In West Africa there a commonly used expression is, "Little by little, a bird builds its nest." I've used the same line of reasoning with my home, and also with Baby Mac's nursery. I've been "planning" the nursery since the day I found out I was pregnant. Ok, ok, you got me....since way before I ever got pregnant! But I really took my time with each purchase, one step at a time. I'm very pleased with the way its turning out, and am happy to report I've gotten most items as on a budget, and with the help of very generous family and friends (thank you for the Nursery gifts!). I wanted the room to be cool yet warm, hip yet traditional, stately yet innocent babyish.... And most importantly, like the rest of my home, I want it to be COMFORTABLE (yet chic). I can confidently say its become my favorite room in my home. I often find myself lurking in to it to take a quick nap on the glider, or just soak in a few rays of sunshine from the morning light.
I don't want to post the final pictures yet, because we are still missing a few items and need to do a few more DIY projects. In the meantime, I'll leave you with a few details:
