I'm ready for my baby! He even has his very own nursery to come home to - a first for a C* boy! This has been my project these last couple of months.

AFTER:
Thanks to all my helpers!
-MIKE for painting all the furniture black even though he wasn't so sure how it would turn out. "So, you're going for the Gothic theme?" Luckily he likes it. He also helped me put up the shelf and frames on the wall.
-JESSI for all the consulting and ideas. She also made the cushion covers for the rocking chair. They are perfect, Jess!
-MISTY (my VT) who gave me the courage to even attempt to decorate the room and make the bumper pads and crib skirt. She aslo volunteered to cover a mobile I got from Kid to Kid.
-MY MOM who is making the quilt to match the room. Mom, I can't wait to get it! It will be absolutley beautiful, I know! She also walked me through sewing the bumper pads.
What I am most excited about this room is the fact I did it for such little money. Thanks to Goodwills, Garage Sales, and Store Sales! Can you tell that I am excited about this room?:)

It looks like a page out of Pottery Barn. Great job.
It looks fabulous! Everyone has done a great job. I don't think I could attempt all of those projects right now. I still need to work on my sewing skills.
