home tour continued: baby nursery



a friend of ours made this little bookshelf for us, which looks a lot like the pottery barn shelves i had been eyeing. score!


^^^ the zigzags are covering up his name, which i debated on sharing already since i'm really excited about the letter project i saved so much money on! anthropologie has zinc letters for $18 each, which i didn't want to spend. instead, i got some hollow cardboard letters from hobby lobby on sale for $1 each and sprayed them with titanium metal paint. you would never know they are paper and light as a feather!



one of the first pieces i bought for the room was this pillow, on clearance at target. i loved the color combination and used it as my inspiration for the room. 


those of you who know me, know that i'm a *tad* obsessed with aerosmith... so when i saw this metal art, i knew i HAD to have it for the nursery!

i wanted something untraditional for his mobile, and i thought this fit right in with the room.



i love that fisher price is selling all of these old school toys as new again, with a vintage twist. i found so many rock n roll themed baby books on amazon too... who knew?!


i ordered the free trial diaper kit from the honest company. their diaper designs are super cute and i love that if you sign up, they get delivered to your doorstep monthly. i'm just waiting to see how absorbent they are. if you have used them, let me know your thoughts!


my awesome and SUPER thoughtful friend rachael gave me this framed print after she found out i was doing a rock music themed room. it's the lyrics to john lennon's "beautiful boy" song. and it's possible that i cry every time i hear this song. ;)



one of my all time favorite songs... i loved these music sheet prints i found on easy and special ordered one with these elton john lyrics. 


my favorite little nook in the room. i WISH i could find an actual yellow submarine album cover, but until then i had this printed. i love the colors and cartoon look of it... and of course i love the beatles! also pictured is a little beatles submarine i found on amazon and a few rockabye baby cd's... they are my FAVE! we had the aerosmith one for our daughter and recently added elton john and the beatles to the collection. if you're not familiar, they are music only lullaby versions of artist's hit songs. selfishly i enjoy these much more than kid songs... and i get to subliminally brainwash my kids to recognize the music of my favorite rock artists! bonus!
