Alex's Nursery

So this is the 3rd nursery I've decorated in the last 4 years and yes its the first one I've decorated for a boy but STILL its the 3rd in 4 years so things come into perspective a little. When I decorated Ava Claire's everything had to be new, I spent a small fortune on it with custom curtains, custom bedding, EVERY THING in the room was custom. Seriously it cost a small fortune. Looking back I see how completely ridiculous that was. HA ! So Anyway when I started thinking about a BOY nursery all that came to mind was BOY STUFF, to me, red and navy scream boy. They remind me of radio flyer trikes and red wagons. My sister-in-law Kim, my sister Michelle and my sweet friend Kesia helped to make Alex's nursery what it is. It turned out great I think, and I couldn't be happier with the result.... The nursery furniture was his sisters, they both slept in the crib and lets just face it I didn't want any more cribs, we have 2 for crying out loud. When Alex gets older we will buy him big boy furniture that is all his but for now, the crib both his sisters slept in is working out just fine. The rocker was also his sisters, the cushions were pink when they used it, I just ordered navy ones. The pillow with his name came from lemondrops and ladybugs, you should find them on FB! Her work is second to none. His bedding came from etsy, it was not expensive at all and was just perfect for his little boy room. The dresser is a revamp that Michelle and I did, we found it on mtn brk trading which is a kind of yard sale site, it was brown and ugly and old, we painted it navy and red and it is one of my favorite pieces in his room. The trike and the push along radio flyer toy came from mtn brk trading as well, his MIMI found them and bought them and they are both functional and adorable ! The 3 pictures above his rocker are from a yard sale my good friend Kesia marks found them and got a smoking deal on them for me, she also painted the red table beside his rocker for me which was also in Alivias room. I'm telling you this nursery was SO much fun!! Oh! I almost forgot, the adorable piece over his bed was made to match his bedding by ARTSY FARTSY, they are a talented couple of sisters, also on FB !
