Alivya's Nursery Part 1

Pin It So here are some recent/updated pictures of Miss Alivya nursery that is just about completed!
This is the enterance to her room.....

I love LOVE flowers..i dont grow my own yet so I just get the "artificial" ones..:0)


Her little pettiskirt that I'll keep forever and ever and ever:0) One of my dearest friends Alyssa is an amazingly talented artist and painted this personal canvas of her name to match her room decor! To top it off she came over and "enhanced" my swirl loopy design around her room! I definitley tried to do it myself but I am so glad she came along and finished it! It looks SPECTACULAR! I wanted the hand painted look in the room some how and I thought that this would be perfect!

This is the main part of her room! The chandy......it looks sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo purty!!! You can get one at Overstock.com! It came super fast and it was pretty easy to put together and hang!


Another shot of her fabulous Craigslist crib!!!!


So that it for now! I want to do the same window treatments but with different fabric and I have an entire wall that I want to dedicate to all her girlly collections so she can, or right now I CAN :0) put some of her favorite things on display. Growing up my mom collected angels and I've always wanted to have my own collection of something! But I just never could figure out what I wanted to COLLECT! lol. But by accident I ended up noticing that I had my very own collection of  perfume bottles...mostly new ones...lol but I also remember my mom having about 10 really pretty and fancy looking perfume bottles on display in her bathroom...at one point she let me keep them in my room on my little brass vanity...lol! I was always sooo fancinated with them. Who knows where they are now. But I just wanted to give her a chance to start her very own collection of something, because if shes anything like me and her MamaC...lol..she'll be doing the same anyway, so why not give her a head start! lol So you'll see this wall,her FINISHED dressers and window treatments in part 2 :0)
