GET A LOAD OF THIS

Morning y'all....it's Friday can I get an Amen?

I've got an interesting little ditty for you today.....check this out!

This room was photographed about 5 years ago for BH&G but they never used it [if you remember this was a guest room before it was "Baby G's" nursery. ]

Well I saw it in Better Homes and Gardens about a month ago talking about using yellow in a room.

Amazing huh? They changed the wall color and the ceiling color with a little photoshop help.

Call me crazy but yikes I'm not exactly a fan. That is the worst yellow ever.

Here is how it looked when it was transformed into a nursery

I found this quite amusing.

In other news do y'all remember when I posted about some new design books?

Well I got Simplicity by Nancy Braithwaite and Lord....this is one beautiful book. It's like Nancy had me in mind when she designed the outside of this one.

Feast.

The inside cover....but wait....

The outside!

So when you have the cover on you see about an inch of the dots! Brilliant!

Every page is stunning....

But hold on....this bedroom kicked me in the gut....hard.

Can I just copy this somewhere. I mean down to every detail? So classic but just throw in the dots and it's all cray cray right! Imagine without them....just another beige room.

The pages.

Black.

Get it.

I will be working on my ORC this weekend. The days are starting to run together now......with only 288 hours until the reveal.

AND THE WINNER IS.....

Boy am I late with this. I can get sidetracked so easily people.

Kat who blogs at Maple Leaves and Sycamore Trees will receive the package of goodies soon. And....lucky for me she LOVES pillows.

Well who doesn't.

So that is out of the way.....

Today I am guest posting over at Fieldstone Hill Design with a nursery board. Darlene is about to deliver a baby girl any day now so she invited some designers to participate in her series Bebe Bebe Bebe Nursery's.

I got to know Darlene last year when we spoke together at Haven. She is real pretty. And nice.

Plus she is great at Design Boards.

Check it out....

Do not compare this professional looking thing to my hot mess.....

I kept it pretty neutral....for a boy or a girl. I guess I broke the rule since it was supposed to be a more feminine space.

Whoops.

Here is the chandelier I used.

It's kind of one of my favorites.....so why not pretend it would be my nursery. After all I never got to decorate my own :(

I have only done one other baby space...

Baby G's nursery which you can see more of here

I still get emails about this room!

So head over to Darlene's blog to see my rule breaking space.

Shapam!

Baby G's nursery!

Finally it is done and not a moment too soon as she is due on January 7th!!! I am so excited for her and she loves how the space turned out. If you are new to my blog you can go here to see how it looked as a bedroom.

Here is how it looks now.

This is that skanky blue chair recovered in linen and added nail heads. The curtains are drop cloths.

She found this chair on the side of the road and painted it white. We recovered the seat with a Raoul fabric.

Dang..... we ordered these on the internet and I can't remember where right now but I can find out if anyone wants to know. Framed in Ikea frames.

She picked this up somewhere in Atlanta and added the chalk paint knobs.

The lamp is from Pottery Barn, the abacus is from CB2

The white shelves are from Ikea.

That dang bird...I love it! West Elm.

I loved this when I saw it at West Elm...kind of like a mobile.

Cuteness...

She went to Auburn....duh.

Anthropologie!

Bathroom...shower curtain.

Do you need this many?

The closet! Love the AC DC t shirt!

It totally suits her personality if you knew her! Hope you guys like it too :)

We are at the beach and it is freezing here. I had to go buy a space heater for my feet cause I can't get warm......
