Ross' "Old School" Nursery















Mind you, there are still things to be done . . . but I couldn't be happier! Created by combining roughly 50% flea market finds and 50% new or handmade items, it has certainly become my most favorite room in the house! Grady has caught me, several times now, simply sitting in it and staring for no reason at all! (Let's just hope Ross feels the same way!)



Before I go, I have to thank Grady . . . for not just the painting and hanging . . . but for his patience through this entire decorating obsession I've had the last 7 months. He's been there willing to help every step of the way.
Grady, you are more wonderful than you could ever imagine.

Until next time . . . because, there will be more!

fabulous!! I looks like it belongs in the pages of a magazine. Love all of the little details that you've personalized it with. We also have some of those "vintage" books I spied on Ross's bookshelf and they are some of my favorites that I read to my girls. :)

I love it too! As always you amaze me! Also I could not help but smile when you talked about sitting in the room. I remember before you were born I sat in your room and tried to imagine what you would look like and thought about playing with you there. Of course it turned out to be even more amazing than I could imagine because you were so special and the sweetest little baby. I know Ross will be an awesome little miracle too! I can't wait to meet her! I know she will love her gorgeous room!

Sorry about the duplications, I am in HH which means I am using an I-Touch. It is TINY and easy to touch the buttons incorrectly! But, I do really love it! I must come soon to see it in person!

Amber said...
