Baby on Board

I haven't posted in ages! Between work & getting ready for our little munchkin it's been a bit hectic! I hope to get back into the swing of things soon - in the meantime, I thought I'd post some images of what's been consuming any free time I can grab! The nursery is complete - now all we need is the baby (which could be coming any day now!) Enjoy!

Nursery Works Chapter 2

Custom Inside Mount Roman Shades made by...oh right, ME! Say's the girl who has never once sat in front of a sewing machine before! I have to say - so far so good! I found a great front fabric at Jo Ann's Fabric for $5 a yard (basically a steal!) and a blackout lining and I was good to go....oh along with A LOT of help from a FANTASTIC website Terrell Designs. If you are up for the "roman shade challenge" I highly recommend starting here. Her step by step instructions are fabulous, she has a hardware calculator on the website so you can figure out all the parts, quantities & measurements you need and you can order everything directly from her website (a a really good price!)

All sewed up! Ready to install the batons, make a head rail, sew on the rings, and string em up!

Tune in next time for installation shots (fingers crossed!)

Nursery Works - Chapter 1

Ready.....Set.....Go....its time to get the nursery in order! My idea's are planned, now its time to put them into action! We are doing yellow and white stripes wrapping around the room, white furniture, custom roman shades, & pops of pink & green...





Stay tuned for the progress reports...
