#3's nursery...give me your advice!





Today our house was peaceful and quiet. The boys went hiking with my sweetie. I cleaned the house and then headed out to shop. I am buying tidbits for #3's nursery. Sidenote, I am really not good with computers and can not figure out how to create a link, so there are a ton of pictures up top. Sorry!

Anyway, I pictured above what I have bought or picked out so far. My question is, see the potter's bench below? I know it is normally found in the yard for gardening, but what do you think about my husband making a similar one for a changing table? I can just picture it with pails and baskets of toys, diapers, etc. We would paint is white with maybe a yellow backing. Is that weird? So far the theme of the room seems to be garden-ish, flowers, songbirds, butterflies. I thought the potters bench would be unique and fun. I am also planning to create a large butterfly painting in oils and a little painting of a nest with robin eggs as well. The walls will be pale pink. Any other suggestions? This girl stuff is fun!!

I love the idea of the potter's bench and everything else you've got! I wish I could get that creative with my nurseries! Maybe I need a girl to spur me on.

How wonderful to have a day to yourself. We all need that at times. I love the quilt. I think the potter's bench would be really cute in white.

You can type it a link by clicking on the icon that is next to the icon you would click to post a picture.

Now how unique would that be?! I love the idea of the potters bench. It can be used as just that down the road! That picture of the birds is just darling too.
