These elephants have a home

Now that SJ is officially using his crib, I wanted his room to be complete.

I was JUST about finished with it before his arrival and then…well… you know how that goes…baby comes…nursery waits.

So, today, I got a babysitter and set out on a journey to finalize the wall above his bed.

I ordered these adorable elephant vinyl decals recently for $5 (thanks to my friend Tonya for finding them for me)! I didn’t really haveĀ  a home for them, but I knew I could come up with something.

I ventured off to Hobby Lobby. Found these 3 adorable frames for half-off.

Topped it off with some teal and white striped wrapping paper for a background (that you can’t see in the picture – for some reason it just looks white).

AND voila…these mighty adorable elephants now have a home above SJ’s crib!

I think it finished his room off just perfectly, don’t you?

How cute is SJ sleeping in his new room! Speaking of sleeping….he has been sleeping thru the night for 2 nights in a row! 9:30 pm to 5:45 am!

I’m pretty sure that has nothing to do with the elephants.

I’m still happy to home them anyway.

Very nicely done Mandy. I like the elephant theme. I’ve never seen that in a nursey before.

Mandy, these elephants look right at home now, and I love how the color blends so perfectly with the crib. Theme-wise too you’ve hit it spot on. Love the creativity and love the overall look even more.
