Hooray!
The nursery is complete!
We decided to forgo a theme and just compile things we love. A lot of what the room is filled with are handmade things from family and friends and Drew Jones' artwork which makes it all the more special. I love all the the different textures and colors in the room and how they work together. Let me give you the tour...
My Mom sewed this amazing quilt for the baby. We just LOVE how colorful and fun it is. It brings so much whimsy and joy into the room.
Drew Jones got this antique type set drawer awhile ago at an antique store. We just put little found objects in it. The antique ceramic boy and girl were a gift from my Mom and we used them as the cake toppers at our wedding.
Drew Jones' Dad made that awesome doorknob rack for us a couple Christmases ago. We could never find the perfect spot for it until now. It's an great place to hang the baby's super hero cape collection that Drew Jones' Mom is making for him. The Superman one is already lovingly made and proudly hung. Drew Jones' Mom also made us the Swiss Dot curtains. They fit perfect and are simple and fresh.
Drew Jones made this cowboy shadowbox artwork. He started making these a couple years ago and they are all so unique and nalstagic. If you want one for your home let me know, he takes orders. He can do cowboys, dinosaurs, army men, etc.
You guessed it, Drew Jones also painted the painting. It totally makes the entire room don't you think?
Drew Jones made the fab Dinosaur artwork.
Our friend Ciara crocheted the soft blue poof as a gift. But if you want one she is takes orders as well! I am excited to put our little baby boy in the middle of it and take lots of photos.
The beautiful dresser is vintage from Drew Jones' childhood.
Ciara also made us the crocheted Yoda (again she is totally available for hire, let me know if you want her info). Drew Jones was tickled. And he is going to be weirded out that I described him as tickled, but it's true. We got the photo of Scout printed on glass with a company called Fracture. My sister got us the blue fluffy rug, the link is below. It was the last thing I put in the room and made it feel complete. :)
The little piggy bank is Drew Jones' from when he was a baby. It has his name and birthdate engraved on it. The antique watercolor set is from my Mom. She picks them up for Drew whenever she finds a really neat one and he has a great little collection now. The framed artwork is a page from an old children's book called "The Clumsy Cowboy" I found it on Etsy but you can find it other places like Amazon.
I thought it might be nice to show you a photo of the closet as well in case any future mama's need organization ideas. All the organizational components are from Target. I have gotten a lot of hand-me-downs so I bought three big bins to separate them into the different sizes and put them on the highest shelf. The grey metal bins hold toys and books. The hanging shelves hold receiving blankets and quilts and they even have those drawers you can purchase to keep things in.

So now all we need is the baby!
