Early Nursery Purchases

If you're already tired of hearing reading about my early nursery plans, stop reading this post right now!  If you're not tired of it, or are just tuning in, you can catch up by reading previous nursery posts here, here, and here.   I just love all things nursery, so here we go...

Here are a few items that I have already purchsed or been given so far.  I'm so excited! 

I ordered this map of Africa from amazon.com.  I definitely don't want to go overboard with an Africa theme, but I thought this would be a nice reminder of Hayes's heritage.

 Remember our online silent auction back in March?  Well everyone went crazy for this fabulous print.  Nadia was SO sweet and wanted to donate 3 prints: 2 for the auction and 1 for us to hang in our nusery.  So thoughtful of her!  Here's a link to her etsy shop if you want your own!

I ordered this little print from 1canoe2's etsy shop.  Tennesee pride!  Love it!

I picked up this gem from a local thrift store.  I heart globes!

I ordered these angel wings from a vintage store in New York.  I plan to hang them over a mirror that will hang behind the crib.  Right over our sleeping darling's head.

I picked up this adorable guy from the Zoo Gallery on our beach trip back in May.  The brand is Twoodles and each one is hand made.  I love the pop of color he'll bring to the space!

This item was hard to photograph, but it's a long strand of birds with a bell on the end.  I thought it would be cute hanging on the nursery door.

Here's a close-up of the strand.  Love these colors too!

Here are a few frames I picked up from a local antique store.  I think the little boy sihouette is so cute!

My sweet mother-in-law gave me this frame for Mother's Day.  The phrase written on it is so perfect.  She always finds the sweetest gifts. 

I got this tray on sale at Target for $5.  I love the shimmer it has to it.  I'm going to put this on the dresser to hold lotions, cremes, and all that good baby stuff!

Another sweet gift from my mother-in-law is this adorable lion by blabla.  I think blabla has to be one of the cutest brands for kids.  Love their stuff.

And because every baby needs a binky blanket, I couldn't resist this sweet dog from a local gift store.  It is so soft!  Precious.

So there's the collection of items I've been saving up for months already.  I can't wait to find a place for them as the nursery starts to take shape.
