Eva's Nursery

It's finished! Eva's nursery is decorated and ready for a baby. Ryan and I spent some time hanging things on the walls this week, I organized gifts from baby shower, the bedding arrived this week, and just this afternoon we got the E-V-A letters in the mail to hang on the wall! I love how the finished room looks. Here are a few pics - it's always tricky to get good pictures of bedrooms because of the square shape...there is never quite enough room to scoot back and get the perfect shot. Hopefully you can imagine how fabulous everything looks together. I also really like how we took such a mixture of old and new to create a bright, bedazzled nursery!
Wall letters! A friend's mother in-law made these and they turned how super cute! I just sent her a few pics of other nursery ideas and let her be creative....ironically the name of her craft business is "Bee Creative!" Thanks, Brenda!
The crib and bedding, laundry hamper, and wall letters. It was hard to get a cuter picture of the bedding because there is so much white. We have a couple of interchangeable pink and green sheets with either dot or paisley prints on them that coordinate with the crib skirt. I really like the laundry hamper because it is the perfect size and has just the right colors and prints to match the room.
The guest bed. Every loving grandma needs a place to sleep when she babysits! The print I picked out so long ago from Hobby Lobby looks awesome with everything else. The blue sparkly pillows were part of our living room decor when we first got married. The white lacy pillow cases and quilt were my mom's. The flowery boppy pillow is brand new!
Some bling-bling pink curtains that make the room extremely pink in the morning. The Scripture verses were Ryan's from his college apartment and help to frame the window wall.
This wall photographed the best. My amazing glider that is topped with a blanket I received at a shower that matched our theme so well. The nightstand was mine growing up and my mom lovingly refinished it in hot pink, plus we added the rhinestone draw pulls. The green shelf used to be an old wooden one at my mom's that we repainted. Right now there are Scripture verses in the picture frame parts, all about children and the Lord. We touched up our Craigslist changing table and added a few polka dot baskets for supplies. The flower painting was a shower gift that my aunt gave me from a local artist and the "Laugh" wall hanging comes from the best store on earth - Super Target!
The dresser we found at a boutique all decorated with fancy things. The lamp matched my pink and zebra print room in college. The little boxes on top coordinate with the wall letters. Ryan painted some old white picture frames turquoise and we printed off a few maternity pics to put in them.

We may still make a few other enhancements. I'd love to find a way to hang some polka dot paper lanterns in the corner near the crib. But for now, I am so happy and content with everything. As the old saying goes, "The cuter the nursery, the better a newborn sleeps"..... Wait, that's true, right?
