Jefferson's Room

I am pretty proud of how this all turned out.  I saw a design on Carousel Design's website that I liked, but it would not have looked good with the furniture that I already have since the fabric has white in it and my furniture is a cream. So I found the exact same pattern, in different colors, that matched my nursery exactly and I ran with it!  My mom was a huge part in making my nursery how I envisioned it.  She is such an amazing seamstress and made everything for his room.

My dad spent part of his vacation painting his room for me.  We decided on a taupe/grey color to match the colors in the bumper pads.  The color is amazing with the cream crib and furniture.  Looks awesome!


I fell in love with the medallion fabric and found the perfect colors to match the furniture.  So my mom made the Bumper pads out of the medallion fabric I found and a cuddly blanket I bought for $20 at TJ Maxx for the inside.  Turned out awesome!

The coordinating quilt my mom sewed and had embroidered 

The rocking chair she reupholstered and painted for Stella, that matches the room perfectly 

The awesome coordinating chevron patterned valance and black out blinds for the window

Love Sac that my mom sewed a new cover for to go with Stella's nursery, that now fits perfectly in Jefferson's room

The valance over the closet to cover the messy shelf 


And I am not a complete invilid when it comes to sewing and craftiness.  I did make a new liner for the laundry basket that goes in the room so that it matches better. 

I also made the mobile over his bed.  I wanted to make a pinwheel mobile and I wanted to some how add his initials in there some where.  Fun little fact, his initials are the same as my dad's.  Anyways, so here is the idea I came up with.

This will be Jefferson's view


I think his room turned out amazing!  A humongous THANK YOU to my talented Mother for all of her time and skills to help put his nursery together and make it perfect for him! 

Bags are pretty much packed, car seat is all ready for the cold weather,

Now we just play the waiting game for when ever he decides to make his debut!
