I shared a picture of Caroline in her crib a while back & got comments about her nursery. I realized that I never gave an official tour of her nursery! The reason behind this is because I'm the ULTIMATE procrastinator... her room still is not complete. Really, the only big thing I'm lacking are her curtains. I have the fabric but I just have to get it sewn.
I'm not much of a decorator and my SIL helped me a lot... I'm really happy with how it turned out! Anyway, enough rambling! Here is the room I'm most proud of!
Birth announcement my grandmother cross-stitched. This hangs in the hall right outside Caroline's room
This canvas hung on our room in the hospital when Caroline was born. My sister in law did it for us.
This is what you see as you enter Caroline's room
I got the dresser from Walmart and I'm pleased with it for as affordable as it was. I really want/need a chest of drawers for more storage. The mirror above her changing pad was my great grandmothers. It was a goldish color and my husband spray painted it white. The branch with birds is a wall decal I bought off etsy! It was very easy to do!
My SIL also did these adorable appliques for us! LOVE them!
My mother in law bought the bedding and I love it!
My grandmother bought us the heart wreath and my mom bought Caroline the little shelf. I think they're precious! On the shelf are two of the remaining pieces of my Beatrix Potter collection.
(I had almost all of the figurines and books as a child but I broke them by climbing up on my shelves.
I was a good child, I promise.)
My mom painted these and applied the flower details. She did a great job!
Of course I couldn't snap all these pictures without a few of my sweet girl! She turned 8 months old yesterday... so crazy!!!!
1st time in the rocker by herself! She thought it was so fun to rock!
This is her new favorite face. She does it all the time. We call it her old lady face.
Love this pic!
Alright, enough procrastinating, I'm off to write a mini-paper!

The room looks great! I hadn't seen the rocker since it was re-covered--cute! So glad you finally have the complete collection of framed appliques. :) (My bad.)
The pics of her are precious! I love that girl!
Sadly, I've never done anything with HB's room. Well decor wise. I figured that we would move not too long after his birth so never bothered. Plus one wall is book shelves. We don't have anywhere else to put them. Maybe when he's old enough to show that he likes something (trucks, animals, etc) I'll make his room up like that.
I need to get you onto my "secret special" blog. But I have to invite you through e-mail. Drop me a line mailto: laura_flute@yahoo.com
Not that it's secret special, more like I'm a paranoid freak.
Ahhh, I love her room SO much!!! That wall color is amazing! I forget that her first name is Sydney. I really like that name! I'm glad you gave a tour :)
Gorgeous!! Love her room!
It looks soooooooo cute!!! One minor detail........the dresser was a Christmas present from Walt & I......
P.S. Sewing machine is in shop as we speak - we'll discuss curtains in person (if you don't back out)in a couple of days...
