There will still be a few knick-knacks to hang on the walls like those framed images on the commode, perhaps a shelf with hooks, but I couldn't be bothered with them now. I'm just basking in joy that the important things are already taken cared of. It's such a relief! Now I can concentrate on the rest of the house that needs to be worked on (like our bedroom and the hallways) and, preparing for and enjoying this Christmas holiday.
I'm so in love with her room. Can you tell? It's so pretty and pink and girly. It has now become my happy room. I hope she doesn't turn out to be a boy because he would have to deal with a pink room and clothes until we move in to a new house and we get to buy him baby boy things. That would be quite a story to tell. Haha!
I have quite a few projects to tackle as soon as Christmas is over. There will be lots of sewing for baby blankets and fabric essentials for her cradle which was originally Mike's. In the meantime, I'm trying to finish this crochet granny square blanket for her room. I only have to make a few more squares and connect them, and I can move on to making one for the living room. It's going to be a fun and busy winter for me.

| i think it's very sweet that she'd be using her father's cradle! the nursery is very lovely, congratulations to you and mike. i love the idea that her blankets would be handmade by you, it makes them extra special. {{{hugs}}}   Thank you! Yeah, I think it's really great that she's going to use Mike's cradle. Will post a picture of it very soon. It's very old fashioned. :) |

| Omg, it's sooo cute and sweet :) And I agree on the majority of things being handmade for babies ^_^ She will be loved. I'm just finding excuses to use my fabric stash and perhaps buy more. At least I get to choose the style and colors instead of buying something ready-made that's pricey and not exactly what I want. Hehe. She's already so loved.. I can only imagine what it'd be like when she comes out! |
