The nursery REVEALED

For those of you who are anxiously waiting the reveal of our nursery...wait no longer. I finished up a few last projects this weekend and it's as good as it's going to get until our little one decides to show up and we finally find out the gender! It's looking a little more boy-ish than girl-ish right now but I have some quick plans to fix that if baby happens to be a female.

View when you walk in the door...there may still be something going above the crib such a decal with baby's name but that is still TBD. We didn't go with a full bedding set since most of it is unusable but went with a neutral brown/ivory stripe and polka dot crib skirt and ivory bedsheet for the time being.

There are lots of special touches in this room...

The quilt on the crib was made with love by Grandma Ries.

View from the other angle...straight ahead is a cross stitch from Brian's late aunt Denice with the poem/passage "Footprints in Sand".


View from the door looking in - fabric poms in the corner and my ABC's inspiration piece over there.

 The changing station...the little blue bow is where baby's head will lie soon enough. The quilt over the back of the blue rocker was made by great-grandma Ries. It's a candle wicked quilt that matches the quilt she gave us for our wedding and is used in our downstairs guest room. Great Grammy Petska also made a beautiful blankey for baby day but that one is packed in our hospital bag.

 I posted about these on my Pinterest post...In these frames are the following lyrics "You are my sunshine my only sunshine you make me happy when skies are gray you'll never know dear how much I love you please don't take my sunshine away." This song is so sweet and near and dear to my heart...it almost brings me to tears when I hear it! Our sweet little one will be our sunshine and most definitely light up our lives.

Now that our nursery is complete we just need the baby! We are down to the last 13 days...

XOXO - j
