Instead of a mobile in the nursery, I thought these would be much more pretty and stylish! And, we all know, my kid has gotta have style!

Vintage Nursery Rhymes Framed Prints

If you remember, I bought some Vintage Nursery Rhyme Books and made this cute tissue box cover for the nursery....

I also chose 6 of the nursery rhymes to frame. I bought simple white frames at Micheal's and used scrapbook paper as the background. Warning: some of the photos are at funny angles....I was trying to avoid glares and reflections! :)

Nursery Peak!

Here is a peak of what is going on in our nursery. I do apologize, I took these photos with my phone, so they are not the best quality!


The dresser is really an old buffet that I found on Craigslist (for an amazing $75!!) and painted. The mirror is also a Craigslist find that I spray painted!




I still have to paint the bookshelf. I'm having some trouble with that one. When I was a kid, this bookshelf was in my grandparents house and I can't remember a time I was there that I wasn't pulling one of my books or one of my grandmother's 30+ yearbooks (she was a teacher) from it. I know it will still be the same bookshelf, but......


I was pleasantly surprised with this little wall. These are wooden plaques that hung in my husband's nursery. At first, I did not want this nursery to have the animal-y, baby look. But these are vintagey enough to fit in perfectly! Needless to say, the hubby was very happy about their inclusion. 

More to come!

Modge Podged Valentine's Collage Decorations

Last year, I bought small canvases and Valentine die cuts and made a cute piece of "Valentine Art." All I did was modge podge the pieces on the canvas after painting it. This year, I added the twine so that I could hang them around the house!
