The nursery is finally done. Yet another reason why HEY AVALON, WE’RE READY OUT HERE! Something really special about her room is the personalization going on in there. I’ve mentioned before how artistically talented my family is (and how it skipped right over me), so I decided I needed to represent! The cross hanging up above the chair was painted by my mom, and truth be told, wasn’t specifically created for the nursery. The fact of the matter is when I was working over at Orange Tree a couple of weeks ago I saw the cross hanging on the wall for sale when I decided it was perfect for the nursery. Then I swear the cross jumped off the wall and into the backseat of my car, drove home with me, then placed itself up on the wall in Avalon’s room. It was totally weird, man! Then that cute little table and chairs was painted by my grandma.
Isn’t this just so cute? She used the exact same paint colors that we used to paint the nursery walls, then added the additional artwork to match the canvas that is above the crib. Grandma did such a good job. Avalon is going to love it.
There’s the canvas above the crib. LOVE IT. SO MUCH.
Here’s a photo of the crib and crib bedding. I had a helluva time trying to find bedding that I liked that was bold and not too cutesy/babyish, so when I found this I knew it was perfect! My MIL and SIL bought it for me at one of my showers, and I just love it.
So there ya go, that’s the nursery. There’s only one thing missing, HINT HINT.

I am watching your blog on a daily basis. I smile imagining what your dad is feeling right now.
Glori says to go to the health food store, get some fresh raseberry leaves, and make a tea. Brew it and drink some every couple of hours, have your doctor stretch your membranes, then do a LOT OF WALKING!!!!!!! It’s not necessarily foolproof, but if Avalon is ready, that will kick things into gear.
We are on a “Avalon” watch, so keep us informed. Blessings, Bonnie

No words. I have no words for how cute this nursery is. The table, the cross, the art work, the colors, the birds. I absolutely love it! You did a wonderful job and if this is any indicator of your mothering abilities, Avalon is going to be a lucky girl.

I’m a stalker and also having my first baby girl in December but had to come out to ask… Where or where did you find that awesome bedding? I don’t like the frilly stuff either.

Unbelieveably cute!!! I am loving all of the pink – and you have balanced it out so well with the beautiful dark furniture. I am in love with that handpained table and chairs – that’s some serious talent. She is such a blessed baby!
