Hi everyone! I decided to do a "bump" picture update today :o) My shape has really changed just within the last week or so - no hiding I'm prego these days! I'm 26 weeks today - I can't believe how the time has flown! The realization just came upon me that we only have a maximum of about 3 1/2 months left - which isn't much time at all! Yikes!
I've been gathering ideas for our nursery over the last 5 months and am super excited to get started on it's creation this week. I plan on doing just a whisper of blue on the walls, with an antique mantle on the wall above the crib, from which some antique unmatched frames will highlight a decor element (which I haven't yet decided on). All of my linens and fabric elements will be Ecru, Cream, & Brown - with color finally finding its way into the scheme in a hand made mobile made from perched quilted birds - like the ones pictured below.
Another easy-peasy project I think will be perfect for the nesting mood I'm in is a hand-made playmat I found over in Molly's Sketchbook on
The Purl Bee. I found some super cute "gender neutral" fabric at their shop
Purl Soho and ordered it straight away - I can't wait for it to come! I think I may order some Oil Cloth fabric from them to make an easy-to-clean mat as well! Did I mention I was nesting a bit? LOL - Anyways, here's a shot of the inspiration playmat, along with the some swatches of the fabrics I ordered to make my own.
Happy Creating!

Love the design scheme and the bump! Wish we were closer to see it in person! :)
ReplyDeleteHopefully you'll see it at the end of March??? Are you still planning on making the trek? I'd love to see you - and the bump will really be the main exhibit by then! LOL <3
ReplyDeleteYes, I'll be there for sure! Just got off the phone with Tracy about that actually... Might just be yours truly, but since we're going to Tommy & Korinne's this weekend, I'll work on her a little! ;)
