Girls Room

Now that we renting there's not a lot we can do about the walls and window coverings...but the girls really wanted an animal safari room, in turqoise. Initially I thought, impossible! However, thanks to Michael Miller and his Zoology fabric line...we found turquoise (mixed in with black, grey, puke green, and yellow). So now I present to you, the turquoise animal safari themed bedroom:

Recognize the dresser? It's IKEA...I've developed a great appreciation for IKEA since moving to Australia. I found a lady on Etsy that cut me some vinyl stickers of animal prints and then I framed them (in IKEA frames). And I love this puke green bird cage I found at a random housewares store- doesn't mix w/the safari theme but b/c it was the perfect puke green color I had to have it!

Overall bedding shot. Every girl dreams of having a zebra print and puke green colored throw...ha ha. Actually, my girls really do love their new bedding. The girls love their bunkbeds! The worst thing about bunkbeds is changing the sheets on the top bunk.

I made these pillows...I especially love the monogrammed one's...too cute.


So that's pretty much it. I have a vinyl sticker giraffe growth chart that will go on one of the walls but I'm still waiting for it to arrive in the mail...now, if only I could do something about those nasty blue-lacey drapes...

Nursery #2

So she's really not a baby anymore but I went ahead and made another crib bumper and quilt...the quilt is still being machine quilted- so pics on that later. But here's a pic of the bumper (even though she doesn't really need one):

Don't you just love the Alexander Henry print? Those birds are darling...
