promptly did placing a little ceramic carriage she brought with her that I remembered my grandma having, it's perfect!


Our friends Kathy and Norman had a few things to let me borrow! One of them is this bassinet, there's a swing (but the cloth is already off of it to be washed) and an outside play area!

Last put not least is a picture hubby took of me tonight!

Thanks friends and family!

I just want to take an opportunity to thank a few friends and my mother-in-law! My friends have been wonderful during this pregnancy. My friend Melissa knitted me a baby blanket in pink and green, it's GORGEOUS!

My best friend Ashley gave me a diaper stacker that sits on the changing table! Love it!

and my Mother-in-Law made us a crib skirt, recovered the cushions on the glider and made valances and curtains!


Thank you all SO much!

Nursery Completion and 23 week picture!

Well my awesome husband has worked all weekend (with a sick wife) on getting the nursery done! Here are some pictures we took this afternoon:





Thanks to our neighbor we were able to get the rest of the furniture up! She helped move the changing table up and hubby got the rocker and toy chest moved in!




Here is my 23 week picture!

Nursery Update

My wonderful daddy came to help with the nursery today and he got the chair rail hung and the chandelier put up!

This first one is just of my dad working on his grand-daughter's room!

Then he started on the chandelier which is so pretty!

I took several pictures on my dad working on it, I think I'll get them made in black and white and put them up on the wall!!!
