Baby Nursery Photos
I finally get to post my baby nursery photos! I have been waiting because I had some artwork that I was working on but hadn't quite finished when Cooper decided to come a week early! Not to mention it has taken this long for me to convince Jason to get in there and hang everything where it needed to go. We decided not to do your typical baby nursery because they grow out of them so quickly. I decided on the Americana/Cowboy theme! I have to explain that I HATE the word theme....So really it isn't very theme-like! The cowboy is only brought out in accessories and was inspired by an old rocking horse that my husband had growing up. It currently isn't in the room but will be someday when he grows into it. Jason hung all the crown molding and taped off 145 pieces of blue painters tape to make the striped red border with paint at the top. We accomplished the striped effect by using polyurethane over the flat paint every two inches. I hand painted all the artwork over the changing table. I also made all of the baby bedding, window treatments and the pony throw on the glider. I selected all of the fabrics so that it would be very easy for him to grow into this room for many years to come!
