Anyway, on to the update. I made a flag garland that was easy-peasy to make and I think it's pretty cute. We have plans to put a small shelf under the garland that will be home to a print or two, a small vase, books, etc.
The changing table/dresser is the one that we refinished. It took lots of wood filler, paint, and new hardware but in the end it was a very inexpensive and practical alternative to buying a new changing table.
Somewhere between painting and putting in the flooring we decided to rip out our old shelves/closet system. This new closet system from the Home Depot is much more functional and visually appealing than the old one. And I won't lie, I've had a blast organizing all of her clothes.
Lastly, I bring you to the recliner, my awesome companion. It's been my No. 1 sleeping buddy as of late. Also, you'll notice the addition of Harold, as mentioned in my last post. Personally, I think he looks a little lonely all by himself. I've been tossing around the idea of a mis-matched collage of prints surrounding him.
There are still a few things in the works, like a butterfly mobile I made that is waiting to be hung above the crib. Other things like additional prints and crib sheets (we're using just white for now), are going to wait until I find exactly what I'm looking for - and love. In order to minimize the stress I decided that this room can be a work-in-progress and it won't be the end of the world if it's not decked out by the time she's born. Plus, I don't want to make impulsive decisions that I may regret later.

Later this week: Awesome wedding shoes and maybe a sneak peak at some baby crafts. (So totally unrelated, I know. :) But still fun.)
