The day has come, my friends. Welcome to Blinky's room.
Here's a secret. The "A" is a placeholder. Sort of. If it's a boy, I have to go find another letter. If it's a girl, it stays. The silhouette is also a placeholder until Blink comes along and I can do a real one.
There's entertainment everywhere, books on the right, Ipod dock on the left.
DIY cribskirt. It was kind of a pain in the ass. Just an FYI.
See that orange egg crate on the floor? You know where I got it? Kim sent it to me. Why? Cuz she's awesome.
Extreme doorknob close-up Wuuuahhhhhhh!!!
Tiny bathrobes? I die.
Limited clothing here, folks. Sad, isn't it?
Oh look, another placeholer. The bulletin board is takng the place of some yet-to-be-completed artwork that I commissioned my best friend to make.
So yeah, that's it. I kinda love it. I'm sure Blink will too.

LOVE IT! It looks awesome - and I love how you did it all inexpensively!
LOVEEEE!!! and that Kim is fab isn't she? Tommy's toys are in an egg crate, too. All the cool babies, ya know.
I love the wall color and that it allows the furnishings to take center stage. And the vingette above the dresser makes me swoon!
One word (and it's your word)...
ADORBS!!!! It looks awesome!
Almost time!!
Wow. That looks so awesome! I almost got a little teared up picturing you rocking the baby in that chair.
I love all the little birdies!
Dude- when I get knocked up, I'm hiring you to design the nursery.
You are so talented! Please come over to my place and help!
Dude, looks amazing! Thanks so much for setting this up for me. I will be over tonight and in bed before 8. I also need to stop by Burlington apparantly. I didn't even know they sold curtains. Good score.
Love it!! The colors are just perfect together! Great job!
Shut. Up. Shutup. This is awesome! I LOVE. You did such a spectacular job! I need to pick up the pace! I have the furniture and rug, but none of the cute, personal doo-dads and artistic things you have! I need to get on that. Thanks for making me feel incompetent!
But seriously. Kickass.
Gosh Shannon everything looks so perfect... I swear I wouldn't change a thing great job!
Blinky wants....

Nursery = Super Awesome
Gorgeous! The curtains are my favorite part, with the birdie pictures a very close second.
I am seriously tearing up. This nursery is perfection. Honestly. I love it all. The bird canvases (you should sell those), the embroidered hoop (you should sell those), the letter and things about the dresser, the dresser. I just looked at the post 4 or 5 times so I could take it all in.
And, I'm so glad you like the egg crate. It kinda goes, doesn't it?
Oh... and the curtains and pennant. LOVES.
And, you have my favorite type of crib, too.
Looks awesome. Don't worry- the clothes comes. I was OVERWHELMED with people stopping by with ridick outfits that are awesome/cute/to die for/etc.
I'm so excited for you!
SHUT UP. This looks like it's straight out of "Martha Stewart for Kids with Parents Who Are The Shiz".
Daaang. If Blinky doesn't like his/her digs, can I move in? :)
your room is beautiful! i just love it.
my favorite area is the changing table area. the red dresser is unreal! i just love it? did you paint it? what color did you use? how did you paint it?
i also adore the little bird mobile. tooo freakin cute!
It looks lovely! Great job!
Oh I looove this space! Your little person will love it. You did an amazing job!
Now all of you need is an Etsy beanie, and you're good to go!
I adore your nursery! Blinky is so lucky!! The bird mobile you made with your friends looks so great!
that is absolutely adorable!!!! i love how that will work for either a boy or a girl. and i totally want to have those bird art squares. i thought for sure you were going to say you bought them! love love love it!
Lovely! So inviting and fun!
great room... I followed your YHL post over here. I laughed when I saw you shop etsy for ideas - I do that too!!... how reassuring... I just whipped up a modern family tree (the cross-section styled one) in no time. Best of luck with baby (I'm on mat leave with kid #2, now 3 months and a 2 year old - have embraced the chaos).
The nursery came about absolutely amazing! I love it and I cannot wait to hear about Blinky's arrival soon. Congrats on the YHL feature, too!
We bought the non-drop-side Jenny Lind, too! Love it!
I found you through YHL and then kept lookin around...great stuff you have here!! I loooove the nursery!
Your nursery is beautiful! What a gorgeous place for baby! I just found your blog through my friend Holly (life in the fun lane)! I also wanna say I love how you and Holly have those sweet pom poms instead of the typical mobile!!! Love it!

one of the cutest nurseries I have ever seen. love it all!
this nursery is absolutely GORGEOUS
I love your nursery! We are doing a bird theme and I definitely used this room for inspiration. I was able to make my own canvas bird pictures that have been a crowd favorite for visitors. Thanks for the great ideas!
