Nursery

It is so weird. I worked so hard to get Jackson’s nursery together before he was born and then hardly showed it to anyone - I guess I kind of just forgot about it? I swear having a baby brain damaged me brainzies…It turned out pretty babyish which is okay because he is a baby but I think I will change it up in the next year or two to be a little more boyish. Painting over old work has no affect on me anymore. I'm thinking off beat mosters or vintage comic books...we'll see. If it was up to Nick we would have Fat Heads of all the Jazz players and spider man....scary.

I love this little space we have for Jacks. I didn't want to get too specific so the room turned out to be fairly eclectic. Nick got me a special glider before we had him and I love to sit in it and read bedtime stories. I found the old nursery chairs from an antique store and painted them. It is also impossible to go to Ikea and not go a little crazy, so I have various things from there also. I really want to build up my childrens book collection more too. I LOVE them. I'm sure I'll keep adding and changing things, but it is so fun to have the little guy here using it all.

I painted this for Nick about a year and a half ago. It just happen to be just the right size and color for the room.

I came up with this tree and sparrow design and painted it by hand - using tape for trees. I'm not much for the staight lines
