Nursery Pics

The nursery is coming together bit by bit.  We still need to get a dresser/changing table but I'm thinking we will check out the garage sales as the weather gets warmer and hopefully find a cool 3-drawer dresser to refurbish for this. Otherwise, it's just odds and ends: crib mattress, sheets, bumper...

I also made a lamp shade recently with some material that Landon's Grandma Gouin bought for us from Ikea.  She is also working on an adorable quilt with coordinating material for his room.

I've decided not to get any nursery sets but instead am piecing together what I like as I find it. The main colors have turned out to be greens and blues and I'm adding yellows and oranges and even some purple here and there. Since we aren't going to be painting that room I decided to bring more color and pattern in with the fabrics. It's hard to see in the pictures but so far for the crib we have a green beaded stripe sheet, a blue dust ruffle with a geometric white x pattern, and a halequin green and blue blanket.  I'm hoping to add a white bumper with tufted circles (that I saw from Carters) and a few more fun sheets in green, blue, or yellow.  The changing pad cover we already recieved as a gift is sage green with tufted circles (will coordinate with the bumper). We also have a day bed in the room that has green bedding and I'm planning on placing the quilt on the end of that.  The curtains are white balloon curtains with yellow sheers on either side.
