Welcome to Jack's Room

I decided I would play along with Kelly's blog and show you Jack's room. Of course it is my most favorite room in our house AND it makes me smile every time I walk in there. I am reminded of how blessed we are to have such a healthy and happy baby boy.

This is the view from the hallway. I LOVE the bedding I chose. It is from Serena and Lily and has been very hard to match, but I knew when as soon as I saw it it would be perfect and so different!





This is the dresser that we chose because it also doubles as a changing table for now. I bought the painted initials on eBay and my very crafty friend Jenny made his wipes case. The bucket for diapers was a 1/2 off find at Hobby Lobby and thanks to some added ribbon it now matches perfectly!



This chair was one of my splurges that I picked custom colors for. I love it and think it makes the room. My mom made the table skirt and the lamp was a love at 1st sight item since I have a thing for elephants! We searched for 8 months for a lamp shade and my mom found this in Atlanta on a shopping trip. It matches perfectly.



I had this painting done by a local artist. She did an awesome job on it. I of course love the elephant and John loves the pig!



If you know me at all, you know I love anything monogrammed (just look at my child's clothes.) My mom made the cornice board and had it monogrammed with Jack's initials. My dear friend Matt had his mom do the striped curtains while I was in the hospital having Jack! (He came 3 weeks early and the fabric came in for the curtains the day he was born.) Talk about timing!



Now some of you have seen this and yes it is a little embarrassing, but this is Jack's closet! I know he will never need any clothes again! It doesn't help that I have a sister and mother who love to shop, a friend who always "drags me" to the sales, and I sort of have a love for clothes too. The child has enough clothes for 2 years I think. AND this is not even counting the 2 HUGE boxes I have already packed away.



Thank you for visiting Jack's room. I can not wait to see all the other adorable room's.
