Finally Pictures of Addison's Room

So I can finally post pictures of Addison's room. Her crib took forever to get here, that's okay though because they gave me some money back for the delay. And let me tell ya some money back on this thing just made it reasonable. Both end panels are carved, so beautiful! I love how the room turned out, a good mix of contemporary and traditional. There's still some little touches I want to do but thought I had better get these up before Ann divorced me as a friend. The inside of the crib. This little birdy was a shower present. One of Ryan's co-workers, after seeing the draw pulls I painted, picked this up for us. I don't much care for stuffed animals but this one is perfect.
My Mom made the bumper pad and sheets for the crib. Thank you Grandma Worlton for the mattress and bumper pad insert. And I absolutely love the skirt! This is the inspiration for the whole room. Year back I saw a iridescent orange crib skirt and fell in love with how unusual it was. When we found out Addison was going to be a girl I knew exactly what my starting point for her room would be. It's so much lovelier in person. It has pink shots of color moving through it an dazzles in the sun.The dresser with little birdy pulls and the mirrors as I previously posted. Here they are all together.
This painting that Tiffany did brings so much color into the room and I love it! As you may have noticed I still have not covered the big ugly green chair, lovingly referred to as the Oscar (as in the grouch) chair. I just can't find the fabric I want for cheap. I don't want to spend $500 on a slip cover, you know? But the chair is great for in the middle of the night. Oscar keeps you nice and warm. Notice the little quilt blocks above her closet. Thank you Pat!
While my Dad was out here in December he was busy in the garage painting. Come to find out he was painting a picture for Addison of the day she was born. It's a picture of a barn, field, and blizzard. My sister Summer made Addison this quilt for her bed. It's a perfect blend of colors and traditional and contemporary designs. While she's little we'll keep it on the wall and later move it to her crib.

  1. Yeah. It's about stinkin' time. Everything looks amazing, but I still wish I could see it all together in person. Tell me more about hte crystal hangings over Addison's crib...they look cool? Are thy light fixtures or just for decor? Did you design them? Where did you get all the crystals?
    I miss you, Brooke.
