Remy's nursery:
I think I started Remy's nursery back in May. The first thing I did was search for ideas online. After we found out we were having a boy I decided on the "theme" and started my projects. Picking a theme was the hardest part. Did I want to go with an actual theme like elephants, birds, cars, etc.? I decided that just wasn't for me. So, I decided bright would be our theme. I wanted all of the accents in his room to be colorful and fun. Since there was going to be a lot of color here and there I decided to paint the room a neutral color. And since my favorite neutral color is gray, that's what I chose. I found a lady's blog where I stole a lot of ideas from. This was my inspiration for Remy's nursery: inspiration.
After painting his room I started all of my random projects. I copied my inspiration's fabric hoop idea and the only thing I really changed was that I painted my hoops white.
I also found an adorable wooden horse at a garage sale for $10 and one of my favorite things in my inspiration's nursery was the red painted horse. So I copied that idea as well:
My next project was the curtains. I searched and searched online for the perfect fabric that wouldn't cost me a fortune. I didn't want anything to busy but it had to have color. So I went with something simple in a bright light blue. Sewing them took forever because they are lined but it was well worth it. I love how they turned out.
My grandma really wanted to make Remy's mobile. She is very crafty and I knew she would do an excellent job so I let her have her way with them. I gave her my leftover fabric from the fabric hoops and told her I wanted hot air balloons. This is what she came up with and I love it:
My last project was his name. This had to be one of the last projects since we had to pick his name first! But I knew all along that I was going to buy wooden letters and paint them each a separate bright color.
Technically his room is not 100% complete. There are still a few small projects I want to do and there are a few items missing from his room that we just don't have yet. But the jist of it is done and I am happy to share it with you all. :)
