Now onto the nursery chair. The chair. Oh dear lord, the chair! Who would have ever guessed that picking out fabric could so difficult? Those of you that picked the last bedding set, you were not totally off. I decided to recover an old wing back chair that my parents had in that same polka dot material pictured in the last bedding set. Ok, enough with the explaining already. How about I just let the pictures do the talking for a better mental picture?
The Lucy bedding swatch. Looks yellow in the picture, but it's really a light green.
This is the bedding. It's hard to tell, but the fabric on top of the bumper is white with watermelon polka dots. I love the extra personalized touch, by adding the monogram to the bumper. I plan to do the same type of monogram as shown in the picture, that's if we decide on a name already! Does anyone know of a monogram place that does letters as well as artsy looking embellishments like the one shown below? If so, hook a homegirl up with the name of the shop.
The bedding,once again. Love the chandelier. Has anyone ran into something like this lately? I dont have the slighted clue as to where I would even start to look for something like this.
Changing pad
I forgot to take a picture of the wing back chair before I sent it to the reupholstery place, but here is a picture that I found off the internet. The only difference is that ours was pink.
This is the fabric I'm using to recover the chair. We are also painting the brown legs white.
I found an ottoman for $15 at Goodwill and I'm still trying to decide if I should get it recovered in the same fabric. I mean, who really uses an ottoman anyways? I rarely used the one in Cole's nursery, but I feel like it adds to the look of the room.
I'm currently working on ghetto rigging two lamps that I also bought at Goodwill. That leaves me with the curtains and the rug to figure out next. Any suggestions?
I just realized that this post makes me look like I need to get a life and chill out with the whole decorating ideas already. I know, I know but it's just so much fun for me! Plus I have been looking forward to decorating a little girls room for ages now. That's not to say that I have always been looking forward to having a little girl, but we will not get into that tonight. You know what else I just realized? I'm up past 11:00pm for the second night in a row! What has gotten into me these days? I'm beat ... off to bed, night.

haha, i'll admit, part of my guess was because it looked like a picture you took of your own crib. But, it also reminded me of the colors and whimsical feeling of the way your name was written on the wall of the studio. But we were all close with that color scheme! Can't wait to see the finished product, it's great that you're having so much fun with it!
I love it all! when and if i have a kid, i am getting you to decorate the room :) Beth's parents have a shop in Katy that will do the monogram for you... its called Brammers Athletics . That is if you want to drive out there... they did all my work shirts for me and for cheap.
