Here are some pictures of Lois's room. (Sorry they're a little dark. This room doesn't get much light.) I've been meaning to post a few more pictures of her room for what seems like forever. I can't believe she's already 3 months old! I love her room and thought I better take a few pictures before she grows out of it. Before I know it she'll be a teenager and want to paint her walls black or something. I wonder what my nursery looked like. I'll have to ask my mom. I wonder if it looked anything like one of these
retro rooms? For Lois' room, though, it's all white with splashes of bright colors. I'm not crazy about pastel colors, which is why I avoided the usual pale baby colors for her room. Above is what you see when you look to the right once you're in the door. We got the
daybed (which I love) and cubby style
shelf from
Ikea. To the right of the bed is a metal side table that I got at
The Pickled Hutch and to the left is a
green, metal spinning rack that my mom gave me, which now holds all of
Lois' old books.
This is what you see when you first look in the room. We got her crib at Ikea,
the Gulliver Crib, and the bedding is
Tadpoles yellow gingham check from Target. And the
heart blanket that I love is draped on the far side of the crib. Both the
chifferobe dresser and the metal cart that I use for a changing table came from
The Pickled Hutch.
You might remember
the clothes above her bed . . . the birdie onesie is from Old Navy, my mom gave me the kitty cat apron and the thrid outfit came from a vintage clothes vendor at the Inman Park festival in Atlanta.
My nephews did the artwork above the daybed, and I bought the three frames for them at
Ikea (one red, one yellow, one blue) .
One of the first
party hats I made is on her dresser. This one I wore on my 31st birthday.
I love this tea towel I got at
Anthropologie--I just use it on the top of her dresser because it's bright and like it so much.
A picture of me and my mom at the Inman Park festival a few years ago in our southern gal hats. (My mom hates this picture!)
The
humpty lamp I got for $10 at the flea market.
A bus painting by
Mose Tolliver.
My favorite thing in her room might be the curtains that
I got at a consignment store called Carla's Clutter, which is now closed.
I use
this metal cart for her changing table and have an old white metal basket and yellow wood tool cart to hold her diapers and supplies. I got them all at
The Pickled Hutch.
Beside the bed is some mommy / baby reading with Mr. Hedgehog looking over things.
On the bed are a bunch of pillows and stuffies. My sister gave me the little lamb above. And my mom gave me the fun round pillow that's next to it.
My aunt made this ruffle pillow with
Amy Butler fabric. She also made me some fantastic curtains with the same fabric--the only reason I don't use them in here is they were made to fit a shorter window.
I got this tulip and birdie pillow at a thrift store.
Inside each cubby in the shelf above the bed are fun knick knacks and books.
I got this fabric pocket wall hanging from
Anthropologie. I'm not sure what it was intended for, but I use it for magazines.
One of many vintage books along with ABC blocks on the cute yellow nightstand table I got at
Carla's Clutter.
And there you have it! The only things not shown here are two things that acually mean a lot to me--the
vintage fabric lion that
Alex gave me and
an illustration that Michelle gave me. (It's hanging above the lamp next to the daybed. I took a few pictures of it, but none of them came out very good.)
