nursery news...


The past few days, I have been coming home from work and working like crazy in the nursery.  I just want this space to feel so loving for our little one once she gets here.  Almost every single aspect of this room (besides the furniture) is handmade and I am so happy about that.  I find if I have a few spare moments, Im using them to sew up a little toy, bib, or quilt.
I am in love with our baby so much and Ive never even met them!
Well, here is the progress that I have made this week...





And this is where I became a genius :)  Remember that this room is a tiny space in our tiny condo.  This is also somewhat of a shared space with two huge shelves of my craft/art supplies.  I knew that I would have to get rid of a lot of my things or store them at my parents house to make room for this nursery.  Both of those ideas just weren't going to work for me though because I actually use my supplies almost daily. So, I have been stressing and brainstorming like crazy on how to conceal all of my supplies in this room...
Two wall hooks + a long strand of wire+ two hemmed vintage sheets= the world's most beautiful fabric panel/curtain to cover the ugliness!!!



Plus I love the effect of having a "wallpaper" looking wall, without the wallpaper!!  
I seriously find myself in this room constantly, just staring at it, my heart swelling with love... 
I seriously can.not.wait.
I have a few more elements that I need to add for this room so check back later for my nursery wish list :)
I love you guys!!  Thank you for sharing in the excitement of all of this with me :)
