Empy Nest Denial

Just in case you thought I was sitting around doing nothing, here are pictures of my latest project. I am still working on it, but here is the kid's bedroom in our basement. I am excited
to have a fun room for them when they come to visit. I painted the walls with these fun stripes and I hired a guy to build the ledge shelf around the top. I've made two matching quilt sets so that when the crib is no longer needed, there will be two twin beds. The big green square over the desk will have all of the kid's baby pictures hanging there. I still need to get headboards for the twin beds.
This is the same crib that my nephews Jason and Trevor slept in at Nana and Papa's house and then I used it for Grant and Michelle.As you can see, I'm still nesting. I just can't seem to stop.

Fun room! You are so nice to make bedrooms for your family to come stay and visit you. I love the color scheme. It's very happy and homey

I think you have solved my problem about what to do with all my stuffed animals.

It turned out really cute! Can't wait to see it in person. I especially like the ledge shelf. I want those in my kids rooms (at least one of them) when I'm rich.

How cute! You are so creative! We miss you too. By the way, Justin went to Timpanogos.

The room looks great. I really like the stripes. You might have to help me do that to my nursery when we have kids. It's totally awesome!

I found your post while searching for quilt sets. You did a great job - such imagination. I wish we had a spare room that our kids could stay in when they visit...
