The Nursery is COMPLETE!!!! YIPPEE!!!!



Well, as promised, I took pictures of the completed nursery! I absolutely LOVE it and hope our babies do too. The dresser was the first accomplishment and I really enjoyed painting that. I chose the nursery rhyme theme because you can really only get away with that while they are little and with a little girl AND two boys -- you can't go wrong with the Cow Jumped Over the Moon! And I looked online to find the perfect window cover treatment. I found the cutest green toile Humpty Dumpty fabric by J. Kaufman and quickly turned that into Roman shades. Then, we filled the closet. I bought TONS of hand me down clothes from the multiples sales, took giveaways from people and spent weeks cleaning clothes! It was right around then that I went onto bedrest. I was slowing down physically, but my mind still racing to the finishline. I have had SO MUCH HELP! I am truly a blessed woman. My friend Peggy has been SO AWESOME! She came over and asked what I really really wanted done before those little rascals arrived and she TORE IT UP! The final touch was the nursery walls -- she painted them green for me which made a HUGE difference. After that, we hit the mission to buy cribs. All 3 cribs were gifts from VERY special fairy grandparents!!! We were very blessed by that and bought brand spankin' new matching Cherry wood cribs that look fabulous with the green walls. After that, I decided to make canvas name hangings for each baby -- that was SOOOO much fun! (Now we need names to add to those :) My mother-in-law made new cushions for the rocker out of leftover Humpty Toile and the nursery is done! I added a furry rug that I fell in love with at Pottery Barn kids...Only thing left, 3 babies to fill the room!
