a starry new nursery

our new nursery is pretty much done! it needs a few more things... like curtains and decor stuff and a tiny, sweet baby. when i was decorating a nursery for beckett, i asked for crazy expensive bedding and i swore to matt that i LOVED it so much i would reuse it for baby 2 if we had another boy. i was a terrible, dirty little liar. i instantly wanted to plan a whole new nursery with this baby. i went with a kind of nighttime theme. i don't love overly themed stuff... so it's just accents mostly. the color palette is grey, navy, and white. and i love how it turned out. and i like to sit in the room and imagine a little baby boy that is coming and it makes me happy. 

i wasn't sure what i wanted to do with the star wall decals, and i thought i might do a small border around the closet. then i got a million packs of them because the target registry is the worst and it made me go insane and make a whole star wall. i like it. when i was in high school... i had a weird star obsession. i even have a star tattoo! 

is this blue cart the cutest thing you ever saw? except for maybe that lamp, nothing is cuter.

if you know me at all... you know of my deep, deep love of the ikea expedit collection. well, ikea is getting rid of it! and they are replacing it with a smaller, cheaper, less option-ie collection. why ikea? why?! anyways, the white bookshelves i wanted were already discontinued... so i had to get billy bookcases. i am getting over it, but it's been hard.

i designed these song quote guys for above the crib and john printed them out for me and they just turned out so good. hurray!

the changing area. it's pretty cute for being an area to do something really not cute. oh baby poo... i am not too excited about you. i AM excited about a new guy to live in this nursery!!! come on baby, we are ready to meet you!
