Sterling's Nursery

I have had many requests to post pictures of our new home. It is obviously still a work in progress since we have only been here about a month. So, I thought I would go through and post room by room. Sterling's room is mostly complete, and the cleanest :), so I thought I would start there.

Walking in from the door

I hope he likes to read! When you are a teacher you end up with a lot of books. That shelf is stuffed full!

This dresser I did before Sterling was born.

I love having double closets and this toy box/window seat. I'm going to paint the toy box white to match the trim (one of these days).

Sterling's crib. My mom and I made the bedding. It was a chore but I LOVE it. My favorite feature is the dust ruffle. We made it so that each panel can come off as I lower the mattress. We just safety pinned it so that it will be easy to put back on for the next baby. And I am so glad that my mom talked me into making big ties. It turned out to be my favorite part.




He still has blank walls. I am trying to decide what to put on them. I just found my paints so I am going to do a canvas with his name on it, but other than that I'm still not sure what to do. I did start a painting of him before we left Tuscaloosa. Maybe when I finish, that will go up as well.
