Baby Room update!

It took me 27 weeks to finally find out I was having a boy! I have been so excited to do up the baby room for our little bub soon to be in our world!! Especially since Jayden never had a nice baby room as we were in a rental and his room doubled up as the junk/ironing room too... so I was determined this time to make it beautiful ;)

Since this baby was a "surprise" I got rid of ALL of my baby stuff over the last 2 years!! So we have had to start from scratch again...cot, changetable, pram, carseat...the works...which I don't mind so much! Its nice having some things new! I really wanted to stick to Jarrah look furniture and so far I have a lovely cot which I scored off Gumtree and a gorgz change table I picked up for just $100!

I started with a gorgeous Decal that I saw online.... I think it really makes the room....




I always wanted to go with birds and the squirrels are just too cute too!
The red keeps the room bright and fun!

My next project was to make a mobile to match...I am so happy how it turned out! Its amazing how far a little creativity can go! The sticks I found acrross the road under a tree and  everything else cost less than $20!


I have'nt got my draws yet but I wanted something to hang somewhere in the room above the draws....will post a pic bit later of where the draws are going...but this bunting I made was perfect to fill up some more colour in the room and create a fun space!


My wipe box I had covered by Kristy from Wipeout in the same matching material... you can find her here: http://www.facebook.com/uniqueasu?ref=profile#!/wipeoutbabywipes



I still want to get some simple curtains and I'd like to cover a plain lampshade in the same materials as the bunting, maybe get a cute round mat for the floor.... I'm not sure of the bedding for the cot yet but have got a few ideas in store ;)

Still a few ideas yet but will keep you posted on how it goes....

So fun having a baby!!
