Baby Nursery & Garage Sale Finds!

Yesterday I had the opportunity to go to garage sales and the thrift store to buy my first-ever baby girl clothes! I found a ton of stuff really cheap so I'm pretty excited.

Now, I'm starting to work on the nursery. The bedroom that will become a nursery has been used for misc storage over the past 7 years, so I'm in the process of cleaning it out and organizing what's in there. It's crazy how much stuff we've accumulated; most of it is Keegan's baby stuff (outgrown clothes, etc) that just needs sorted and boxed.

For the nursery, I am doing sort of a woodsy, vintage-owl theme. I know that description sounds weird, but you have to picture it with me. :)

These Pottery Barn pillows are my inspiration for the room (and I splurged and bought both):

So, for colors I will pull the browns, pinks, and greens mostly from these pillows.

I also bought these sheets for the crib ($19, Pottery Barn):

They have little trees and owls on them.

I also love how Pottery Barn uses tree decals in the room. I'm too frugal to spend the $90 on them. but I'm wondering if I can just paint them on the wall myself. This is what their version looks like. They have small ones and large ones. I think the pattern looks simple enough for me to paint myself.... but we'll see.

Last, but not least.... I love stuff from Etsy.com (if you aren't familiar with Etsy, check it out! It's a website for people to sell cute homemade stuff). In particular, they have owl wall decals ranging in prices from $9-$18. There are several to choose from and they come in various colors. Here is one as an example:

Can't wait to get the nursery cleared out and start painting!

That's it for now!
