Oh my goodness. Have you ever worked on something for so long that it feels like it’s become a part of you? For months now, the lion’s share of my DIY endeavors have been done for George’s sweet little nursery, a space that I could not be more proud or fond of!\u00a0This room is every bit of what I hoped it would be when I first started to envision it all those months ago: a vibrant, happy space, and one that is current and stylish yet entirely\u00a0livable.<\/center>

<\/center>
\u00a0Until the day of our son’s arrival, we didn’t know if he was a boy or a girl (the surprise of a lifetime!)<\/i>, so creating a space equally appropriate for either sex was somewhat of a challenge. The very first thing I decided on for the nursery was the color scheme, which evolved from my initial plan of a duo of chartreuse and navy to also include turquoise. These colors were a terrific gender-neutral selection, as they could easily be tailored for either a more masculine or feminine sensibility by incorporating different accessories and accents.<\/center>

<\/center>
When it came to an overall theme for the nursery, I found myself gravitating toward a bee motif, since we didn’t know what the baby would “bee” until the big day. As I continued adding new elements to the room, I also incorporated quite a few bird elements as well, although I can assure you that I in no way set out when planning this nursery to make it centered around the birds and the bees! \ud83d\ude09<\/center>

<\/center>
This space was a true labor of love, and one that will quite possibly always be my favorite DIY project ever. With the exception of a handful of elements, everything in this space was sewn, crafted or redone with my own two hands. In knowing this would be the last nursery I would plan and execute (after sweet George, our family is complete), I poured my heart into this space to make it a little retreat where I can rock my baby boy and soak up every bit of the joy these precious days with him have to offer.\u00a0<\/center>

<\/center>
Let’s take a tour of Master George’s nursery, shall we?<\/i><\/span><\/b><\/center>
<\/a><\/center>
As we walk through the room together, I will include links to each of the specific project tutorials I’ve shared over the course of the last few months below the appropriate photos.\u00a0<\/b><\/center>

I absolutely love that the little outfits my mom and I make for George can be displayed like little pieces of artwork on the clothing rack next to the bookshelf. <\/div>\n

My biggest splurge in the space was this upholstered rocker. I love this chair! Instead of buying the matching ottoman, my mom made me a floor cushion using a fabulous tutorial by Susan at Living with Punks (linked in the resources below).<\/div>\n

I have had so many of you ask about these little brass owls! These belonged to my husband’s grandmother, and I was so happy to be able to include them here.<\/div>\n

George has no blanket cozier than this faux chenille blanket made especially for him by Mammo Reita.<\/div>\n

This gorgeous sketch was done by a dear friend of my parents’. It is entitled “The Gift.” Isn’t it wonderful?<\/div>\n

The antique dresser I refinished for the space doubles as a changing table. George loves to stare up at the mobile hanging above it!\u00a0<\/div>\n

\u00a0The gallery wall next to the dresser is a work in progress. I plan to add the cross-stitch birth announcement sampler my mom is making for him, as well as new photos, in the future.\u00a0<\/div>\n

The joy of having a precious bundle to create this room for has only been increased by having the privilege to share the process with you along the way!\u00a0To be making a livelihood out of doing the very things I love most – nurturing my family and creating beautiful things – is a veritable embarrassment of riches.\u00a0I count myself immensely blessed, and I am truly, profoundly thankful (to the bottom of my heart!) to all of you for being a part of my blogging journey!<\/i><\/span><\/center>
