A new project!

This is my newest project i'm starting. I got this type case at a flea market in montreal when my mom and i went there to visit family. Although i bought this a while back i just got my hands on it when my aunt and uncle went to the cabin with my parents. So i was so excited when they brought it back for me, because i have big plans for it. I got the idea for this on a blog that i love to read daily. It is just my favorite kind of decor it mixes the whole old vintage style with family pictures which i put up everywhere in this house. It is going to be great when i finish it i hope.

The room!

So i didnt have a theme in mind when i decided to start buying things for Coles room, but then i realized that i didnt need a theme, that i could just do whatever i want. So thats what i did. Most of the things i bought for his room i got at thrift stores or antique fairs. I love the look of old things so thats what i went with. Of course the crib was Masons old one, and the curtains were hand made by me of course.






I got those shutters at an antique fair and painted them, and the print on the wall that says his name i got on this awesome website called etsy. Everything on this site is handmade its great. Also the blanket hanging on the crib i made for the baby. I have been really into sewing lately i also made a blanket for Mason which he loves.









That tall shelf i also got at the same antique fair, and the baby scale on top. I went there knowing that i wanted to find a baby scale and i couldnt believe this was the only one i saw all day, so glad i got it. On the other wall is the changing table just on top of robs old dresser which worked out perfect. I love his room, it is exactly what i wanted it to be. I hope everyone is doing good. My due date is changed to the 26th, so hopefully they dont change it again. Talk to everyone soon.

Thirfty Things.

I have been so into going to thrift stores lately. I just love finding things that are different, and of course cheap is always good. I found this chair at one that i go to pretty often right around my house. You will never guess how much i paid, just try. Ok i'll tell you $1 can you believe it.




I felt like i needed something, right in that little corner, to finish it off. I also found this mirror at the same store. I love it looks kinda like stain glass, but it's not.
