Victoria's Room - Nearly Done :)

Victoria's room is nearly done. There are only a few things that I'd like to get/do and then it will be done. Here are some pictures I took the other day of her room. I patiently waited for a good friend of mine to come home from her honeymoon so I could show her before I posted any pictures anywhere :)
Victoria's bedroom door. I got the wooden 'V' (plain) from one of my friends at my baby shower. I painted it with dark and light purples and applied rhinestones. The "babies room" door knob hanger is from nana Judy.

The view of her room from V's bedroom door. Her cloth diapers and bathing supplies are under the crib. I also made the teething guard from a fleece blanket for the outside rails of the crib so they don't get all chewed up.

The canvas in the centre was ripped off  from pinterest done by yours truly. I made a stencil. The surrounding pictures I just printed with my printer. I want to be able to use around the house one day. I'd like to get an area rug to add to the room. Nothing like a baby with callosed knees because of hardwood floors.

I didn't want the artwork in the nursery to be really 'baby baby-ish'. That and the b&w contrast helps newborns develope their vision.

Ooo! My little girls closet! I don't have a toy bin yet, so for right now, her toys are in the bottom of her closet.
 
I originally had a different clothing organization system that a good friend of mine bought for us, sadly, as I aquired more clothes and items, it didn't fit. Fortunately, we also received this organization system which allows me to fit much more. I couldn't find a dresser that I liked (and there isn't a lot of space in her room) and I couldn't find any baskets that fit in the spaces. I actually make these "baskets" from cardboard boxes from the grocery store. I also made the box liners :)


The back of Victoria's door. A baby sling, a "dressy" diaper bag for when we need to go out and look a little more dressed up and a nija turtles poster :)

I'm going to turn this cute little quilt, bought from a dear family member into a tapestry and hang it on the same wall as her bedroom door.
 
Hospital/diaper bag and my own comfy pillows are ready to bring to the hospital.
 


Chatum is excited to finally meet his little sister soon, too :)
