More Nursery Projects..

Since finding out that I'm having bub early I went into overdrive thinking...ahhhh...I haven't got everything done for the baby room...and started a couple more projects I'd planned on doing...

One of the projects involves bub's name so can't show you that one yet!










I really wanted a lamp in the room so went hunting at Crazy Clarkes and picked up 2 plain red lamps (one of which is in my living room) for $20! But I wanted to incorporate the same material throughout the room so I just hemmed to simple strips of fabric and attached to the light with hot glue...easy...and now it matches :)



I've always wanted to know how to put a patchwork quilt together and since I had a little bit of material still left I asked Gregs mum Kaye to come up for the day to show me how its done (she makes huge amazing quilts & is a pro at it).
It only took us a day to put most of it together and then she took it home to finishes the quilting part on her flash bang sewing machine...
Looks great I reckon..




Oh and heres my new drawers...the name craft to go on here too... which fills the empty gap...
and below...heres how its looking so far...just would like a mat for the floor & maybe a dark cane laundry basket..




I'm very proud of the fact everything I have decorated the baby room with (apart from the massive decal)was all handmade by me... and it all matches lovely and cost me far less then it would've shop bought!

The other things I made earlier....
