Baby G's nursery

A few family members who aren't near asked me about Gabe's nursery.  I loved decorating his big brother Sam's because at the time, I felt that I had a unique idea (now there are bazillions of vinyl trees all over pinterest and etsy).  Maybe I wasn't so creative afterall :(  Anyway, I wanted to do a new nursery for Gabe and had a cute blue and green theme with stripes and alligators, but I had to think of $ and the fact that baby number two doesn't always get an overabundance of gifts and I didn't feel right asking for nursery stuff since that wasn't a necessity.  So let me try again to get back to the room part- remember I said that Sam was just like his mom and so random?

Years ago I found this tree in the Pottery Barn catalogue- if I can find it still, I will post it.  So I hung onto that bc it looked so sweet and peaceful for a boy or girl nursery.  Plus (and I hope not to hurt feelings) but I don't really like themed rooms- where everything has a lion on it or pink bows or something like that....then as a shower gift at the school I used to work at, the kindergarten teachers gave me a mural as a gift.  One of the teachers sisters painted murals on the side.  She happened to be painting it the day Sam was born!  Jarrett made shelves that looked like tree branches and I put up random things that I have found along the way.  Of course it has changed since Sam was using this room but I think I have it just right or close to it!  Maybe it will be perfect when baby # 3 arrives in the next few years. :)

The bedding I got with my points on Amazon.com- I think I spent $30! I wanted something that was outdoorsey-is that a word? :)

The "G" I made- don't get too close cause you can tell-I just covered the G from Joann Fabrics with scrapbook paper!  I found the plate which I adore so so so much, at a store that was going out of business with a giftcard from my dad- man I miss that cute little boutique :(

Target $1 section :) I think he is perfect!

Our little tree!

Found these at Hobby Lobby. Have no idea where to put them so I hung them on the door.

A gift from my dad when big bro Sam was born, it has been well used and it is so darn comfy!

I made the birdhouse (well painted it) not much the wood working kind of gal- again don't look too close!  The picture frame has a birds nest on the corner- a random find at Motherhood Maternity of all places!

Gotta love Etsy!  

The new sign as mentioned below- I can't figure out how to move this pic down so they are in order!  Anyway from etsy and I love it.
And I also love the baby, my little baby G!

It's a small room, but lots of sweet memories and some long nights are spent here!  The only thing left was a total impulse buy yesterday off esty( which I just added a pic of) to go above the crib that says "many of my smiles begin with you" eeek- I am excited bc I was waiting for the perfect thing to put above the bed since I took down Sam's initials and moved them to his cowboy room.  Simple is my new theme- if only I can get the attic and guest room to be like that!
