My Dream Nursery

I have to say that these pictures really don't do it justice. I absolutely love the way it turned out. The walls are the brightest yellow with the hot pink accent. The dragonflies over the crib actually hang from the ceiling and fly over the crib (they actually do look like they're hovering when the air comes on). You look at this room, and you think we just bought everything in a set, but not at all. We got the bedding set, but the rugs were found randomly at Lowe's, the wall decorations were found totally by accident at Hobby Lobby, the light from Ikea, the nightlight from Pottery Barn, the curtain from Target. What you see is the result of months of just flat out getting lucky and finding all of the perfect pieces to create this room that I've longed for.

So here are way more pictures than you're interested in seeing ; ) Dr. appt this afternoon, so I'll update with the final countdown tomorrow! Oh, and I'm full term now ; ) Who ever thought we'd be saying that!

Changing table, can you believe the diaper bag is actually packed? ; )

Here's the lightplate that I painted at the pottery place.
