So my grandson is now 7 months old!  Can you believe it's been 7 months?  The worst part is that I just finished the last project for his nursery.  If you didn't read about how my daughter was induced 4 weeks early and how I was in a panic to get the nursery done you can read it here  Obviously, the cruise must have put me into a relaxed state, because here we are 7 months later finishing the nursery.  The last project is his name over the crib...

The letters were given to my daughter at her baby shower and we knew we just needed to bulk them up a bit.  (You can read about her "under construction" baby shower here)  So Mr. Right assembled a 3 fence board sign which I painted black.  We then attached the letters with screws- here's a closer look...

I also wanted to show you the amazing dresser we found at a garage sale for $125- no painting necessary...
The best part, it came with a mirror that I turned into a chalkboard and sold for $95- so the dresser was really $30!  Here's an overall of the room...

The rocker was purchased by my daughter at a yard sale for just $5- I painted it black and great grandma made a cushion to match the bedskirt and bumper pads (the bumper pads have now been removed as Baby Braxton likes to pull off the ties)  The rug (should have taken a close up) is made of strips of leather- Mr. Right and I picked it up for $20 at a garage sale.  So there you have it.  We like to call his room, Industrial Chic.  Let me know what you think.  Love, Kelly.
