I'll be sharing a full post once we get all the details finalized, but here's a quick preview til then.
The nursery is "story" themed - which is, we've discovered, a bit tricky to explain. It's not quite "storybook" but not "nursery rhyme" or "fairytale" either - it's more like a library meets a story museum. With the idea, we wanted to capture the essence of what a story is as well as bring to life some of our favorites.
We're including a bunch of little details throughout the room to highlight stories that shaped us as kids. One of our favorites is what you'll see in the below photo - large reproductions of the first pages of our favorite books.
Here's another piece I love. We found this quilt at a consignment sale - handmade by a sweet lady here in OKC. It's a little more fairytale focused than the rest of the room, but we loved the style of it and that it highlighted different elements from the fairytales, not just the characters.
We LOVE our rocker - a present from Momma & Daddy. It matches our style so perfectly and is crazy comfy (which is great since I'm sure I'll be spending a good deal of time in this corner.)
I also want to highlight the chair rail in the above photo - The Boy & Daddy put that up themselves! Aren't they handy? I love the way it's turning out.
One last photo - these storybook pages, which are from an old children's book we found at a resale shop, will hang over Tiny's changing table. We were able to pull out the letters that spell her name and it's one of my favorite parts of the room.
So, without further ado, Tiny's name is:
Excited to finally share her name with everyone - it's got a lovely history to it (more on that later). We're so excited to meet Wren in September - it's so much more real now that her room is coming together!
Check back in for more photos as we get more done. Til then!
