Introducing: The Nursery

Saturday, February 25, 2012

Here’s a peak into Miss Saylor’s nursery. I love everything about her room, but mostly because all of the little pieces have so much meaning to me because most were gifts or hand-me-downs!

Nursery 008

Bedding: Land of Nod (I used my Grandma Phyllis’ money for this!). I LOVE this bedding way too much for my own good.

Crib: From K-Mart – $90! I got this when Joey was born from my mom and dad. This is proof that you don’t need to spend $700 on a crib from Pottery Barn! I actually took a picture of a crib I liked at Pottery Barn and then went around to all the stores until I found almost an identical one! 7 years later -  it’s still going strong!

Dresser: Garage Sale Find by my sister – new paint and knobs

Lampshade: Pottery Barn from my sister (Lamp was the same lamp I used for Joey and Maddox- just got a new shade for Saylor)

Mobile: Pottery Barn gift from my boss (seriously, he went to Pottery Barn Kids on his own and just picked one out. Brave little soul.)

Dream letters: Hand-me-downs from Joe’s cousin, Kim

Dresser/Changing Table: Made by my grandpa Cecil! I couldn’t love it any more if I tried. People ALWAYS ask me if it’s from Pottery Barn or Suite Dreams! Nope- handcrafted by my grandpa! I still have the sketch that he drew of it when we planned it out together. It’s perfect. The pink pig piggy bank on the shelf is from my Grandma Phyllis – a personal favorite of mine, too.

Coatrack: Baptism Gift from my in-laws

Wicker Hamper: Baby Gift from my in-laws

Hairbow thingy: Baby Gift from my sister-in-laws (so useful!)

S is for Saylor Sign: Etsy – Gift from my sister-in-laws

Cute hanging chalkboard sign: Baby Gift from my sister-in-law

Shine Baby Shine: This is our electrical box that is so inconveniently placed on our wall.  So, I painted over it with chalkboard paint and just wrote that! I think it turned out great! And, when people see it, they are always shocked to hear it’s an electrical box!

Chair: Suite Dreams – from my mom and dad.  I picked out a neutral color so that I could move that chair anywhere after I was done with it in her room!

Hanging lanterns, balls, lampshade: Ali and I made the tissue balls, I bought the lanterns for cheap at World Market, and my sister gave me an old lampshade she wasn’t using!

A few of my favorite things from her room….

Cross: This is easily Saylor’s favorite thing about her room. She stares at it all the time. Baptism gift from Saylor’s Godmother, Aunt Ali.

I love this little bird – gift from my mom.  The books are “100 Promises to my Baby” from Auntie Daria and “I Love You Through and Through” – gift from my mom and dad.

Old Jar for hairbows: From my Grandma Phyllis’ collection.

Painted ‘S”: Gift from my sister-in-laws

Pink little tin:  Target $1 aisle – I put her wipes in it.

Hope you enjoyed a little tour of Saylor’s room! It’s been fun decorating it! Thanks to all of my friends and family who contributed to it!
