Jimmy's room

Here is what I have done in the nursery so far. Who would paint a nursery brown you might ask??? Well, I would...I love it. The polka-dots are the colors of the girls' rooms. Although, we switched the pink in Reilly's room with orange at Dad's request. I made the curtains, crib bumper, lamp shade cover and pillows. I still have to get a duvet cover for the guest bed...

I made the curtains. Chocolate brown with white polka-dots and a white lining. I am so proud of the lining because I never did that before ;0)


The blankets are from Grandma Joyce...I made the green polka-dot pillow.

We took off the closet doors and put the change table in there. It is a pretty small room and we needed room for the guest bed. When we finish the basement we can will move the bed down there. Although, Grandma Joyce said she can't sleep in the basement so we might have to keep it there forever!!! ;0)


That little rocking chair was Jim's when he was little. Matches perfect. The girls each have a white one from Auntie-Kerry so it was just perfect. The green pillows, I made.


Lampshade cover and crib bumper are made out of this cute monkey material I found.


Here is the material for the pillows close up. I loved it so much.

Inside of crib close up. Blankets from Grandma Joyce...Monkeys are from Granny's collection she gave me and the girls.

First family portrait. That is an ultrasound picture of Jimmy the day we found out he was Jimmy (boy) and not Colleen or Finley or Darcy (girl)...

Jimmy's room looks very nice. I like the brown.
Grandma Joyce said she will try and sleep in basement but doesn't think she can.
