One week from today we will be welcoming Little Miss Marleigh into the world! It feels like only yesterday, we found out she was on the way! Wow! This pregnancy has flown by even though we've had our fair share of health concerns on both of our parts! Now we are just so excited to finally get to meet this little one that has already caused so much joy and excitement!
Tonight we pretty much finished up her room, so that makes it even more real! We have a few finishing touches left to add, but many family and friends have been dying to see the progress, so here it is!!! I think all we have left is: getting the new cushions for the glider (We bought some upholstery fabric, and my uncle is making us new cushions to match the nursery.) and getting the canvases. (Our decorator is working on two canvases to go on each side of the window -- one has a tiara and the other will have a crown I believe -- she is using scripture on them refering to God's princess.) We have been so blessed. I have been tutoring a sweet little girl in my neighborhood and her mother is into interior design. She has done many nurseries, and she pretty much did everything you see in Marleigh's nursery! I did pick out the bedding and the paint colors. Believe it or not Tim and I hung the letters abover her bed, and I painted and decorated her initials over the changing table. I give Alicia all the credit for everything else!!! She is great about using what you already have which really saved us a bundle! The lamp you see was the lamp from D's nursery that she did in ribbon. The curtains were from D's nursery and she fancied them up too! She even made the yellow blanket/tablecloth on the little round table!
Anyway, I would love to hear your thoughts on how everything is looking or even suggestions! We sort of went for a whimsical/shabby chic approach. We are still debating on changing out the fan for a chandelier. We haven't seen just what we are picturing yet at a price we are willing to pay that is!!!

OMG!!!! Love it, love it, love it!!! I am soo jealous!!! Marleigh is going to have the most beautiful room ever!!!
It’s gorgeous! You did a great job with the contrasting colors. Are you having a C-section again or a vbac?
I LOVE IT! This is quite possibly the CUTEST nursery I have ever seen!! Great job!
I love it! it is perfect! I can't belive how different the room looks. Can't wait for there to be a beautiful baby girl in there. See you soon!!!
The room really is precious, Amanda. She'll love it! I love that the colors extend to the ceiling too - great job!

WOW, her room is adorable. Inspiring. I'm trying to work up ideas in my head for Lindsay's big girl room! A friend of mine scored floor model chandeliers from home depot for next to nothing. You may want to go see what they have in stock and what's being discontinued etc and start watching it. She got a 250$ one for like 25$ and she just had to replace one or two crystals and clean it up a bit. It looks GORGEOUS! Good luck next week! Enjoy the last few days and try to pamper yourself a bit!!!
I can't wait to see pics of Marleigh. Her room is beautiful. I really love the curtains
