Before Hallie arrived, my only concept of motherhood was decorating her room. Three months before her due date, we found out we’d have to move within a months time. I was completely overwhelmed. Hindsight—we’re so thankful it happened. The move gave us an extra room just for Hal. So instead of packing up our old apartment like a wise person would do, I made an inspiration board for her room. After we settled into our new space, I did what I thought motherhood was—went into her room every morning, opened the blinds, pictured her giggling in her crib, and dreamed up more projects.
Creature Comforts elephant illustration and my Grandma’s rocking chair served as the starting point for the room. Stay tuned for the actual room. I may still be working on one last project.
ADORE. And I do the same thing – walk in every morning, pull back the curtains and just imagine. Can’t wait to see the final reveal!
Can’t wait! I’m sure whatever it is, will be amazing!
Love love love it! Sweet Hallie has an awesome room.
Cute stuff!!! I am re-decorating for my only child – she is getting a “big” girl room now – and I love the way you have mixed patterns and colors. I struggle with how to do that and not make it look messy and cluttered. But it has become a year long project, so we’ll see…. 🙂
