"You Are My Sunshine" Nursery

We put the finishing touch on Baby Sayler's nursery today when we hung up the video camera for the baby monitor. Before we hung it, I snapped some pics of the room to share. I have LOVED decorating this room and using yellow, which is a color I normally don't like in decorating. The room is bright and light and neutral, just ready and waiting for baby!

The paint color we chose is called Gray Husky (Benjamin Moore) and the accent stripes were done with a pure white sample from BM and a pale yellow color of Ace brand paint. We will be putting the baby's name in the stripe with white letters once we know if we have a little miss or mister.

I couldn't find any bedding that I really liked so my mom, the amazing sewer, helped me pick out fabrics and made the changing pad, pillow for the glider and crib skirt. My dad constructed the window cornices for us, which hide pull down blackout blinds. The fabric totally makes the room and I couldn't be happier.

I'm excited to add photos or maybe baby's footprints to the frames and display some personalized items once we have his/her name. Just a few more weeks!
