AHOY!
So...Those of you who know me well, know that I have quite the obsession with NAUTICAL stuff. When I found out I was pregnant with a little boy I knew exactly how I wanted to do his nursery. I had previously done a Ships Ahoy, It's a boy!! shower for my cousin. I was kind of living through her when I did it because it was always the theme I wanted to do for my baby boy. I kept all the decorations I made for it and my baby nursery stemmed from there.
we took this on move in day. 30 weeks pregnant.
Before........

we weren't even in the house for a week when we painted his nursery a beautiful, Nautical blue.

After.......
I started out by painting a yard sale crib this beautiful white color.

I painted this sailboat and these picture frames and filled them with my nautical maternity pics.

I have an obsession with chevron, who doesn't? So we found this awesome chevron fabric and my mom made valances out of it. Isn't she so talented and aren't they perfect?

I am not an artist by any means but I attempted to paint some alphabet canvases and some Nautical canvases....inspiration here: http://www.etsy.com/listing/101785326/nautical-theme-whale-childrens-wall-art?ref=sr_gallery_20&ga_search_query=nautical+canvases&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_page=4&ga_search_type=all

My mom had these old chest-a-drawers that were perfect.

My mom is incredibly talented. When she found out I was pregnant she decided she was going to make his crib bedding. We put our heads together, picked out the fabric and after 2 days at the sewing machine, this is the turn out of the crib quilt. PERFECTION.
