Warm Fuzzies and Nursery Decor

{current state of the nursery - not quite perfect, but good enough}
I want to thank you all for your sweet comments regarding my blog/personal identity crisis post. You all really know how to make this new mom feel great!

{inexpensive wall decor - Etsy seller: Art and Philanthropy }

So, the wall mural that I was going to paint myself on the large wall in the nursery didn't exactly happen simply because I got a little too lazy towards the end of my pregnancy and Grayson also decided to come early.

{I punched holes in the prints, hung them with knitting yarn and tacked some craft dragonflies at each end}

I'm still in search of some large scale art work for this wall or I may tackle the mural project, but until that happens, these little prints will do the trick.

Having spent numerous hours in this chair (many of them napping), I can honestly say it's the most comfortable chair EVER!

What I like most about Grayson's nursery is all the unique touches you added. The prints you picked up on your travels are one-of-a-kind and so precious! It's a great space for him to grow into.

Beautiful and comfortable. You'll be surprised how much his room evolves over the years. My son is turning five this year, and his room is my favorite room in the whole house (so much love goes into it). Cheers!

So cute!! Now that the house is pretty much done I'd love to see a full story on all of it! I only know the kitchen, the nursery and the office. When you have a moment of course ;)

Looking great! And even better now that it has a baby in it! :) I see that your light fixture came in! Wasn't it backordered for MONTHS?
I love the etsy prints you hung - I am doing something similar with ABC prints from etsy!
Miss you on DP. Glad all is well!

Beautiful! I stumbled over to your blog from Brooklyn Limestone. Love it!

We're adding a subway tile backsplash in the kitchen tomorrow. Yours looks great!

You did a wonderful job on Grayson's room, the paint color all of the furniture and those pictures that you had look great on the walls. Grayson looks so happy there. What a wonderful room for him to grow up in, and for you and your husband to enjoy such a beautiful little boy.
