But this week, I seem to have finally gotten my arse in gear and have made some very small progress. For one, I picked out some bedding
ignore the blanket...I didn't design one because we bought one with Colton and have never used it! |
I actually designed the bedding from this site. For awhile, I had debated trying to learn to sew and DIY my own bedding, but then I fell in love with the fabrics available there (and a little obsessed with designing different options for a bit) and figured why mess with a good thing. It's a little pricier than Josh we wanted to spend, but we really don't need much for this child, so I figure why not splurge on something, right? Plus, I've had a few relatives asking what they could get us, and I really couldn't think of much, so maybe the bedding will strike someone's fancy!
In other nursery news, I also scored some major deals on some lamps for the nursery. I had envisioned 2 lamps for the nursery in the same shape, but one slightly larger for the reading corner and a smaller one for the changing table/dresser. In my head, I was going for some sort of tear drop shape. Well, guess what I found at Target this weekend:
They were on clearance for $7 for the small one and $20 for the big one. Obviously, the red and black will not work in our nursery, but that's nothing a can of spray paint can't fix. Yay!
So, it may not be much, but at least we're starting, right? What do you guys think of the bedding? Good for a little boy's room?
The picture of your lamps didn't post :(
